After 15 years of production and a few face lifts, it is easy to say that the Fox body Mustang built quite a chapter into Ford’s history book. This unique and interesting Mclaren converted Mustang Roadster is a rare… more»
Survivor Cars
Not all barn finds are rusty! Here are the very best unrestored classics:
Upgraded Survivor: 1973 Hurst Olds
By the end of 1972, the snarling large displacement muscle car engines had been cut back to lower compression and less power. But the 1973 Hurst Olds still offered a massive 455 cubic inch V8 that propelled this Oldsmobile… more»
Extraordinarily Ordinary: 1973 Pontiac Ventura
This 1973 Pontiac Ventura Custom is extraordinary simply because it’s ordinary. And by “ordinary”, I mean it’s not modified, it’s still wearing most of it’s original paint, and the interior is what it left the factory with. This clean… more»
Same Family 50 Years: 1955 Chevrolet Bel-Air
This is an intriguing car, hopefully it can be saved. This is a 1955 Chevrolet Bel-Air two-door sedan and it can be found on Collector Car Ads for $4,500! It’s located in Powhatan, Virginia and thanks to Dean for sending in… more»
Muscle Up: 1979 Dodge Aspen R/T
The owner refers to this 1979 Dodge Aspen R/T as a “muscle car”, would you agree? I guess, for the times, I would have to agree with that statement. Of course, you can’t compare a 1979 vehicle to the… more»
Estate Rescue: 1966 Pontiac Catalina
It seems some people have all the luck, as this 1966 Pontiac Catalina survivor was an estate sale find. Although this one has sat for a few years, it is still a real beauty, and appears to have only… more»
Rare Color & 28K Miles: Olds Cutlass Convertible
When this generation of the Oldsmobile Cutlass was a new car, I was convinced this was the hottest thing on the road (explains my taste in vehicles, doesn’t it?) I chalked it up to the aggressive styling and little… more»
Shady Lot Find: Preserved ’87 LeBaron
I don’t know why, but I’m always enamored by those corner used car lots where the interest rates are through the roof and the salesman looks like he’s on work release. It’s almost as if being blatantly disreputable doesn’t… more»
Big Tow: 1978 Elite 188 Towlounge Chevy Van
I don’t know why I always think of hauling motorcycles when I see something like this, but I do. This is a 1978 Elite 188 Towlounge Chevrolet Van with a fifth-wheel hitch in the back for pulling a fifth-wheel… more»
Sweptline Survivor: 1969 Dodge D100 Pickup
Dodge Sweptlines are trucks that are almost always met with interest and appreciation. This particular truck is easy to appreciate as it wears its original paint, and still putts around with its original drivetrain. Clean, and straight, this beauty is… more»
Honest American: 1965 Rambler American 440
It is always exciting to find affordable driving classics that have an honest and clean appearance. After 52 years of life, this Rambler has had 3 owners, and looks to have only crossed a little over 100,000 miles. With… more»
12,000 Original Miles: 1978 Cadillac Fleetwood
Not many cars remain on the road today that have details like their factory chalk markings still intact. That’s not surprising – after a few years of use, natural elements strip those clues to a car’s past right off… more»
Cool In Its Own Right: 1965 Corvair Sedan
As many of you probably know, I’m a Corvair nut. One general trend in the land of flat-sixes is the lack of love for “bloated whales”- the sport sedan Corvair. I, for one, like the longer roofline and convenience… more»
Turbo Car Concept: 1984 Mercedes 190E Callaway
Over the years, we have seen any number of hotted-up models released with the distinct touches of a company called Callaway. This connection seemingly always has a positive impact on value, as just the parts alone can command a… more»
Big Bird: 1974 Ford Thunderbird Survivor
There’s nothing special about the sixth generation Thunderbirds, but this one listed on craigslist looks like a really nice original car. The $6,900 asking price might seem kind of high, but the average sale price is listed at $7,100 and this… more»
Only Way to Travel: 1977 GMC Motorhome
In the late 70s, the annual holiday Hess truck was a replica of this fantastic GMC motorhome. It was easily my favorite of the trucks my brother and I collected, not only for the blinking lights and fully-equipped interior, but… more»
