Air-Cooled Mutant: 1980 Porsche 911 SC

While I’ve never been a fan of 911s that are converted to look like later models, this 1980 911 SC is doing a solid job at imitating a later-production widebody. Said to have been converted to a high level… more»

Stock Unicorn: 1992 Nissan Sentra SE-R

A few months ago, a survivor-grade example of Nissan’s hotted-up FWD Sentra – otherwise known as the SE-R – crossed the auction block and reminded enthusiasts how few of these great 90s cars are left. Since then, I’ve seen… more»

Turbo Coupe: 1980 Pontiac Trans Am

Family Owned: 17K Mile 1977 Ford Mustang II

There are many days when I wish my dad had kept some of his cars for me to own later on, like the smoke silver 1990 Mercedes-Benz 300E I still think about. Of course, life doesn’t always afford us… more»

Dusty Stepside: 1978 Dodge D150

Faded Glory: 1978 Ford Pinto Cruising Wagon

The seller calls this 1978 Ford Pinto Cruising Wagon the “…original hippy wagon.” I don’t mean to split hairs, but I’m pretty sure that title belongs to the original VW Bus. Still, the Cruising Wagons are pretty cool in… more»

Retired Warbird: 1941 Curtiss P-40E Kittyhawk

WWII aircraft are among the most stunning pieces of machinery ever created, effectively one of the most mind-blowing paradoxes that exists in the world of machinery: a gorgeous art-deco-inspired contraption, surely too beautiful for the duties it was built… more»

41 Years Owned: 1966 Alfa Romeo Duetto

At first, I thought the $90,000 asking price was somewhat nuts for this 1966 Alfa Romeo Duetto. However, digging further into the ad, you realize that the seller has owned this Alfa since 1976 and that it remains in… more»

Notchback Project: 1988 Pontiac Trans AM GTA

Matching Numbers Road Bike: 1974 BMW R90/6

This awesome 1974 BMW R90/6 has been with the original owner since new and in storage since 1987. The seller is listing on behalf of that owner, and there’s a lot here to like. Frankly, it looks like the… more»

Living Room Find: 45k Mile 1986 Jaguar XJS

This 1986 Jaguar XJS quite literally appears to be stored in someone’s living room. I can’t explain it, but I’d be lying if I didn’t admit wanting to occasionally walk downstairs in the morning and see my pride and… more»
