Honest car reviews both big and small
A landmark truck, if there ever was one Happy New Year! $30 million bucks is a lot of money today. Still, in the mid-50s, it must have represented a fortune to Ford when it decided to go back to the drawing board to redesign its F-100s using something that had never been done before, an...

The last design personally attributed to Battista Pininfarina I bet if you went to any event and asked people to name one Italian sports car, they'd say Ferrari because of the brand's legacy of performance and luxury. After all, who wouldn't want to own one, but then there's the money, it's always about the money,... Continue Reading →
Tried to please everyone but ended up appealing to almost no one. I've been looking for one of these for the longest time. Not because they're cool, just the opposite. I know, as an owner of a '72 AMC Gremlin and '75 Pacer, what's the saying? Those in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. Well, at... Continue Reading →
The original hybrid For the most part, compact cars of the '60s were nothing to write home about. Basic transportation was the answer to higher fuel prices and imports. Ford's entry was the Falcon, today almost forgotten, but it was how the Mustang, and this week's spot, a 67 Ford Ranchero, came about. The snazzy... Continue Reading →
Typical late 60s car with power and style ... I think the mid- to late-60s were the golden age for American automobile manufacturers, mainly because horsepower was king and each company was trying to outdo the others. This week's spot, a 67 Dodge RT Coronet Convertible, is a great example. I found this spot this... Continue Reading →
Famously called "the most beautiful car ever made" by Enzo Ferrari When you think of iconic cars from the '60s, the ones I think about are the '63 Split Window Corvette, '64 Pontiac GTO, '65 Mustang, 1966 Lamborghini Miura, and this week's spot, the Jaguar E-Type. Actually, some consider it the greatest sports car of... Continue Reading →
A twentieth-century Conestoga wagon In some ways VW of the 60s could be compared to Chrysler of 80s utilizing one platform to create so many vehicles. This week's spot, a VW single cab pickup is a great example of the company's ingenuity. Introduced in the early 50s it was one of the most advanced commercial... Continue Reading →
AMC's replacement for the Gremlin As much as I love American Motors, there were times when they rode with a model too long. Take, for example, the Gremlin. Introduced in 1970, they made changes, but should have moved on way before 1978. Sales were strong early in its production, peaking at over 170,000 units in... Continue Reading →
Brought to you by the same guy who imported the Yugo If you're a regular reader of my posts you know that I'm a lover of all cars weird. I'd have to be to be an AMC geek. This spot comes from Malcom Bricklin, importer of the Subaru 360 that I found earlier this year... Continue Reading →
It's like driving from your living room If you were looking for a luxury car, the mid-70s had lots to choose from. With just about every option available, you could fit comfortably into a Chrysler New Yorker and Cordoba, Lincoln Continental Mark V, Ford Thunderbird, Cadillac Eldorado, Buick Riviera, or this week's spot, the Riviera's...
