Cheap 5-Speed: 1998 Jeep Cherokee Sport

Nicest One Left? 1975 Plymouth Road Runner

The Plymouth Road Runner ended its run in 1975 as a B-bodied mid-size muscle car. It was a one-year-only design, though Plymouth would attempt a Volare comeback (in name only) a couple of years later. This beauty was in… more»

Drives Great: 1998 Mercury Grand Marquis

Brand New 440 V8: 1967 Dodge Charger

Dodge introduced the Charger in 1966 as an upscaled and upsized “pony car” on Chrysler’s B-body platform. It wasn’t until a redesign in 1968 that it became a bona fide sales success. The seller offers a 1967 Charger “Rebellion”… more»

Downsizing Opportunity: 1956 Ford Thunderbird
