When the 1979 Pontiac Firebird came around, I remember some of my car-crazy classmates in high school saying they didn’t like the new sleeker front end quite as much as the previous year’s model. Oddly, I can remember lots… more»
American Classic Cars
34 Original Miles! 1989 Dodge Shelby CSX
Shelby! One of the most important names in American automotive performance. Also, one of the most important names in outsized automobile valuation. We’ve all seen what the Shelby name has done for the Cobra and Mustang, but how about… more»
455 V8 Survivor: 1973 Pontiac Grand Ville
Wanting to further capitalize on the luxury segment of the market, Pontiac created the Gran Ville in 1971. It was positioned over the Bonneville which in turn displaced the Executive in the line-up. The nameplate was used through 1975… more»
One Year Only! 1956 Packard Executive
This is it! A 1956 Packard Executive which was among the last of the true Packards produced as the ’57 and ’58 models would be Studebaker based. Packards seem to hold car guys and gal’s imaginations, such as this… more»
Just Three Owners! 1965 Rambler Marlin
Like the Dodge Charger that soon followed, the Rambler Marlin was positioned in the growing luxury personal segment of the car market but really wasn’t one. At least not like a Ford Thunderbird or Buick Riviera. It was more… more»
Puts the Shag in Shaggin’: 1974 Ford Econoline 100
The 1970s were a time of mystery. Who thought that Avocado Green was a good color for major appliances? Why did CB radios become a huge fad? Who the heck thought up disco and why weren’t they punished severely? … more»
421 Tri-Power: 1965 Pontiac 2+2
Some vehicle manufacturers can disappear without causing a ripple, while others will cause heartbreak among enthusiasts. It would be safe to say that Pontiac falls into the latter category. It’s incredible to think that a brand renowned for producing… more»
Rare Crew Cab: 1972 Dodge D200
While we seem to be hell-bent as a culture on bringing back everything that was once old and making it new again (versus creating new things of actual value), the long wheelbase pickup with a fleetside bed and four… more»
Estate Sale Bargain? 1978 GMC Royale Motorhome
This seems like a very good price for a classic GMC motorhome, the one that nearly every enthusiast at some level can agree is one of the coolest RVs ever built. These front-wheel-drive motorhomes have become cult classics of… more»
57k Original Miles: 1963 Chevrolet Corvair Monza 900 Club Coupe
While it received largely undeserved adverse publicity during its later life, Chevrolet’s decision to develop and produce the Corvair was a bold move that paid dividends in the showroom. Our feature car rolled off the production line in 1963… more»
Stunning Restoration: 1964 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz
Like most of its predecessors, the Sixth Generation Cadillac Eldorado remained in production for two model years. Our feature car rolled off the line in 1964, and the owner feels the time is right for it to find a… more»
Work-In-Progress: 1976 Chevrolet Cosworth Vega
Over the years, Chevrolet has had its share of successes as well as a few clunkers. Most would say the Vega fits into the second category as it was hurried into production so a lot of problems would quickly… more»
Rarely Encountered: 1968 Mercury Montego MX
This is a neat find, a 1968 Mercury Montego MX. While the Montego’s cousin, the Ford Fairlane/Torino gets a good deal of coverage, the Montego is more of a forgotten member of the mid-sized Ford Motor lineup. That said,… more»
Unlikely Collectible? 1979 Plymouth Horizon
Chrysler was facing bankruptcy in the mid-1970s. They were making cars that people weren’t buying (land yachts instead of small cars). Fortunately, they had the good sense to develop the Dodge Omni/ Plymouth Horizon subcompacts which debuted in 1978…. more»
