The Chrysler 300 letter series cars are an unusual concept when you think about it. In the sixties, Chrysler competed with Buick, and the more entry-level Cadillac (to the extent that such a thing ever existed), and I suppose… more»
Body Work Completed: 1952 Singer Nine 4A
Every time that I come across a Singer automobile, it’s the Singer sewing machine that’s the first thing that passes through my mind. There’s not a relationship, it’s just an example of brand name recognition and strength. Singer Motors… more»
Originality Abounds! 1969 Chevrolet El Camino
It’s becoming a rarity to find a classic Chevrolet El Camino, such as this 1969 example that is still in its original, non-messed with form – how unusual! This Mendham, New Jersey resident really shows well with no sign… more»
Drive It Anywhere: 1966 Mercedes 230
When I first spied the listing for this 1966 Mercedes-Benz 230 I thought, “That’s interesting, the car has been photographed inside the lobby of an office building”. Well, upon further review that’s not the case, it’s on the outside… more»
Rare Safari Roof! 1963 Land Rover IIA

Petty Approved: 1978 Dodge Aspen Kit Car
When I spotted this 1978 Dodge Aspen Kit Car, inspired by Richard Petty, I thought, here we go, some goober got an old Dodge and plastered a pair of “43” decals on its doors so he could play Cup… more»
Clean And Reasonable: 1971 International Travelall
For many, International is either a forgotten or unknown auto manufacturer. Sure, their class eight tractors, sold under the Navistar brand, are common but their automobile biz has been gone for at least 40 years. We do cover International… more»
Ultra High Compression: 1962 Oldsmobile Starfire
Well, at first glance it looks like the Star and the Fire have gone out of this 1962 Oldsmobile. It’s rough around the edges and looks like it has spent a lot of outdoor time in top-down mode. Regardless,… more»
Convertible Project: 1969 Mercury Cougar 351
Of all the domestic automobile marques that have disappeared as of late, Mercury is the one that has faded the fastest for me. Both Plymouth and Oldsmobile have been gone longer but Plymouth’s memory, at least here on BF,… more»
17k Original Miles: 1972 Chevrolet Caprice
Subjectively speaking, I would suggest that 1972’s full-size Chevrolet B-body cars were the last of those endowed with an attractive, balanced appearance. While the ’71 and ’72 editions, such as today’s find, a ’72 Caprice coupe, are considerably larger… more»
Good Buy? 1973 Jaguar XJ6 For $3,000

Super Sharp: 1967 Chevrolet SS 427 4-Speed
Today’s find, a 1967 Chevrolet SS 427 hardtop is one of Chevy’s more confusing models. I’ll do my best to explain the model/package arrangement but in the interim, this is one of 2,124 SS 427s produced in ’67 and… more»
Clean As A Whistle! 1979 GMC Suburban 4X4
Looking like the cover of the 1979 GMC Suburban sales catalog, today’s find, a four-wheel drive Sierra edition is as clean and tidy an example as you are likely to find. While interest in GM’s “Square Body” (’73-’87) pickup… more»

Diamond In The Rough? 1964 Ford Galaxie 500/XL
This 1964 Ford Galaxie 500/XL convertible is, unfortunately, following an oft-told tale. The seller tells us that he is selling the car for the widow of its owner – now that he has passed, she no longer desires to… more»
Coulda Been In Pictures! 1971 Lincoln Mark III
A couple of weeks ago, I was looking at one of the TV movie channels and it was showing 1971’s “The French Connection“. I was actually more mesmerized by NYC’s early ’70s grittiness than I was the famous Pontiac… more»
