31K-Mile 1978 Dodge Macho Power Wagon 4×4
One person sees “patina,” and another sees old, faded paint and surface rust. Which camp are you in? I could leave it as is, or restore it to how it would have looked. I like both options. The seller… more»

1-of-282: Restored 1973 Pontiac GTO
None of the muscle cars of the 1960s saw demand fall off faster than the Pontiac GTO. From a peak of 97,000 units in 1966, Pontiac couldn’t find 6,000 buyers in 1972. The 1973 model year brought renewed hope… more»

Brazilian Inline-Six: 1988 Ford L8000 Dump Truck
Old working trucks are among the most frequently discarded vehicles, in my opinion, typically because values drop to a point where it’s a difficult sell on the used market. Couple that with the sheer nuisance of relocating it and… more»

The Ultimate Sleeper? 1969 Chevrolet Nova SS 396
Oddly enough, I’ve talked to more than a few people who really don’t like Novas, and personally, I don’t get it. Sure, the second-generation bodystyle was never available as a hardtop or a convertible, but it still looks nice… more»
1,713-Mile One-Owner: 1984 Kawasaki KLR600
The sole owner of this 1984 Kawasaki KLR600 only rode it 1,713 miles in the last 41 years. Even for a motorcycle, this is a low-mile vehicle, and it appears to be an absolute gem. You can find this… more»

Rust-Free But Won’t Idle: 1989 Jeep Comanche
I’m not sure why I always think a Jeep has to have 4WD. It’s like seeing a hardtop version of a car that you normally see as a convertible, and it just seems strange. Jeep is just so well-known… more»

Parked In 2001: Rust-Free 1977 Ford Econoline

A Perfect Panama! 1954 Packard Clipper
“America’s newest glamour car is this dream-lined beauty,” so opines the 1954 Packard Clipper “Panama” sales brochure. It’s a powerful but safe statement at the same time. And since I’ve covered a couple of Packards as of late (a… more»

Kammback Survivor: 1973 Chevrolet Vega Estate Wagon
The Vega was Chevrolet’s first foray into subcompact automobiles. From 1971 to 1977, GM sold more than two million gas sippers, although the car was initially flawed (overheating engines, premature rusting). The “Kammback” was the 2-door station wagon edition,… more»
