The Ultimate Sleeper: 402-Equipped Chevy Sprint

At first glance,  I really thought this was a listing for a low-mileage Chevy Sprint. Sure, not a world-beater, but the Turbo Sprints were pretty cool and certanly finding one with low-mileage today would be a rare find. But… more»

15 Miles from New: Ford Thunderbird Super Coupe

What you’re looking at here is a supposed 15 original mile 1990 Ford Thuderbird Super Coupe 35th Anniversary Edition. The seller is asking for $25K or best offer, which seems slightly out of reach. Still, it’s neat to see… more»

$2,500 Hatchback: 1974 AMC Hornet

It ain’t no Hornet SC/360, but this 1974 AMC Hornet hatchback is a fraction of the price at $2,500 or offer. I threw in the “or offer” part, because we all know that 99% of humans who buy vehicles… more»

Big Block 4 Speed: 1966 Corvette Convertible

C2 Corvettes are handsome machines often packing big block power, and a drop top like this 1966 model. Factory equipped with a 427 and a 4 speed, it doesn’t get much better than this. After 28 years of storage… more»

Blue Chip Car: Low Mileage 1983 Mercedes 300D

We hate to use the same hyperbole as sellers, but sometimes it’s hard not to share in their enthusiasm. This particular car, part of the legendary Mercedes-Benz W123 family, looks everything like the survivor it’s purported to be. With… more»

Ford stopped making “big” station wagons in 1991 with the demise of the LTD Crown Victoria, though they did continue making the smaller Taurus wagon until 2005. This Town Car is somebody’s version of “what if” the bigger wagons… more»

Thanks to Paul B. who found this 1939 Plymouth Coupe located in Westfield, Massachusetts and listed here on Western Massachusetts craigslist.  I drove a 1940 Plymouth to Senior Prom about 20 years after this one rolled into a barn… more»

Low-Budget Baby Lincoln: 1950 Lincoln EL

While probably *not* destined for a stunning factory restoration, this 1950 Lincoln EL sedan could easily become an upscale ’50 Mercury-style low-rider, and in-fact numerous such examples exist. It would also make a stunning “wedding car” in tuxedo black… more»

Muscle Mania: 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge

This GTO Judge has been sitting on jack stands since 1990 and the odometer is only showing 42k miles. The seller doesn’t state that the mileage is correct, but they believes that the plug wires are original to the… more»

Ur-TR: 1955 Triumph TR2

For all we see at most car events where British sports cars gather, Triumph’s roadster lineage may as well have started with the TR3, but it stands to reason that before there was a 3, there had to be… more»

Holy Grail Hornet: 1971 AMC Hornet SC/360

Holy man / holy grail – this is not a car that a person sees too often, if ever. With a reported 150 examples left in this configuration, this 1971 AMC Hornet SC/360 is one highly desirable car. The… more»
