BF Auction: 1955 Chevrolet Task Force 3600
It’s hard to imagine such a stylish truck as Chevy’s new Task Force being used as a utility truck, probably because we usually see them either over-restored or restomodded today. But this was it, this was a tough truck… more»
Muscle Car Project: 1969 Plymouth GTX
Introduced in 1967, the GTX was Plymouth’s upscale muscle car. It was joined the following year by the Road Runner, a budget-oriented model. Both were based on the mid-size Satellite/ Belvedere. The seller has a rusty and non-running GTX… more»
2 for 1: Pair of 1961 Lincoln Continentals
Lincoln, like many of FOMOCO’s brands, came in behind GM/Cadillac in terms of sales. The Cadillacs had some of the industry’s wildest styling in the late 1950s, while the Lincolns were downright weird with their slanted front peepers (Chrysler… more»
Ran When Parked: 1966 Ford Mustang
The original Ford Mustang is probably one of the least rare cars today. That’s because more than 1.2 million of them were produced between 1964 and 1966. So, if you’re looking for one to restore, find the best one… more»
Revived Pole Barn Find: 1965 Chevrolet Bel Air
The best-selling American-made automobile of the 1960s was not the Ford Mustang (though it was close). That honor goes to Chevrolet’s line of 1965 full-size cars, which added up to a record 1.4 million Biscaynes, Bel Airs, Impalas, and… more»
Rust-Free Roller: 1970 Pontiac GTO
By 1970, the bloom was off the muscle car flower. The “leader of the pack,” the Pontiac GTO, saw its sales drop by 45% from the year before (and would keep falling until the end in 1974). Saturated demand… more»
Dusty Time Capsule: 1969 Plymouth Fury VIP
Full-size Mopars from the late 1960s don’t always get the attention they deserve, but this 1969 Plymouth Fury VIP, listed here on Facebook Marketplace in [location not specified], offers an opportunity to bring one of these rarely seen luxury-oriented… more»
1-Owner Garage Find: 1966 Plymouth Sport Fury
The Sport Fury can be thought of as Plymouth’s answer to the Chevrolet Impala Super Sport. After being a one-year wonder in 1959, the name returned in 1962 for a longer run to 1971. Most Sport Furys were hardtops,… more»
Stored for Decades: 1959 Dodge Coronet Sedan
By the late 1950s, Dodge was in full stride with bold styling, big tailfins, and a wide range of V8 powerplants. The 1959 Dodge Coronet sat at the entry level of Dodge’s full-size lineup but still offered plenty of… more»
Up On Blocks Nine Years: 1975 Chevrolet Nova
The fourth and final generation of the rear-wheel-drive Chevrolet Nova arrived in 1975. It would continue to sell well until 1979, when it was retired to be replaced by the all-new front-wheel-drive Citation. The seller’s 1975 coupe (not a… more»
BF Auction: No Reserve 1979 MGB Limited Edition
At one time, this MGB was the previous owner’s pride and joy. They used it as their daily driver for many years, but some health struggles left the car parked in their driveway. After letting it sit for a… more»
Rare Economy V8: 1969 Pontiac GTO
The 1969 Pontiac GTO was still the leader of mid-size muscle cars, but its position had been eroded by a swarm of competitors. Though overall sales topped 72,000 units in 1969, just 1,461 were built with the optional “economy… more»
Basement-Bound 41 Years: 1952 Plymouth Suburban
Post-war Plymouth station wagons were known as Suburbans for nearly 30 years. Coincidentally, Chevrolet would employ the name at the same time, which had to be more than a little confusing to buyers. The seller has a 2-door Plymouth… more»
Stored Since The Disco Era: 1962 Chevrolet Impala
Carrying a facelift over the previous model year, Chevy’s top-of-the-line Impala had at least two things to boast about in 1962. One was a formal roof on the Sport Coupe, leaving the “bubbletop” to the Bel Air. And a… more»
Rally Sport Project: 1968 Chevrolet Camaro
The Chevy Camaro debuted in 1967 as a “pony car” and quickly put a dent in the Ford Mustang’s market share. Sales continued to grow in 1968, though the cars were little changed in their sophomore outing. This edition… more»
