1971 Ford Bronco: 4×4 Fixer Upper

Growing up in Wyoming, Ford Broncos were dime a dozen. Over the years I’ve watched their numbers dwindle. Many were wrecked, crushed, or shipped out of state. It’s now getting difficult to find clean examples, even in my home… more»

1984 Buick Grand National: Future Classic

It’s funny how we tend to view classic cars as only being a certain range of years, as if time stands still. Sadly, each year we all get a little older and so does everything else. That once unloved… more»

1951 Ford F1: Ready For Duty

While it’s fun to bring an old vehicle back to the road, there is something to be said about buying one that is already running. This Ford F1 had been in barn storage for at least the past 15 years…. more»

Micro Dragster: 1950 Crosley Wagon

Looking at this tiny Crosley wagon, you can tell something just isn’t quite right (and no I don’t mean the styling)! The rear wheels stick out to far and the whole car is sitting too high, but once you… more»

1965 Mustang Convertible: Summer Fun

It finally feels like summer here in Boise, which for us means spirited evening drives in our classic cars! All winter we look forward to these early days of summer, when the weather is warm enough to put the… more»

1932 Chevy: Saved From The Chrusher

It makes me wince every time I think about the cars that have met their demise at the hands of a crusher. Being smashed into a cube to be transported to a recycling center is a sad way to… more»

1954 Corvette: Abandoned Project

It happens all too often, someone comes across a barn find, buys it, pulls it home, and starts tearing it apart. Then as life goes, other things get in the way and the project is left in pieces. The… more»

Pint-Sized Porsche 936 Full-Size Price!

At first glance this might look like one of the Le Mans winning Porsche 936s, but as you begin to look closer you will notice that the proportions are all off. The seat is just too big for the… more»

1936 Plymouth Business Coupe: Barn Fresh

I don’t know what it is about seeing an old car peeking out of a barn with farm equipment surrounding it, but something about that image sends a chill down my spine everytime I see it! I’m not huge… more»

Cleans Up Nicely: 1974 VW Karmann Ghia

One of the most gratifying parts of reviving a barn find is washing off the years of dust and grime to see what the car really looks like. Of course when I’m buying a car online, I prefer to… more»

1982 Porsche 928: Cheap Supercar

Rear wheel drive. Check. 50/50 weight balance. Check. Two doors. Check. V8 power. Check. When we think of the ’70s and ’80s front engined Porsches today, we think of mild performance and mechanical nightmares, but when the 928 was… more»

1957 Corvette: Latham Supercharger

Customization is nothing new, people have been bolting on upgrades almost since the automobile was first created. Corvette upgrades aren’t that uncommon, but this Vette had a very special upgrade added to it very early in its life. The… more»

105 Year Old Survivor: 1910 Buick Runabout

1957 Chevrolet Bel Air: Tuition Money

We do a lot of things for our children, even give up our classic cars. That is exactly what is happening with this ’57 Chevy. The seller purchased it out of a large Chevrolet collection. It had been parked… more»

1939 Crosley Convertible: Tiny Drop Top

When I think of pre-1940’s American cars, I picture large sedans with art deco styling and massive flathead engines, but one American manufacturer went against the norm and tried to build something compact and efficient long before any fuel crises mandated… more»

1962 Rambler American: Compact Convertible

If you have a hankering for a fun little convertible, but would prefer to have something domestic there really aren’t a lot of options available. As a matter of fact I can’t think of many small classic American convertibles. We… more»
