1966 Ferrari 330GT: Dusty Garage Find
I can’t even begin to imagine what it would feel like to find a dust covered Ferrari parked in a garage or barn. Growing up in Wyoming, spotting high end muscle cars was pretty commonplace, but exotic cars were… more»
Affordable Supercar: 1973 De Tomaso Pantera
Pantera values have been on an upward trend lately, so if you are in the market, this might be a good time to pick one up. These cars represent an affordable alternative to more exotic supercars. That doesn’t mean… more»
Jeff in the Junkyard: Memory Lane

This 1972 DeTomaso Pantera is said to have been recently removed from barn storage and is now listed here on eBay with a Buy-it-Now of $65,000. More and more, these Italian-bodied, American-powered supercars are being offered with the promise… more»
The California Daytona Spider!
Now, don’t get too excited! This isn’t actually a real Ferrari Daytona. It’s a California Daytona Spider and it’s a dang good replica. It was built by Tom McBurnie and is based of off a 1978 Corvette. McBurnie actually made molds off a… more»
Jeff In The Junkyard: Woodland Treasures
I had to find some new territory recently. It was bittersweet, in a way, because this latest yard represented the last of my “new” places on a list of six yards I identified over the winter. So, I’ll need… more»

When most of us think of Fiat, images of compact cars come to mind, but this 116 year old company hasn’t always built small cars. At one time, they were the Ford of Italy and produced just about every… more»
1970 Siata Spring: Topless Oddball
We last featured a Siata Spring in May, 2015 and that one gave clear indication that these cars can rust underneath while looking fairly solid on top. That makes me very cautious looking closely at this find from Jim S, which is… more»
1971 Fiat 850 Racer: Ambition Required
