High-Performance 350: 1973 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible

40K-Mile 1984 Chevrolet S-10 Durango 4×4
This 1984 Chevrolet S-10 Durango 4×4 pickup has only traveled 40,000 miles over the last thirty-eight years which is pretty amazing. I drive that much every year and that low mileage appears to have really preserved this golden nugget…. more»
383 V8 Transplant: 1970 Chevrolet Camaro RS
Some consider the 1967-69 Camaro to be a hastily prepared response to the highly successful Ford Mustang. Things would change with the 1970 edition which would be an all-new car from the ground up. It debuted mid-year as there… more»

Build-Ready: 1979 Manta Montage Coyote
I absolutely love the ambition of kit builders of the past. Literally, anything could be made, from little British-style roadsters to full-on racing replicas. Clearly, Brad and Tim Lovette had the same thoughts and they formed the company, Manta… more»
GT350H Wannabe: 1966 Ford Mustang K-Code Fastback
Is taking a fine and rust-free true K-code Mustang Fastback and cloning a Shelby out of it an act of upgrading, or is it a downgrade of what could have been a lovely original car? That’s the question the… more»
Worth Fixing? 1970 Dodge Charger R/T 440
There’s a little bit of car left in this 1970 Dodge Charger R/T, here on eBay, already bid to $8,700. These remains are located in Baxley, Georgia. I cheated with this photo because it shows this car’s best angle…. more»
It’s A Hemi! 1954 Dodge Royal

7K Miles and Supercharged: 1998 Dodge Dakota 4×4
