One thing that I have noticed recently is how many of these depression-era Plymouths have been turning up – and it’s a good thing! The early 30s were dominated by Ford and Chevrolet but Plymouth was hardly an also-ran… more»
Deuce And A Quarter: 1969 Buick Electra Drop-Top
Yes, it’s a beast, all 225 inches and 4500 lbs. of Buick’s 1969 top dog, the Electra 225 – and in this case, it’s a drop-top. Other than some spooky and goofy-looking headlights, this big baby looks as the… more»
Solid Restoration Candidate: 1967 Oldsmobile 442
Last week I covered this 1967 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme that was being pawned off as a 442 performance variant but I had my doubts and so did all of you. One regular commenter noted that the car in question… more»
Pink Slip Included! 1965 Triumph TR4
I’ll admit that I’m not a British sports car aficionado but regardless, I admire them for their simplicity and their no-frills approach to the open-top, two-seater road experience. Yes, I am aware that there can be reliability and rust… more»
One of Two? 1969 Chevrolet Corvette 427 ZL1

Seldom Seen Sliding Top! 1951 Nash Airflyte
Well, here’s another that I have managed to miss, it’s a 1951 Nash Rambler Airflyte convertible with a sliding top. Perhaps I should refer to it as a “Cabrio coach” as the fabric top slides but there is a… more»
Stunning One-Of-A-Kind? 1991 Volvo 240
At least that’s what the seller would like us to believe. I’ll admit it, this 1991 Volvo 240 is in spectacular condition despite its recorded 156K miles. But one-of-a-kind? C’mon man! Volvo built somewhere near 2.8 M 240s over… more»
Full-Size Hot Rod: 1968 Chevrolet 427 Biscayne
One model of Chevrolet that has been dead for a long time is the Biscayne, a bottom-of-the-ladder trim level that was in existence from 1958 through 1972 (continuing to ’75 in Canada). It was technically undercut in its first… more»
Ran When Parked: 1950 Ford Custom
