Special Order: 1941 Cadillac Deluxe Coupe

Cadillac had a banner year in 1941, building nearly 60,000 automobiles for the first time. That included the Series 62 Deluxe Coupe like the seller’s car. Except this one was a special-order Caddy, with no back seat like the… more»

Original Steel: 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu

Classic cars from the 1960s were famous for many things, including stunning looks and impressive performance. Many were also renowned for dissolving like a soluble aspirin at the merest suggestion of rain. It seems that few manufacturers were immune,… more»

400/4-Speed: 1969 Oldsmobile 442

The history of this 1969 Oldsmobile 442 isn’t clear, but it now needs someone to give it some love. It may look tired, but that baked exterior conceals a classic that is complete and surprisingly solid. Adding to its… more»

1 of 100? 1978 Dodge Dreamer RV Hauler

It’s no mystery that I’m a huge fan of unusual (oddball?) vehicles, the weirder and more obscure the better. If they’re even barely usable, even better! Well, maybe not that part, but I would have no real use for… more»

Parked For 15 Years: 1974 Dodge Challenger Rallye

Barn Find Flower Car: 1965 Cadillac Fleetwood

Every time I spy an old flower car like this 1965 Cadillac  I immediately think of Cab Calloway’s ride from the 1980’s film, “The Blues Brothers“. Other than images and TV shows/movies, I’m not certain that I have ever… more»

Parked For 15 Years: 1970 International Scout 800

This 1970 International Scout 800 may look like a first-gen Ford Bronco but the big difference isn’t the visuals, it’s the market price. Bronco’s numbers are on another planet, the Scout? Not so much so. Subjectively speaking, I prefer… more»

43K Original Miles: 1990 Buick Riviera

There’s not much time left to bid on this survivor Buick Riviera that has just 43,000 miles from new and is offered up with no reserve. While not necessarily the high water mark for Buick’s famous nameplate, this generation… more»

Hot Rod Shop Truck: 1954 Dodge Pickup

A non-enthusiast may be hard-pressed to tell the difference between a B-Series 1953 Dodge pickup and the C-Series 1954 model. Although there are many similar styling cues, the new truck was completely redesigned from the ground up. Starting at… more»

Unfinished Business: 1968 Dodge Super Bee

Stage 1 Four-Speed! 1969 Buick GS 400

“Fast with Class” is how Buick advertised their mid-sized GS performance entry. And this 1969 Buick GS 400 could be referred to as a Fast Blast with Class thanks to its optional Stage 1 performance package. But wait, there’s… more»

Parked For 35-Years! 1967 Chevrolet Camaro

One Year Only: 1972 Buick Skylark Sun Coupe

The Sun Coupe was a one-year-only option on the 1972 Skylark 350 Sport Coupe, with its manual-folding vinyl sunroof and special carpeting and badging. It was in addition to traditional convertibles that would be in their last year as… more»
