Honest car reviews both big and small
1970 Ford Torino 'Cobra Jet' was bargain muscle car ... My wife’s family had an early 1970s Ford Torino, and while it looked OK and had oodles of power, it wasn’t really a very good car. But these were the big Fords that raced in NASCAR in the day and in coupe version had a... Continue Reading →
A 1971 Plymouth GTX you can afford ... My neighborhood was packed with Road Runners back in the early 1970s, in no small part because we had one of the top-selling Chrysler-Plymouth dealerships in Indiana a few blocks from my house. The wild fruity colors of the late 1960s and early ‘70s lit up the... Continue Reading →
True 1/64 scale cars are little gems from Round2 …  Didn’t most of us start out collecting Matchbox, or later Hot Wheels, die-casts? I spent a lot of time ogling and dreaming about those 75 metal 1/64 (roughly) scale Matchbox vehicles in my hobby shop’s display case. And when really lucky, I snagged a... Continue Reading →
1957 T-bird wonderful in white! ... Early Thunderbirds were a lovely blend of two-seater styling and boulevard cruiser with dandy hooded headlights and tiny jet-like fins on the tail. This was Ford’s effort to Americanize the sports car market that the British car makers had created after World War II, and it worked. Thunderbirds were... Continue Reading →
Olds' Cutlass 442 was a beautiful beast ... One of the cars I learned to drive on was our family’s 1969 Oldsmobile Cutlass S – no power steering and a big throbbing V8 under its long hood. The car was a beast, but beautiful dressed in its Aztec Gold paint scheme. For that matter, the... Continue Reading →
Dodge Charger Super Bee looks fast Remember when some drag racers still looked like real cars? In the early 1970s the car bodies still closely resembled the real deal, so manufacturers lent their name and expertise, not to mention engines and other equipment, to rule the nation’s dragstrips. The Dodge-sponsored Rod Shop race team was... Continue Reading →
1/24-scale 1969 Dodge Charger a nice value ... Originally I was not a big Dodge Charger or American Motors Marlin fan. Both were too radical in their fastback designs for me. I preferred the Plymouth Baracuda and Ford’s Mustang 2+2. But by 1968 the second generation Charger looked racier to me and in 1969 Dodge... Continue Reading →
Chevrolet Biscayne was a go-to car for years While Auto World’s new 1/18 scale Chevrolet Biscayne Coupe is a lot snazzier looking in its Aztec Bronze paint scheme, it reminds me of some of the Plain Jane Chevy’s my great uncle  and other relatives used on their Indiana farms. Those were usually white, tan or... Continue Reading →
Eye-catching paint job and high value for this Camaro SS I learned to drive a stick shift on my Uncle Wink’s 1967 Camaro SS, so I’ll forever have a soft spot for 1960s Camaros. Auto World seems to too, creating numerous muscular 1960s die-cast Camaros in various scales. Serious model car builders love their muscle in 1/24... Continue Reading →
Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS454 a short-lived muscle car I lived through the 1970s, in fact my first car was an early ‘70s Plymouth, but I can tell you that good-looking and quality cars of that era were few and far between. But for Chevy, the 1971 Monte Carlo was a big seller, a full-size luxury... Continue Reading →
