Fliparoo: 1964 Plymouth Barracuda

The Barracuda wasn’t very exciting when it was introduced. It was basically a fastback Valiant. Perhaps this ugly old Barracuda could be the start for a project though? Perhaps one of those expensive big engine and updated suspension projects?… more»

Pictures Worth A Lot of Words: Datsun 510

I complain frequently about the number and quality of photos we see in classic car ads. Just because the car is covered in dust and dirty doesn’t mean clear pictures aren’t appreciated, especially when deciding to bid on a… more»

Cut In Half: 1970 Marcos GT

This 1963 TR4 is listed here on craigslist for $4,500. It’s supposedly a barn find, but the the seller doesn’t provide any more information. Imagine a stuck engine and lots of rust (it’s in the Detroit area). It does look complete… more»

27k Mile: 1961 Oldsmobile Starfire Convertible

This grand old convertible sure brings back memories of the days of chrome and excess! This example looks complete, but I’m skeptical about the “only 27,000 miles” claim. The respray is unfortunate, but the seller does mention that it… more»

Not Just Any “Old Mustang”

From Chase V – A co-worker of mine from Minnesota mentioned that he had a cousin who was considering selling his “old Mustang”. I asked several questions and my co-worker (not a car guy) only knew that it was… more»

Pace Car Project: 1969 Chevrolet Camaro

We have featured one of these Camaro Pace Cars in the past, but it was in pieces. I’m not sure which is worse though. This body is full of rust and everything else is deteriorated. What is there though appears to… more»
