Unlikely Candidate: 1977 Ford LTD Landau

Here’s a head scratcher. Why would anyone perform a full frame-off restoration on a 1977 Ford LTD? I’m guessing that this big four-door held some fond memories for someone because it obviously wasn’t a financially driven decision. After spending $20k they do have… more»

One Seater! 1981 Freeway

100 miles per gallon from a classic car? I guess that may depend on your definition of “car”! This Freeway has the less powerful 12 horsepower Tecumseh engine (versus the optional 16 hp that only got 80 mpg) and is located… more»

A Trio: Jensen-Healey Convertibles

As we’ve noted recently here, there are some Jensen-Healey bargains to be had. Offering most of the same attributes as a comparable TR6 or MG, but with a little more sophisticated interior and a Lotus-sourced slant four engine, these… more»

Open Book: 1966 Plymouth Barracuda

I’m sure it’s tempting to list a car like this with only a few poor, potentially misleading photographs, which is why I really admire this seller’s honest portrayal of the car and the explicit pictures they have included of… more»

1963 Pontiac Bonneville: Employee Special

I’ve never gone through the new car buying process at GM, but I’ve heard the list of options can be somewhat overwhelming. In other words, it isn’t as if there’s one or two packages to choose from; instead, buyers… more»

Pretty Kitty: 1968 Mercury Cougar

This nice looking, largely original Cougar is located in Hammonton, New Jersey and is listed for sale here on eBay where bidding hasn’t met reserve at $200. With only 53,530 miles, fresh paint and a really nice original interior,… more»

Jeff in the Junkyard: Amish Country Part 2

I mentioned in last week’s Jeff in the Junkyard round-up that my trip to Amish Country offered more than enough fodder for a few weeks’ worth of posts. We’ll move onto new territory next week, but for now, I still have… more»

Discount Driver: 1972 Oldsmobile 88

Finding a classic car at an affordable price seems to be getting harder all the time. So, sometimes you have to consider cars that you wouldn’t normally lust after. Take this 1972 Oldsmobile 88 for example. Normally, I would… more»

1979 Ford Fairmont Ghia: Malaise Fighter

The Ford Fairmont is not a car that conjures up much in the way of impassioned feelings of “must-have” ownership. But like any malaise-era vehicle, if you take things in a better direction that the manufacturer did, it might… more»

1979 AMC Pacer: Oddball Wagon

Equipped with even more glass than the original Pacer (which is saying a lot), and looking so very period, this 1979 Pacer Limited Wagon is located in Carlsbad, California and is for sale here on eBay for a buy-it-now of… more»

Blank Canvas: 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air

There sure have been a lot of people digging out cars lately. Heck, most of these folks don’t even unload them off the trailer before snapping photos and listing them for sale! Apparently, this 1957 Chevrolet belonged to a friend… more»
