Hot Rod Lincoln And Custom Monte Carlo Auction

I don’t imagine this is quite like the car that Charlie Ryan envisioned in his song “Hot Rod Lincoln”, but it’s one cool custom all the same! Ryan’s song is one of my all time favorites, so when this… more»

HO Drop Top: 1967 Plymouth Barracuda

While most people want the Barracudas built in the early ’70s, I’ve always had a soft spot for the ones built in the late ’60s. One of the major perks of buying a ’60s Mopar is that they tend… more»

Real Deal COPO: 1969 Camaro L72

This find isn’t a barn find or even an unrestored survivor, but it’s such an incredible find that I just can’t resist! In the late ’60s, GM set limits on the size of engine that could be optioned in… more»

Rotary Rocket: 1991 Maxton Rollerskate

Ever since I bought my first car, a beat up Mazda RX-7, I’ve been a fan of the rotary engine. While they don’t produce that much torque, aren’t terribly efficient and sound a bit like a chainsaw, there is… more»
