350-Powered Wagon: 1982 Chevrolet Malibu Classic

I don’t have to mention how hot station wagons are right now. When those hot wagons are hotted up a bit, they’re even hotter. Picture if you will (in my best Rod Serling voice), a 1982 Chevrolet Malibu Classic… more»

Worthwhile Project? 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback

Patina In Abundance: 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible

Patina is so cool that some places can even replicate it on a car that doesn’t have it. Other shops preserve the rusty fenders on cars so that they don’t get worse, knowing that the whole goal is to… more»

NASCAR-Loving Grandma Owned: 1996 Ford Thunderbird

As a NASCAR fan myself, I have to ask a tough question: Does NASCAR sell cars anymore? After all, the Camaro has been out of production for a year, but it’s still out on track, badged as a Chevrolet…. more»

Sleeper Build: 1983 Ford Mustang GT

28K MIle 1976 Oldsmobile 98 Regency Coupe

Running Project: 1965 Ford Mustang

Few trendsetters have been as popular as the Ford Mustang. Launched mid-year in 1964, the “pony car” is still in production today after more than 10 million copies have hit the road. This first-year edition is a project but… more»

1997 Ford F-350 XLT 4×4 Crew Cab Diesel

This 3-ton, five-passenger, 20′-8″ long, one-ton 4×4 truck would look great parked next to my tiny 2,500-pound, 15′-4″ Dodge D-50 Sport pickup. If a person needed a truck-truck for heavy hauling inside and out, it would be hard to… more»

BF Auction: 1951 Ford Country Squire Wagon

BF Auction: No Reserve 1949 Ford F5 School Bus

Too Many Doors? 1972 Dodge Dart Project

Only 38,000 Miles: 2000 Mercury Cougar

Mercury was an early entry in the “pony car” scene, entering the market in 1967 with the Cougar. It gave Ford Motor Co. two players, the other being the pioneering Mustang. The car led Mercury sales for several years… more»

Flathead V8: 1931 Ford Model A Hot Rod

As I’ve gotten older, I tend to prefer original and unmolested classics. However, that doesn’t mean that I dismiss custom builds. I am particularly drawn to traditional Hot Rods. These vehicles invariably demonstrate the builder’s creative thinking, and the… more»
