Rare 383 Big-Block! 1968 Dodge Dart GTS
In the pantheon of Mopar muscle, I have to confess, the ’67-’69 Dodge Dart is my favorite. I know, that sounds strange when you consider Chrysler Corp.’s performance portfolio in the late ’60s/early ’70s with cars like the Charger,… more»

Restoration Started: 1952 Jaguar XK120
How can you not know a Jaguar XK120 when you see one? It has some of the most distinctive lines on wheels and is indelibly seared in my memory by Lesney’s No. 32 Matchbox example from the early ’60s…. more»

Project In Progress: 1963 Studebaker Gran Turismo Hawk
With cars like the Avanti and the Gran Turismo Hawk, it’s safe to say that Studebaker went down swinging! By 1963, the sun was setting on independent Studebaker leaving, besides themselves, only American Motors and Kaiser-Jeep to do battle… more»

Ready For Finishing: 1968 Plymouth Road Runner
My favorite year! No, not chronologically, I mean my favorite year Plymouth Road Runner. Sometimes, the first is the best and that’s how I vote on the ’68 edition. This Road Runner isn’t exactly a “runner” but it’s still… more»

396 Turbo-Jet! 1968 Chevrolet Caprice Coupe
I have been covering a lot of full-size American hardtops and sedans as of late, and of course, the erstwhile Chevrolet Impala always makes the cut. It’s pure math, there were so many built from the late ’50s through… more»

55K Mile Survivor: 1968 Dodge Coronet
Time to take a look at another example of the non-muscle car version of a muscle car (it should probably be the other way around). Anyway, this 1968 Dodge Coronet is the generic version of Dodge’s mid-size model that… more»

Full-size car, full-size power, and a four-speed manual gearbox to boot, what’s not to like? Talk about by-gone times but that’s how things were in the late ’60s. Ford, Chevrolet, Pontiac, Dodge, and Plymouth all offered four-speed manual transmissions… more»
