When I first spotted this Lamborghini garage find, I assumed it was just another unfinished kit car someone was trying to pass off as the real deal, but something about it seemed different. The body panel gaps were just… more»

Finally, An E-Type You Can Afford!

Well, you may be able to afford this one, but what would you do with it? The seller states that when their father restored his E-Type, he replaced the body and kept this old shell in the shed. The… more»

Formula To Cheap Fun: 1979 Pontiac Firebird

We’ve been watching the values of Firebirds closely lately and have noticed a steady trend in values, they are going up. I remember when you could buy a nice late ’70s Firebird or Camaro for nearly nothing, but those… more»

Rough But Cheap: 1968 Dodge Coronet 440

1968 was a good year for Mopars! The refresh of the B-body gave the Coronet and all of it’s relatives a great new look, with a more aggressive shape and stance. This Coronet looks to be pretty beat up… more»

Paging Steve McQueen: 1967 Mustang Fastback

I can’t think of too many movie cars made more famous than the fastback-bodied Mustang. This 1967 model featured here may be a year newer than the actual car used by Steve McQueen in Bullitt, but it sure does offer… more»

Pragmatic Police: Volvo 240 Cop Car

When we think of police cars, it’s easy to jump right to V8 powered, rear-wheel drive sedans that are equally capable at smoky burnouts as they are at hauling criminals. But at some point in time, Volvo got into… more»

A Pair Of Z28’s – Choose One?

There’s not a whole lot of difference between a 1978 and a 1980 Z28, but there sure is a lot of difference in the condition (and price) of these two cars! The rust colored 1978 is located in York, Pennsylvania, and… more»

Hurricane Change: 1969 Olds Toronado

Mother Nature can wreck havoc with our plans at any time. The seller of this highly-original Oldsmobile Toronado found this out when Hurricane Hermine did some significant damage to his house in Florida, effectively changing his plans for carrying… more»

Parts Or Project? 1974 MGB V6

The one thing that makes this MGB listed on eBay worth considering is the price of $1,500. The body looks straight. Perhaps it’s not rusty. The previous owner had installed a Ford V6. The current owner swapped it out… more»

Feel The Pain: 1966 Chevrolet Corvette Project

It’s not just the cars, it’s the stories. This is yet another, basket-case mid-year Corvette project car. I chose this one to write up because I empathize, I feel the guy’s pain.

Titled for the 1st Time: 1967 Firebird

What an interesting story there is behind this dusty Firebird. According to the seller’s description, this 1967 example is an untouched original that has just been titled for the first time. It was apparently a new car trade in… more»
