A-peeling Coupe: 1969 Triumph GT6+

When the Triumph Spitfire debuted in 1962, the fact that it had the small 1147cc Herald-based engine didn’t matter to a market hungry for an Italian-styled pretty little sports car. Unlike its main competitors (the Austin-Healey Sprite/MG Midget tandem)… more»

1971 Mustang Boss 351 Project

After Josh’s “pace car in pieces” Camaro story from the other day, I figured I’d better followup with something from the blue oval. This 1971 Mustang rivals that Camaro in more ways than one! It may be fully assembled… more»

911 Power: 1970 Porsche 914/6

Pace Car in Pieces: 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z11

When Chevy was asked to provide the official pace cars for the 1969 Indianapolis 500, they went all out for the occasion. They didn’t just build a couple pace cars, they built an entire fleet. They crafted several ’69… more»

El Camino Alternative: 1982 Dodge Rampage

As many of you with older siblings likely know, coveting your brother’s possessions are standard rules of engagement. Despite having a fairly large Matchbox and Hot Wheels collection of my own, I still tried to barter for a few… more»

Period Nasty Boy: 1956 Austin-Healey 100

Of all the Big Healeys produced, the ones built between 1953-1956 will always be my favorites. Sure, the later cars benefited from many improvements, but the purity of the early cars just can’t be beat! The triangular grill was… more»

Mustang Alternative: 1967 Mercury Cougar

America has had an on-again, off-again love affair with the Mustang since day one and in recent years they have become extremely popular, but with popularity comes inflated prices. Over the past few years I have watched the original… more»

The Big Boy: 1937 Terraplane Pickup

Foxy Turbo: 1985 Ford Mustang SVO

Instant Wedding Car Business: 2 Austin Limos

I’ll admit it. I have thought about starting a wedding car business on occasion. I like cake as much as the next guy, but I can’t really say that I enjoy weddings all that much. The prospect of owning a… more»

Survivor or Restored: 1967 VW Beetle

Now that I’ve been here in Boise for a little while, I’ve notice this town has a plethora of classic cars, but one car is more common than any other. Prior to moving here, if you had asked me… more»

Microwave Not Included: 1979 Subaru Brat

When it comes to utility vehicles, the Subaru Brat has to be one of the more interesting ones ever built. It was based on a Subaru station wagon, but with the rear roof section cut off. To get around… more»
