SuperCab was the name Ford used for the extra space behind the front seat and it sure would have come in handy on our ’69 F-250 if there would have been such a thing back then. This 1989 Ford… more»

1993 Dodge Power Ram 350 4×4 Diesel 5-Speed
Dodge trucks were losing market share in the late 1970s as their big block engine options dried up and went away. Customers had to look elsewhere for trucks up to the task of hauling and doing other big jobs… more»
Five-Speed Survivor: 1996 Toyota Tacoma 4×4
Paradise Blue, what a soothing color and color name. Just like the interior color name: Gray. Ok, that one needs a bit of work from Toyota’s marketing department, but it’s hard to argue with the cosmetic condition of this… more»
1971 Chevrolet C-10 Cheyenne 350 V8 Short Bed
Short-bed trucks are all the rage today and they have been for a long time. I’m not sure when the trend started, but I’m guessing the 1960s is when they started coming on strong in the marketplace. This 1971… more»
Factory Big Block: 1971 GMC Sprint
As a college kid, I spent a summer working at the local automotive paint store as a delivery driver. One day, I showed up to find a derelict car parked in the corner of our gravel parking lot, a… more»
Original Paint and Graphics: 1980 Jeep J-10 Honcho 4×4
There are certain things that never would have gotten the stamp of approval in any decade other than the ’70s (or the early ’80s, in this case), and one might be the Jeep J-10 “Honcho.” A honcho is the… more»
Big 20: 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD 4×4 Diesel
If for some reason the planets get out of alignment with each other and the sun, I have a solution: this 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD 4×4 Diesel. If anything can pull them back to where they should be, this… more»
RWD Project: 1969 International Travelette 1200D
The new-for-1969 D-Series light-duty trucks from International Harvester Company were crisp and clean, something this example doesn’t exactly exude in its current condition. You could do worse at a local Cars & Coffee event than showing up in this… more»
Rare Trim: 1981 Volkswagen Sportruck
As OEMs made cheaper and cheaper cars throughout the ’70s and ’80s, one of the tricks they used to make a car seem “fancier” was trim packages. From denim interiors to bicentennial red, white, and blue packages, the car… more»
GMC-Based Custom Creation: The Plane Car
For those who’ve been curious what would happen if a 2005 GMC Sierra was stripped of its body, then had a 1950s GM truck front end added, followed by a Cessna 421B body out back, your days of wondering… more»
German Fire Truck: 1960 Unimog 404
The Unimog is undoubtedly one of the coolest rigs ever made, but it has limited uses. From the sheer size of it to the limited horsepower relative to a rig this large, I suspect many of these project ‘Mogs… more»
Former Fire Truck Shorty! 1985 Ford C800
The Ford C-Series of commercial trucks was built from 1957 to 1990, employing a cabover engine design (COE). This was the first of the Fords to have a tilting front clip, enabling access to the engine compartment. Many of… more»
Project Pickup: 1949 Studebaker 2R10
Gearing up a new vehicle design is hard enough normally, but after several years of literally a world war when you’re throwing everything you have into a victory, it’s understandable that it took a few years for totally new… more»
Engine Swap? 1959 Chevrolet El Camino
This 1959 Chevrolet El Camino makes a generally positive first impression. However, a close look confirms that it requires work to present at its best. It features strong bones and a drivetrain change that many would consider reversing. The… more»
Rare 1976 Land Rover Lightweight
The combination of being rugged and somewhat lightweight was the goal of the British Military in the early 1960s when they modified the short-wheelbase Series IIA Land Rover to be light enough for transport by helicopter. This 1976 Land… more»
