Nailhead V8 Project: 1956 Buick Special Riviera

Ran When Parked: 1962 Mercedes-Benz 220

60-Year Survivor: 1965 AMC Classic 770
In 1965, American Motors continued to use the Rambler nameplate on its products. That would change in 1967 when only the American was so branded (then gone altogether when that little car was cancelled in 1969). This 1965 Rambler… more»

Not an SS Clone: 1972 Chevrolet Nova
