47K-Mile 1978 Chevrolet Malibu Classic Landau

Chevrolet fielded two compact cars, the Corvair (1960-69) and the Chevy II/Nova (1962-79). The Corvair was akin to the VW Beetle in that it used a rear-mounted, air-cooled engine, a first for American automobiles. Chevy sold nearly 1.8 million… more»

1968 Chrysler Newport Convertible Sportsgrain

Great Little Car? 1977 Mazda GLC

The Mazda GLC (Great Little Car) is such a friendly-looking little car. It’s almost cartoonish in appearance, like it should have two crossed band-aids on a tire. This 1977 Mazda GLC came to Conshohocken, Pennsylvania, by way of Seattle,… more»

Toyota Experiment: 2000 Toyota Will Vi

This black over red 1975 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale Convertible shows just under 59,000 miles on the odometer. Black has to be a rare color for this car or for any mid-70s Olds 88, I don’t know if I’ve… more»
