Stupid Fast: 1963 Lotus Seven Twin Cam

As some of you are aware, I’m the proud owner of a Blakely Hawk (it wants to be a Lotus Seven), but I’ve had a hard time deciding what exactly to do with it. Well, that was until I saw… more»

Four-On-The-Floor: 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z28

This Z28 may be a little rough around the edges, but the engine has been rebuilt and there’s a four on the floor! By the time this Camaro was produced, most had slush boxes and in ’80 ’81 they even discontinued… more»

1979 Ferrari 400 With Only 4k Miles!

Allow me to preface this post by saying this: I am by no means a Ferrari expert. It is my understanding that the late 70’s and early 80’s Ferrari’s are the redheaded stepchildren of Enzo’s exclusive family. I, for… more»

Two Owner Survivor: 1972 Chevrolet Nova

Perhaps it is just me, but it seems there aren’t nearly as many Nova survivors as there should be. This 1972 model is a 2 owner car, and the original owner was a “Grandma.” Between the two owners this… more»

Three Mustangs, Two Fastbacks, One Price

I have found that over the years, as more parts from projects past and current continue to pile up, I become more altruistic with my spare parts sales. That is, I have started giving stuff away just to keep… more»

Dream Survivor: 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 429

Throughout the years so many valuable “dream” cars have been restored to tip top shape, and always command a high value. Today, there aren’t many unrestored dream cars, but boy when you see one, it really draws your attention…. more»

Little Blue Box: 1986 Nissan Stanza 4WD

I hope you have enjoyed Scotty G’s write-ups as much as I have! I think he is overly fond of Japanese cars, but perhaps it’s the effect of the long cold winters where he lives. When he asked me to… more»

Economic Econoline: 1965 Ford Econoline Pickup

I’ve always liked these things. Look at that, who wouldn’t like to own this? Come on! That wraparound rear side window, dang. And the legs-as-airbag.. er.. This is a 1965 Ford Econoline Pickup and it’s listed here on craigslist with… more»

Trans-Am Champ: 1974 AMC Javelin AMX

I’ve seen a lot of the “coke bottle” Javelins and AMXs in ads lately, but rarely are they this nice, original, and solid. Of course, you pay the price for that as well. The car is listed here on… more»

What A Buy! Maybe? $4k 1969 Triumph TR6

No, Howard, it doesn’t have overdrive, darnit. However, this 1969 Triumph TR6 looks like an excellent buy based on the pictures and information we have. It’s being advertised here on craigslist for only $4,000, which is pretty darned inexpensive… more»

Old Money: 1985 Rolls-Royce Silver Spur

What kind of car do you buy when you want people to think you’re rich? Well, this Rolls-Royce might be a good start. It reeks of money and has low miles so it might actually be a good buy. These cars were known… more»

Be Brave: 1975 Winnebago Brave D-21

Spring fever is hitting hard here in the Midwest, although having temperatures in the 50s and 60s in February was highly unusual and the snow went away a few weeks earlier than usual. Even though I drive 40,000+ miles… more»

Save These Classics! Pick ‘N Pull Project Vehicles

One of my biggest gripes about any number of self-service salvage yards is that they allow good project cars to go directly to scrap. There’s never a chance to “save” a car before it goes into the rows of… more»

EXCLUSIVE: 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle 454 Wagon!

Station wagons have clearly been gaining interest in the collector car world, especially high performance wagons. It makes sense, they didn’t build many, as most were just basic family transportation. Well this Chevelle Wagon wasn’t necessarily built to be… more»
