Garage Find: 1967 Chevrolet Camaro

For many, the first-generation Camaro was the best. Those three production years, 1967-1969, saw just shy of 700,000 copies produced and there are many still prowling the streets of America. Finding an unmodified or already restored example is becoming… more»

Good To Be Green: 1975 Ford Bronco

Muscle Project: 1967 Pontiac GTO

The “Who started the muscle car” argument has raged on for many years. While some will pin it on the ’49 Oldsmobile “Rocket 88” while others will sign up Hudson and its legendary “Twin H” Hornet as the commencement…. more»

Blue Chip Buick! 1971 Gran Sport GSX

Buick hit a home run in 1970 with the redesign of their intermediate Skylark-based Gran Sport. Coming on the heels of the 1969 version with its more controversial styling, the 1970 version was buttoned-down, refined and looked like it… more»

Split Window Wonderful: 1963 Chevrolet Corvette

There’s not much more that can be said about a ’63 split-window Corvette that hasn’t already been said. I know there’s not much else that I can add and there are C2 Corvette enthusiasts that have probably forgotten more… more»

Four Door Survivor: 1974 Chevrolet Nova

What’s special about a 1974 Chevrolet Nova four-door sedan? Nothing really except that Chevrolet sold about 391,000 Novas in a recession year and that had to be comfort of some degree. The Nova SS coupe was still available in… more»

22K Mile Barn Find: 1984 Hurst Oldsmobile

I recently read a buyer’s guide article on mid-’80s Hurst Oldsmobiles and found it to be very interesting. I was aware of Hurst’s involvement with Oldsmobile back in the ‘80s but I had moved completely away from domestic iron… more»

1969 Plymouth Road Runner Convertible Barn Find

All Original Barn Find: 1940 Chevrolet Special Deluxe

Generally, I come across more Fords from the ’39-’41 era and many of them, I’m sure, to the chagrin of Ford fans, possess small-block Chevrolet engines. Lately, however, I have been finding more Chevrolets from that era (and no,… more»

Stored 25 Years: 1969 Plymouth Barracuda

High-performance versions of pony cars get all of the press. Especially if it is one from the classic 1964-1972 period. Sometimes, it’s just nice to reflect on a more pedestrian version especially keeping in mind that the majority of… more»

Big-Block Power: 1966 Chevrolet Caprice 396

It’s one of my favorites, a full-size 1966 Chevrolet “B” body. I like them all, especially the Impala convertible as I owned one for seven years back in the ’90s. While the two-door hardtops and convertibles possess the most… more»

39K Mile Survivor: 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z28

Sometime back I wrote an article about a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z28, located in New Jersey, that had met the fate that so many first-generation Z28s met, loss of the original engine! Once I got to that part in… more»

Pretty In Pink: 1963 Willys Surrey Gala Jeep

Jeeps are all the rage these days. Doesn’t matter if it’s a Wrangler, Grand Cherokee or a new Gladiator, they sell. Jeep, along with its truck sibling division Ram, is pretty much, financially, holding up the entire FCA shebang…. more»

Richard Petty Tribute: 1992 Pontiac Grand Prix

It has been a long time since a NASCAR stock car was actually a modified stock production vehicle, years and years. Cup cars were stuck in a mid-sixties time warp for a long time and as production vehicles went… more»

Closing In On A Century: 1924 Studebaker Light-Six
