The seller has this cool, tough, unusual 4×4 tug with four-wheel-steering listed as a 1973, but the info included on the photo of the data plate shows it as a 1975, so that’s what I’m going with. This 1975… more»
Survivor Cars
Not all barn finds are rusty! Here are the very best unrestored classics:
Perfect Spec? 1976 Porsche 914 2.0
The Porsche 914 is one of those cars that we see in project form quite often, but rarely in well-preserved, survivor condition. In fact, right now, there’s a listing on Facebook Marketplace for a property in Washington State loaded… more»
Cherry Condition: 1985 Ford Thunderbird
Not counting the era of the “classic” Thunderbird, which in my book encompasses the 1955 to 1966 models, my favorite T-Birds are the Fox Aerobirds. Yes, they were controversial at the time; ex-General Motors chief stylist William Mitchell thought… more»
Time Capsule: 1972 Chevrolet C20 Suburban Ambulance
Some vehicles are more than just classic trucks—they’re living pieces of history. That’s the case with this 1972 Chevrolet C-20 Suburban Ambulance, now listed here on craigslist out of San Antonio, Texas. This rare three-door Suburban was converted by… more»
European-Flavored: Rust-Free 1980 Ford Granada
A Ford Granada brochure of the era touts the Granada as being “European-flavored”, and as most of us who were alive back then know, that was a big thing. It still is. This big-bumpered, Polar White, rust-free 1980 Ford… more»
Nicest One Left? 1975 Dodge Dart Sport 360
The Dart Sport was Dodge’s equivalent of the Plymouth Duster fastback compact. Born in 1971 as the Dart Demon, political correctness even then supposedly led to a name change in 1973 to something less controversial. The seller offers a… more»
2,500-Mile Original: 1972 Kawasaki F7 175
“From freeway to freedom” is how a Kawasaki brochure describes the lifestyle of owning a 1972 Kawasaki F7 175. I’d stick with back roads as much as possible, but maybe some short stints on a non-rush-hour-clogged freeway on your… more»
77K-Mile 1980 Oldsmobile Ninety-Eight Regency
This 1980 Oldsmobile Ninety-Eight Regency sedan isn’t perfect, as you can see. The bumper filler material has seen better days and is AWOL in areas, and there’s missing door trim on both sides. Those cosmetic glitches can always be… more»
Ecklers Daytona Coupe: 1980 Chevrolet Corvette
When you first lay eyes on one of these modified C3 Corvettes with the Eckler’s Daytona-style body kit installed, it’s easy to cast it aside as yet one more aftermarket creation in a sea of custom cars. However, the… more»
Big Bruiser: 1951 Clark Yardlift 150
I can only take so many vintage cars before I need to revert to something that can take a lickin’ and keep on tickin’. Besides, I’ve seen the light: a forklift is so mighty handy. I recently managed to… more»
Limited Production Drop-Top: 2005 Ford Thunderbird
The Ford Thunderbird began as a two-seat personal luxury convertible in 1955. And it finished its run in the same position 50 years later. But for most of the time in between, the T-Bird had room for at least… more»
Solid V8 Driver: 1964 Pontiac LeMans
In 2010, Pontiac joined a list of marques that were consigned to the pages of history books. That concept would have been unthinkable when this 1964 LeMans left the line, especially considering that it was in this model year… more»
Rolling History: 1926 Dodge Brothers Delivery Truck
Every so often a vehicle surfaces that isn’t just an old car or truck, but a true piece of living history. That’s exactly what’s on offer with this 1926 Dodge Brothers screen-side delivery truck, recently listed here on Facebook… more»
26K Miles: 1980 Honda Civic 1500 GL
At 12′-4″ long, this 1,670-pound 1980 Honda Civic 1500 GL would be an incredibly fun project to get back on the road again. It looks to be in nice condition, other than the missing driver’s door trim and a… more»
24K Original Miles: 1985 Renault 5 Turbo 2
For those of you who are fans of 1980s tuner cars, the word “homologation” carries significant meaning. This is basically the process whereby manufacturers earmark a small batch of vehicles for sale to the public as a means of… more»
Solid Foundation: 1973 Jensen-Healey Project
The British sports car scene of the 1970s offered plenty of choices, but the Jensen-Healey stood out as a bit of a hybrid—part Lotus, part Jensen, with American safety standards in mind. This 1973 Jensen-Healey, listed here on craigslist… more»
