Lovely Lark! 1961 Studebaker Station Wagon

We’ve seen how popular old station wagons have become. Some of that may be because we have fond memories as kids banging around in the suburbs while sliding around in the rear-facing third seat and gazing at the passing… more»

Column Shift? 1972 Chevrolet Camaro RS

Styling is always subjective. I remember when the second-gen Chevrolet Camaro (’70-’81) was introduced in February of ’70, and I was, at first, very on the fence with the design. I came to like the first four years, tolerated… more»

What’s Wrong With It? 1984 Alfa Romeo Spider

OK, we’ve reviewed cars from “Just Donated” before, and it’s often evident why they’ve been donated. As a matter of fact, some that I have covered have looked like they need to be undonated. But that’s not the case… more»

Four-Door Fun: 1969 Ford Galaxie 500

It seemed unlikely, long ago, that a 1969 Ford Galaxie 500, four-door sedan would still be plying the streets 56 years after the fact. But, here’s the evidence, and I’d suggest that it’s a pretty nice specimen. Someone’s taken… more»

Rare Convertible: 1967 Ford Fairlane GTA 390

Years ago, I had a thing for Ford’s ’66 and ’67 Fairlane. The “thing” passed, and I moved on to others. But even back then, as is the case today, the convertible version was seldom seen—and that’s what caught… more»

Frenchman On The Cheap? 1985 Pontiac Parisienne

Are we speakin’ French? Nope, just sounds like it as today’s review of a 1985 Pontiac sounds like a French model with its Parisienne name – but it’s not. Built in either Oshawa, Ontario, or Kansas City, Kansas, this… more»

Stripped Survivor: 1961 Chevrolet BelAir Sedan

Talk about originality—this 1961 Chevrolet BelAir four-door sedan is in fabulous 1961 condition! The amazing thing is that it’s not an Impala, just an ordinary, low-content BelAir four-door sedan, and it has survived the test of time – unaltered,… more»

California Special? 1968 Chevrolet El Camino SS396

California Special huh? Well, that’s what the seller claims regarding this 1968 Chevrolet El Camino SS396. That’s a new one on me, but maybe I have missed something somewhere – and maybe some of you can shine some light… more»

Mach 1 Project: 1970 Ford Mustang

41,000! That’s how many 1970 Ford Mustang Mach 1s were assembled, and by my count, I think we have reviewed every single one! Well, when enough’s just right, too much is perfect or something like that. Here’s another, but… more»

Bucket Seat Option: 1969 Chrysler 300

Long and low is one way to describe this 1969 Chrysler 300—the fuselage-styled body certainly makes a visual statement. Parked in 1989 and garaged ever since, this outsized two-door hardtop is looking for a fresh start with a new… more»

Shooting Brake Garage Find: 1972 Volvo 1800 ES

I’ve always had a “thing” for Volvo’s 1800 and the shooting brake ES version, well, that’s even better – functionality wrapped up in a sporty package. Today’s 1972 example, discovered in a York, Pennsylvania parking garage and sitting for… more»

Next Big Collectible? 1990 Chevrolet 454 SS

SS 454! That single model designation was Chevrolet’s big news in 1970 and today, 55 years later, it means huge $$$ in the collector car market. And, while the hype continued through 1973 (the ’73 was an odd duck… more»

29K Miles! 2005 Lincoln Town Car “Signature”

Last week I wrote a post on a 1954 Lincoln Cosmopolitan and noted that it looked more like a refined Mercury than it did a Lincoln – it just wasn’t the visual I get when I hear the name… more»

One Of Just 3K! 1954 Lincoln Cosmopolitan

Until I reviewed the listing for this 1954 Lincoln Cosmopolitan, I hadn’t given Lincolns of this era much consideration – it seems that when the name Lincoln is mentioned, I automatically think of Elwood Engel’s magnificent “Continental” design (’61-’69)…. more»

Clean As A Whistle: 1976 Porsche 912E

I’ve covered Porsche 912s here on BF  before, but they’ve always been the first-gen (’65-’69) variety. Today, for your review, I have a very sharp-looking second-gen 1976 912E to consider. If looks could kill, this baby has them, but… more»

Big Bubba Jones’ 1968 Chevrolet Camaro

We’ve probably covered 34,671 Chevrolet Camaros from its sophomore year of 1968, but it’s a sure bet that we haven’t reviewed a ’68 sorta race car Camaro belonging to “Big Bubba Jones”. Now, I don’t know much about Big… more»
