There’s little to say about the ’55 Chevrolet that hasn’t already been said, but there’s a reason for that. In some ways, it’s the universal car; it’s been a family hauler, a hot rod, a custom, and an image… more»

Last Year: 1959 Chevrolet Apache 32 Fleetside

Ok, last year of what, Gilby? Last year of Chevy trucks? No, that can’t be it. Last year of people painting beautiful turquoise green trucks black? I hope it’s the last year for that, but no, 1959 was the… more»

Selling for Grandpa: 1953 Packard Clipper

1960s Rupp Monza SS Chevy Jr. Go-Kart
