If I just happened to have a large chunk of money sitting in my bank account right now, I would be making an offer on this ’69 Chevelle right now instead of writing this post! You see, this SS396… more»
Piles Of Parts: 1966 Mustang Coupe
The seller’s choice for the first photo in their ad seems rather strange, as it’s just a pile of parts. There’s actually a lot more here than just a random pile of Mustang parts. The auction, here on eBay… more»
Am I Blue: 1975 Porsche 914 Targa 2.0
The Porsche 914 never got much respect. They were more of a midengine VW sold by VW dealers. In Europe, the 914 didn’t even get the Porsche emblem on the hood. The previous entry lever Porsche, the 912, had… more»
Real Steel: 1932 Ford Vicky
It’s getting harder and harder to find original classic vehicles. It’s even more difficult to find “blue chip” original cars. When you do, they command such a premium that they are out of reach for the average collector. Such… more»
Field of Broken Dreams: Fiat 124 Spiders
From Rocco B. comes word of a cluster of Spiders right in my own backyard, five Fiat 124 Spiders. Spiders don’t come in herds or prides, they come in clusters. One spider is from 1969, the other 4 are… more»
True Blue Swede: 1974 Saab Sonett III
There was so much potential in Saab, it’s unfortunate that they aren’t still around, at least in their current form. The 1974 Saab Sonett III seen here is listed on eBay with a single bid of $999.99 (it must… more»
No Place To Store It: 1929 Model A Phaeton
One of the biggest problems our hobby faces is storage. Many potential entrants into our hobby live in apartments and condominiums, and if they even have a garage it is usually taken. A collectible car takes up a lot… more»
Flew To Church: 1953 Piper Super Cub
What an interesting craigslist posting for a 1954 Piper Super Cub out of Boise, Idaho: the seller claims this plane was used by its previous owner – the proverbial little old lady – to fly to church on the… more»
Empty the Barn! Queen Creek, AZ Estate Sale
Estate sales accomplish a sometimes daunting task: letting go of a loved one’s lifetime accumulation of vehicles, tools, and unfinished projects. At the same time they tell a story about the late owner, and present an opportunity for his… more»
No CDL Needed: 1991 International Motorhome
I’m not quite sure what compels you to build something like this, other than the local R/V dealer had nothing stock that suited your specific needs. This 1991 International is a truly custom motorhome that’s on the market due… more»
Burnt Quadravan: 1986 Ford E-Series 4×4
As much as I love my Toyota HiAce project and want to see it camping beneath the moon and the stars, there’s one drawback that gives me pause: it’s rear wheel drive. Now, I prefer RWD, but since the… more»
One Owner Coupe: $3,995 1971 MGB GT
It’s been a while since we’ve featured an MGB GT, and even longer since Jesse and Josh counted one of these among their vehicle fleet (at least I think that one’s been sold – hard to remember). But if… more»
Not For Parts: 1987 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS
Anyone who has spent any time looking at cars online (which should be most of us here!) is familiar with the frequent ads stating if the vehicle is not sold by a certain date, it will be parted out… more»
Last On the Road in ’65: 1954 Chevy Corvette
“I know what I’ve got.” Sometimes, the seller can say this without fear of repraisal. A numbers-matching, apparently survivor-grade 1954 Corvette is one such vehicle where some level of seller swagger is to be expected. Regardless, the approach to… more»
Solid Driver: 1969 Plymouth Fury Suburban Wagon
There’s nothing I like as much as a nice Dodge, except for maybe a nice Plymouth! This 1969 Fury Suburban is everything I want in a driver quality classic, except for the Chevrolet wheels. This appears to be a… more»
