Garage Find: 1972 Buick Riviera

The Buick Riviera was a somewhat unusual car from the beginning, but it’s hard to beat the third-generation examples for being over the top in outside appearance.  Beginning in 1971, the Riviera received a redesign featuring a large fastback… more»

1974 Plymouth Gran Fury Sport Suburban 440 V8

Wow, what a wagon! I don’t know if I’ve said that before, and I’m a fan of station wagons. When I think of a Plymouth Suburban, I think of the late 1940s or early 1950s two-door model, but they… more»

BF Exclusive: 1961 Jaguar Mark IX

4-on-the-Floor: 1976 Chevrolet Camaro V8

The second generation of the Chevrolet Camaro had an impressive 12-year run, from 1970 to 1981. And nearly 183,000 copies were built in 1976 alone, meaning that “iconic” might not be the best word to use in describing one…. more»

Just 34 Miles! 1976 Chevrolet Laguna S-3

In 1974, Chevrolet retired the Chevelle Super Sport and replaced it (more or less) with the Laguna S-3. Production numbers were somewhat low (less than 33,000 copies in three years), so an S-3 is harder to come across than… more»

Mail Order Motorcycle: 1960 Allstate DeLuxe 175

Before malls (“What’s a mall, daddy?”) and even online shopping, millions of us browsed through big, fat catalogs and bought items from underwear to houses and everything in between, including motorcycles. This 1960 Allstate DeLuxe 175 is one that… more»

Original Interior! Rare 1959 Edsel Villager Station Wagon

Ah, the Edsel. The car that the Ford Motor Company wished had never existed. I can’t help but feel a little sorry for former Ford CEO, Henry Ford II. I mean, how would you like having your father’s first… more»

V8-Ready Roller: 1974 Dodge Dart Swinger

Dodge added the Swinger model to the Dart line-up in 1969 to inject some sportiness into an otherwise boring compact (except for the GTS). The ploy worked, and Plymouth would replicate the 2-door hardtop in 1971 as the Valiant… more»

Parked In 1989: 1971 Plymouth Satellite Sebring

If I go first, there are several things I’m guessing my wife would probably dispose of right away, with my Nixie clock, drawers of tools, and shelf of old vinyl record albums immediately coming to mind.  However, there’s been… more»

Barn Find: 1966 Fiat 1100-D Station Wagon

About as close to an Italian “wagon” as most of us are likely to see on the road today would be an SUV: a used Maserati Levante or an Alfa Romeo Stelvio or Tonale, which are often much cheaper… more»

6-Cylinder Project: 1970 Chevrolet Nova

This 1970 Chevy Nova likely began life as a “Grandma” car. It has the right power equipment for that assumption (250 cubic inch inline-6, 2-speed automatic transmission, drum brakes). After 140,000 miles, it still runs, though the seller says… more»

33K-Mile One-Owner 1995 Oldsmobile Delta Eighty Eight Royale

33,832 miles in three decades? That’s the amount of driving that a lot of us do in a single year, so it’s always fun to see these ultra-low-mile cars from decades ago. A 1995 four-door sedan probably wouldn’t be… more»

Original Interior: Well-Preserved 1965 Oldsmobile Vista-Cruiser Wagon

By the mid-1960’s, the station wagon had gone mainstream and was well on its way of becoming America’s iconic symbol of sprawling suburbia. It was the most practical and comfortable way to haul kids, lawn and garden supplies, Little… more»
