Honest car reviews both big and small
From the 1,500 hp P-51 Mustang to 100 hp ultralights That's what you'll see each year at the Experimental Aircraft Association's (EAA) AirVenture held each year on the last week of July. This year's event was the 23rd to the 30th and I sped by for me, well, like Boeing's B-1B did while making high-speed... Continue Reading →
New Jeep Compass leapfrogs its predecessor ... Jeep has remade its Compass and moved it from near the bottom of the small crossover sport-utility list to much nearer the top. The former Compass didn’t impress in any way, while the new Compass starts by looking like a miniature Jeep Grand Cherokee with a handsome 7-bar grille... Continue Reading →
Often overlooked '56 Chevy Bel Air gets its due ... Whose family didn’t own a 1950s Chevy when the entire country was seeing the U.S.A. from their Chevrolet? Our family had a green 1955 Chevy 210, the mid-level model that ultimately became the Biscayne. That car ran forever and was still an attractive hardtop (ok,... Continue Reading →

MINI's Countryman is bigger, not necessarily better ... The new MINI Cooper Countryman goes too far, but maybe that’s what U.S. buyers want. It’s the biggest MINI yet. I know that sounds contradictory for the small British-born make now made by BMW. But it’s true. This is MINI’s version of a crossover or small sport-ute with a... Continue Reading →
NEO's Chrysler Newport touts edgy styling ... There are some relatively obscure cars from the 1950s and early 1960s that just don’t get their due from die-cast car makers, even though these vehicles are stellar examples of that era’s radical styles. Now NEO has created a 1961 Chrysler Newport wagon that highlights some of that... Continue Reading →
Replicarz goes bigger, produces winner with Joe Leonard's championship car ... Joe Leonard was a heck of a racer, on two wheels and four. He not only won three motorcycle championships, the hard-nosed driver also moved up to Indy cars and won the 1971 USAC championship running virtually the same car as his teammate, Al...

Fiat 500 Abarth pumps up the low-cost fun ... Few cars are pure joy to drive, yet cost less than $30,000. I’d put the Mazda Miata at the top of those, and a few models of the Mini Cooper would slot into this price range. But Fiat’s 500 Abarth is a relative newcomer and blows... Continue Reading →
Chevrolet's first El Camino blends car, truck ... Today the blending of cars and trucks seems natural as SUVs and crossovers have become the preferred mode of personal transportation in the United States. But in the late 1950s and early 1960s such a thought was downright odd. Ford stirred the beast first when it created the Ranchero and... Continue Reading →
New VW Golf Alltrack brings fun to wagons ... Volkswagen brings a little fun to the small wagon market, which is a niche of a niche these days, but certainly compares well with small crossovers. But instead of a tall boxy AWD vehicle, the Golf Alltrack is a decidedly leaner machine that looks downright sporty compared... Continue Reading →
