I quit running a couple of years ago, just to preserve my original joints – knees, ankles, etc. Too many friends and relatives were having knee replacement surgery and I wanted to keep all of my original parts as… more»
Muscle Cars
Lightly Modified: 1971 Ford Torino 500
I really liked the ’66 and ’67 Ford Fairlane until I saw the ’68 and ’69 versions which I liked even better. I thought it interesting that Ford saw fit, as with the Mustang, to build both a notchback… more»
World’s Most Valuable? 1965 Shelby GT350R Prototype
Those of you with your fingers on the classic car pulse will know that the outright sales record for the world’s most expensive Mustang was set in January. You will probably also know that this was the legendary “Bullitt”… more»
Bumblebee Alternative: 2001 Dodge Viper GTS
While a Camaro found big-screen fame thanks to its iconic yellow and black paint job, I’d take this second-generation Viper GTS in the same colors any day of the week. This example has under 20,000 original miles and presents… more»
Original 396: 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396
We’ve seen quite a few Chevelle SS 396 project cars over the years here at Barn Finds, and the vast majority of them are in need of some significant rust repairs. Well, this one is a bit of a… more»
Cobra Jet Convertible! 1969 Mercury Cougar XR7
Well admittedly, this one doesn’t look like much. The debate will be what it is versus what it was – does the value carry forward? On paper, this is a rare car and worthy of a close look. It’s… more»
Reef Blue: 1993 Ford Mustang LX 5.0
This 1993 Ford Mustang LX appears to wear a rare factory color known as Reef Blue, one of the prettier colors you could order your Fox Body ‘Stang with in 1993. The seller doesn’t make any mention of the… more»
New Car Trade-In: 1984 Chevy Corvette
For a car that made a significant impact on American culture, the early C4 Corvettes still wallow at the low end of the collector car spectrum. I understand these were far from the high point of muscle car history,… more»
No Reserve Turbo! 1987 Buick Grand National
The 1980s dawned with an automotive hangover from the ’70s. Stringent Federally imposed emission regulations, new (and big!) bumper rules and two oil shocks, one in ’73 and the second one in ’79, pretty well defanged any serious performance… more»
Buy, Not Rent, This 1968 Shelby Hertz GT350 Mustang!
The opportunities to purchase a relatively complete, straight and running 1968 Shelby Mustang GT350 are pretty hard to come by. With the auction here on eBay ending so soon for this car, you’d better move quickly. Current bidding is… more»
Roller Project: 1966 Chevrolet Nova SS
There are no shortages of descriptions that sellers use to describe their cars. They run the gamut from zero description to a tome, from a complete downplay to an over-the-top “give me a break, please” exaggeration and then all… more»
Parked For Many Years: 1970 Dodge Challenger 340
This 1970 Dodge Challenger has been off the road for many years, and it’s going to take some work to get it back to io a roadworthy state once again. Complete restoration would have this classic really standing out,… more»
One Owner 53 Years: 1966 Pontiac GTO
G.O.A.T. – greatest of all time, right? While there’s a number of origin stories for how the GTO earned the nickname “Goat”, none of them appear to be from the aforementioned acronym. Arguments can be made for the GTO… more»
