Rare Sport Coupe: 1986 Ford Escort EXP

Solid Project: 1964 Ford Galaxie 500 XL

Even though it has spent some time parked in a barn, this 1964 Galaxie is a car that runs and drives well. It appears to be an essentially solid car that is just begging for someone to restore it…. more»

Unrestored Survivor: 1968 Chevrolet Camaro SS

As you gaze upon the straight panels and the gleaming Rallye Green Poly paint on this 1968 Camaro, reflect upon the fact that what you are looking at isn’t a restoration, but a 100% original survivor. This is a… more»

When Miles Don’t Matter: 1965 Mustang Coupe

The phrase “low miles” is like red meat to a car collector.  The term conjures up visions of perfect cars with little wear because they were only driven to church and the market on Sunday.  This time I think… more»

The Nicest One Left? 1978 Renault 17 Gordini

One of the Renault models that we had in the U.S. was the 17, along with the LeCar. For years those were the only two Renaults sold here. Looking back on it now, I can’t believe that even those… more»

Just Needs Finishing: 1966 Ford Mustang GT Fastback 2+2

The current owner of this 1966 Mustang GT Fastback 2+2 bought the car off the original owner. It had already been placed into primer when he bought it, and he has now decided to move the car on to… more»

Completely Original: 1968 Chevrolet Camaro Z28

While 1967 had been a toe-in-the-water exercise for Chevrolet with the Z28 with only 602 cars rolling off the production line, 1968 saw the Z28 really start to hit its stride. With 7,199 cars being built, people had realized… more»

Parked in the 1980s: 1963½ Mercury Marauder

From Russia With Love: 1954 Moskvitch 400

It is amazing to consider that a nation like the Soviet Union could beat the rest of the World into space, but the mass production of the motor vehicle caused the country no end of confusion. The Moskvitch 400… more»

28,000 Mile Survivor: 1990 Ford Ranger

Unlike econobox cars, there is something inherently charming about cheap pickup trucks. I have no personal hatred against a stripped down ’82 VW Rabbit, but it’s slow, small, and not that much fun to drive. Old base-model pickup trucks… more»

29k Genuine Miles: 1970 Chrysler 300 Hurst
