Oldsmobile's final drop-top Nothing says Summer in Wisconsin than a convertible. This week's spot is an early 70's Oldsmobile Delta 88 Convertible. A sunny day with temps in the mid-70s is just the perfect day for a car like this. Would have been tough to miss this gen in the parking lot of the golf... Continue Reading →
Plymouth's "Gentleman" muscle car With Plymouth's Road Runner commanding the largest market share of the lower-priced muscle cars, Plymouth's management decided that it was time to offer a "Gentleman" muscle car, that would provide an "exceptional blend of style and performance".

A car that fit right in with the movement ... Chances are if you're reading this, like me you remember the late 1960s.
