Show of hands if you remember Nissan’s Maxima station wagon. I’d completely forgotten such an animal existed until I noticed this listing for a 1987 model surfaced by Mitchell G. It is in surprisingly nice condition and has to… more»

Original And Complete: 1930 Ford Model A
Purity! That’s why I selected this 1930 Ford Model A to review. Now, purity doesn’t necessarily mean cleanliness; no, I’m thinking more along the lines of “original”, “as intended”, “not messed with”, and that’s what I see in this… more»

Barn Bound For 30 Years: 1955 Ford Customline

22″ Hoops! 1988 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme
The sun was setting on GM’s rear-wheel-drive intermediates (G-body) cars in ’88. It was down to just two, the Chevrolet Monte Carlo and the Oldsmobile Cutlass, such as today’s topic, a Cutlass Supreme Classic. For Oldsmobile, it had been… more»

4-Speed Sprint! 1964 Ford Falcon Convertible
Ford was working on a lot of excitement back in 1964. The April introduction of the Mustang was, of course, internationally newsworthy (even Ian Fleming’s blockbuster Goldfinger, filmed in ’64, featured the new pony car), and the lowly compact… more»

V8 Coupe: 1993 Lexus SC 400
A 1993 Lexus SC 400 is hardly the general fare for Barn Finds. Actually, Lexus’s (or is it Lexi?) don’t make the cut often, and that’s with good reason; they’re generally not the stuff of what’s been found, languishing… more»

Hardtop Station Wagon: 1962 Chrysler Newport
Two, well, actually three, things struck me when reviewing the listing for this 1962 Chrysler Newport Town & Country wagon. First is its color, second is its four-door hardtop configuration – unusual for a station wagon, and three is… more»

Survivor Class: 1969 Buick LeSabre
A 1969 Buick LeSabre made me miss Physics class! How’s that for an opening? It’s a true story, and more on that later. Anyway, these were everywhere-cars at one time, 162K LeSabres were assembled in 1969 alone, helping to… more»

First Year Galaxie: 1959 Ford At No Reserve
Way back when, I recall a 1959 Ford four-door sedan occupying a place in our family’s motor pool. It was a Custom trim level, wore a dull gray hue, and was powered by a six-cylinder engine. As a wee-tike,… more»

LT-1 Power: 1994 Chevrolet Caprice Wagon
Man, that’s a lot of wood! This baby looks more like a cabin cruiser than a car, but no, it’s a 1994 Chevrolet Caprice station wagon – a very popular model at least in sedan form. And of course,… more»

Slightly Crispy: 1936 Studebaker Dictator
What’s in a name, right? Automobile models come and go, as do their names; some are memorable and venerable, others not so much so. President? That’s a good one; so’s Commander – it’s unassuming. Crown? That denotes high ranking…. more»

Bronco Alternative? 1967 International Scout
If you’ve watched the prices for original Ford Broncos (’66-’77), you’ll notice that they’ve reached nuckin’ futz territory. I find the phenomenon perplexing for a utility vehicle that is, how should I say it, so agrarian in nature. Whatever,… more»

Reasonably Priced: 1977 Plymouth Sport Fury
Talk about a car that can’t make up its mind! Plymouth’s Fury nameplate (’59-’78) bounced back and forth between full-size and mid-size more times than a motivated but failed dieter. Today’s find, a 1977 Sport Fury two-door coupe, is… more»
