Rare Beast: 1984 GMC Jimmy Street Coupe

Immaculate 1986 Eagle Limited Wagon

This has to be one of the nicest Eagle Wagons out there! It’s been listed for sale for several months, but it would appear the seller has finally decided to be realistic with their valuation of it. At first,… more»

All the Goodies! 1986 Dodge Omni GLH

More and more, I think the 1980s represent my favorite era of vehicles. There was just something slightly obnoxious, slightly irreverent about cars from this era – almost like they knew they were odd little upstarts, but still wanted… more»

Less Than 10,000 Miles: 1993 Mustang Cobra

Not much is said about this Fox Body Mustang that comes with the impressive Cobra package. Considered one of the first successful projects of Ford’s internal SVT division, the Cobra of the early 90s was not necessarily a sophisticated… more»

Surviving In Style: 1974 Cadillac Coupe Deville

Near-New Apparatus: 1965 Dodge Power Wagon

It’s amazing what’s hiding away in firehouses across the USA. This 1965 Dodge Power Wagon isn’t the first low-mileage apparatus we’ve featured, but it sure is one of the nicest. With less than 12,000 original miles, this former pumper… more»

Classic Survivor: 1964 Chevelle Malibu

What a great looking Chevelle! I love this body style and it looks great in Meadow Green Metallic. The seller claims that it is an all original two owner car, with some recent work to make it drivable. The odometer… more»

Plain Green Wrapper! 1973 Buick LeSabre With 16k Miles

Yes, I know, it’s green, just like a lot of the survivors we’ve come across lately. I’m not sure what it is that makes green (and some would argue brown) cars survivor candidates, but perhaps it’s not just me… more»

Potential Bargain! 1962 Pontiac Tempest LeMans

Barn Retrieved: 1962 Oldsmobile F85

Tucked away into a barn in the 1980’s this Oldsmobile F85 is very original and would clean up nicely. The seller is offering this Olds’ as is, but it is a factory stick shift car. The styling and size… more»
