One-Family-Owned: 1984 Buick Riviera 307 V8

This 1984 Buick Riviera is four decades old now but a brochure touting it as being a “contemporary classic” seems like it would still apply today. It’s a car that most people could use as a daily driver, a… more»

1973 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Cruiser 455 V8

Looking great in a color that I believe is Chamois Gold, and having been repainted six years ago (and apparently debadged, unfortunately) this car is listed as a 1973 Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser, but I believe it’s a Cutlass Supreme… more»

Super Duty: 43k Mile 1974 Pontiac Trans Am SD-455

If you say the words Super Duty to a Ford enthusiast, they think of a work truck. If you say those words to a muscle car enthusiast, they immediately think of Pontiac. Typically, they focus on the 1973 and… more»

Sunroof Delete: 1993 Ford Mustang Cobra

The Fox body generation of the Ford Mustang Cobra represented perhaps one of the broader introductions of a collectible Ford in the modern era. While cars like the Saleen Mustang and ASC McLaren cars had existed up this point,… more»

12k-Mile Survivor? 1963 Chrysler Imperial

Hatchback Survivor: 1980 Dodge Colt Twin-Stick

A Dodge Colt brochure calls this car “the eight-speed wonder of the world”, a clever take on “the eighth wonder of the world.” They’re referring to the famous Twin-Stick manual transmission, a unique two-range (power and economy) four-speed, effectively… more»

Original Survivor: 48K 1976 Triumph TR6

I have long considered the “6” to be the most attractive of Triumph’s “TR” range of sports cars. From its aggressive styling to the deeply offset wheels, it is blessed with an appearance that promises above-average performance and an… more»

72k Original Miles: 1966 Oldsmobile Toronado

Oldsmobile broke new ground in 1966 when it released its Toronado as a Personal Luxury Car. It was the first American-designed and built front-wheel-drive model since the demise of the Cord 812 in 1937. The drivetrain configuration proved a… more»

Dentside 4×4: 1979 Ford F-250 Ranger

While technically falling just outside the era of being an actual Highboy, this 1979 Ford F-250 Ranger 4×4 appears to have a bit of a lift on it. Round headlights went away for the 1979 model year, at least… more»

23k-Mile Time Capsule: 1987 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS Aerocoupe

29K-Mile Upgraded 1995 Ford F-150 SVT Lightning

We’ve talked about vehicle wish lists here before and mine is loaded with some unusual ones, like a Subaru 360 Young S, a Comuta-Car EV, and other oddballs. That being said, most of my list consists of trucks, usually… more»

Two Tone 28K Mile: 1980 Pontiac Turbo Trans Am

Two tone paint jobs on cars became the rage in the late 1970’s and early 1980’s. I first remember the two tone paint when I went with my parents to the Buick dealership in 1978 so they could buy… more»

Senior Owned: 1989 Chevrolet Cavalier Z24

A lot of us knew someone with a second-generation Chevrolet Cavalier of one body style or another, whether they were a neighbor, friend, or relative. The Cavalier was offered in a wide range of configurations, from a four-door sedan,… more»

7k Original Miles: 1988 Ford Mustang GT Convertible

Low mileage claims must often be taken with a grain of salt, especially if there is a question hanging over the subject of verifying evidence. However, that might not be an issue with this 1988 Ford Mustang GT Convertible,… more»

Rare American Supercar: 1986 Ford Saleen Mustang

Modern Muscle: 10k Miles 2004 Pontiac GTO

The 2004 Pontiac GTO has the dubious distinction of being built by a now-extinct foreign General Motors marque to be sold in North America by another extinct GM brand. That is sad, because, below the skin, the GTO possessed… more»
