Honest car reviews both big and small
Cab-forward in a small package In the late 90s, Chrysler had hit a home run with its revolutionary cab-forward designs. The LH platform cars, the Chrysler Concorde, Chrysler LHS, Chrysler 300M, Dodge Intrepid, and Eagle Vision were considered way ahead of their time. That same concept also came in a smaller package, the Neon, and... Continue Reading →
One of the many AMC cars found in my driveway growing up ,,, For those of you that don't follow this blog regularly, I have a fondness for the vehicles built by American Motors, mostly because my dad worked for the company from 1963 to 1989. 1970 was a special year because AMC swung for...

AMC’s entry into the personal luxury market. American Motors almost always had to swing for the fence when it came to introducing new products because they didn’t have the big budgets to work with like GM, Ford, and Chrysler did. The same went for their marketing. Enter the second generation Matador in 1974 and with... Continue Reading →
Blingy Warlock pickup stirred our love of custom trucks ... I have to admit that when I heard Auto World was releasing the 1977 Dodge Warlock I was confused.

Two-tone cars also were all the rage as the nation climbed out of the gloomy war years into the bustling 1950s. So, a... Continue Reading →
1960s Valiant Acapulco a simple car, no matter the year ... We all have our first car stories, but in 1963 my dad brought home our first new car, at least in my lifetime.

1935 Stout Scarab, the first minivan ... I’ve seen two Stout Scarabs in my life, one up close and personal, one in a museum. Both were amazing. The Scarab was a minivan before anyone even thought of minivans. It’s a rounded aerodynamic bug of a car, before the world was aware of the VW Beetle,... Continue Reading →
Imperial Crown Southampton: When styling still mattered ... As a kid I, like many folks at the time, liked cars with jet-like fins. Plus I’ve always been a sucker for the cool fake spare tire molded into the trunk lid. So Imperials, Chrysler’s luxury brand, were, and are, a favorite. Few Imperials were more impressive...

Toyota Corolla still running strong 50 years on ... Like Energizer’s bunny, Toyota’s Corolla just keeps on running through the generations and has succeeded like no other car model.
