Time Capsule: 1987 Porsche 911 Targa

Just once I wish I’d get a phone call that starts with, “I have a car you might be interested in.” Who knows what it might be, but at the very least I’d likely be getting first dibs on… more»

Base Model Nova: 1962 Chevy II

It’s no wonder the Nova didn’t do so well in the Spanish speaking world, especially when you consider that “no va” means “no go” in Spanish. The Nova was the top model of the Chevy II, so this base model… more»

Gentleman Jim! 1975 GMC Sierra Pickup

6K Mile 1971 Nova Revisited

1985 Chevrolet S-10: Fact or Fiction?

This is one of those listings where I hope I don’t feel like a sucker for posting it. Here goes: this is a 1985 Chevy S-10 pickup here on eBay, said to have only 69 original miles after being… more»

1944 Dodge WFA-31: War Production

In addition to my love affair with ex-municipal vehicles, I also dig trucks that bear some connection to war efforts or other government programs. It seems that despite all of the waste generated by excess spending, I can rationalize… more»

1969 Toyota Corolla Sprinter: All Factory

Vintage Japanese cars always make me chuckle, due largely to the fact that these cars were little different from their ancestors: cheap, fuel-efficient transportation that had a knack for reliability. But given their age and rarity today, classic Toytoas like… more»

Hold The Phone! 1974 AMC Gremlin

This remarkably original 1974 AMC Gremlin started it’s life as an official car for Bell of Pennsylvania. You can still see what’s left of the original signage on the door, indicating that this may be the original paint as well…. more»

Up And Coming: 1985 Pontiac Trans AM

There are a few ’80s cars I’ve keenly been watching over the past couple years, as they have always interested me and I see them going up in value. While I’ve never really liked the looks of the ’80s… more»

1940 Cadillac Series 60 Survivor

This grand old Cadillac that Steve J found here on craigslist looks really original, even down to the paint on the engine. It was last registered in 1972. The engine turns, but hasn’t been started yet. $13,500 might seem overpriced to… more»

1984 VW GTI: MK1 Survivor

Barockengel: 1961 BMW 2600 Luxus

When we think of BMW, luxury is often part of the equation. But more often than not, especially among enthusiast circles, the brand’s provenance as a performance-oriented manufacturer is what we think of. M3s, M5s, the venerable 3-Series –… more»

1971 Nova With Only 6,745 Miles!

This 1971 Nova may not be the most desirable spec – inline-six and four-door, but it is claimed to have covered less than 7,000 miles in its lifetime! The seller claims to have documentation to prove it, but there… more»

High Wheeled Survivor: 1910 International

We are impressed when a car from the ’50s or ’60s has survived the years without ever being restored, but finding something from the early 1900’s that hasn’t been restored at least once is almost unheard of. That makes… more»
