This is quite a combination of outrageous 1959 Chevy batwing styling combined with a seldomly seen sedan delivery body style. Add in a little hot rod style and voila’, you have this sharp-looking Chevy cruiser. The seller states, “This… more»

Some Assembly Required: 1936 Ford Tudor
I got pretty excited when I first spied this 1936 Ford Tudor. The seller considers it a survivor and looking at the images, I initially agreed. Digging in further, however, I hesitated on that description and I will show… more»

Clean As A Whistle! 1982 Chevrolet El Camino
I’m on the fence with the final El Camino generation, such as this 1982 example. I’m a Camino fan but most of my fandom has to do with gen-3 (’68-’72). Gen-4 is in fuggedaboutit territory but gen-5? Depends, good… more»

400 V8 Powered! 1968 Buick Sportwagon
Buick was an on-again/off-again builder of station wagons but they tried to keep things interesting with models like this 1968 Custom “Sportwagon”. The seller suggests, “The wagon you’ve been waiting for“. Well, I don’t know about that, let’s see… more»

Inexpensive Project? 1966 Dodge Coronet 500
OK, it’s a muscle car body without the muscle! Or at least that’s how it presents itself with the blacked-out hood. Actually, the 1966 Dodge Coronet could pack a punch, if so optioned, and had great lines to accentuate… more»

OK, let’s momentarily ditch the sugary diet of GTOs, Mustangs, Chargers, et al. and take a look at what I would consider to be a quirky car, but one that had some spirited moves, a 1974 Saab EMS. OK,… more»

Reduced Price: 1928 Chevrolet National Pickup
This 1928 Chevrolet one-ton, pickup truck struck me as interesting. Being a ’28 would make this a one-year-only AB National model, but I don’t recall encountering a one-ton version; prior discoveries have been of lighter capacity examples. Claimed as… more»

Rare Last Year Zephyr: 1942 Lincoln Coupe
Now we’re talkin’ rare! Most 1942 model year domestic cars, regardless of marque, are rare as a result of WWII and the resulting abbreviated production schedule. In most cases, auto assembly ceased in January or February of that year… more»

27K Original Miles? 1973 Chevrolet Monte Carlo
Well, it’s brown but it’s 1973 too and both go hand in hand. But it’s also a second-gen (’73-’77) Chevrolet Monte Carlo and they don’t get a lot of coverage, at least not to the extent that the first-gen… more»

Monzilla! 1979 Chevrolet Monza 4X4
And now it’s time for something from the “just because you can, doesn’t mean that you should” department. I guess it’s a metamorphosis of sorts for a generally unliked, and unwanted malaise-era Chevy Monza with a bodacious attempt to… more»

Blue Chip Investment? 1961 Lincoln Continental Convertible
Oh, how the mighty have fallen! Or so it seems when one finds an inaugural year example of designer Elwood Engel’s fabulous 1961 Lincoln Continental in such deplorable shape. Well, at least it’s still with us and hasn’t been… more»

421 Tri-Power 4-Speed! 1966 Pontiac Ventura
Talk about Pontiac in 1966 and most enthusiasts glam on to the GTO, but the Tin Indian division was so much more so in that halcyon year. The big cars, like this 1966 Ventura hardtop, just oozed power, luxury,… more»

350 HP 327! 1965 Chevrolet Chevelle L79
All eyes were on Pontiac’s GTO in 1965 but Chevrolet wasn’t about to roll over and let John DeLorean’s division make off with all of the hot-rod fun. In typical fashion, Chevrolet chose to do battle with a new… more»

Garaged 30 Years: 1962 Triumph TR3B
Triumph TR3s are no stranger to Barn Finds but they are to me as I have covered 4s, 6s, and 7s but I don’t believe that I have eyeballed a 3. This 1962 example is referenced as a garage… more»

Rare Color? No Reserve 1970 Chevrolet Corvette
The seller of this 1970 Chevrolet Corvette considers it to be rare due to its Laguna Gray color. Apparently of the 17,316 ‘Vettes produced that year, 1,300, or 7.5% were so finished. So, rare? Depends on one’s definition of… more»

Original And Complete! 1974 Triumph TR6
Along with the Sunbeam Alpine/Tiger, the TR6 is one of my favorite sportscars. We’re talking just skin deep here because I’m only considering the design and appearance. Yeah, I know, pretty weak for a car guy but like many,… more»
