Honest car reviews both big and small
It carried a bad nickname for some owners, Ruster. OK, so right out of the gate, Mopar fans, I really like the Duster. Easy now. We OK? My personal experience comes from my best friend who owned one. He bought it used and I'm not sure how many miles he had on it. I do... Continue Reading →
Talk about a car that was handicapped right out of the gate. That's pretty much the story of the Mercury Comet. Why did I pick this car? Well, for two reasons, my uncle had one and I'm partial to orphan brands hence my affection for American Motors. OK, so now here's the first handicap. Ford... Continue Reading →
Usually when I get ready to make a new blog post on a promo model I have seen it for sale at some auction site but this time I took a bit of a different run at it. I tried to find the car first. In this case a 1948 Hudson Hornet. Why that? Sure... Continue Reading →
Turning a junker into a gem Barn find is a term used when somebody finds a really special car which has been sitting in the corner of a barn all covered up. What the treasure hunter will do is restore the car to the way it came out of the factory. But restoration projects are... Continue Reading →
The Pony Car market was red hot in 1967. After seeing what Ford had in the Mustang introduced three years before, the other manufactures jumped into the game big time. General Motors had two entries in the game, the Chevy Camaro and Pontiac Firebird which shared the same F-body platforms. There were differences between the... Continue Reading →

Now think Bond, James Bond. Super awesome car chases in those movies but because, as you all know, I... Continue Reading →
The rarest of the rare for both the real deal and the promo model I track a lot of auctions both on eBay and some of the others specific to promo models. This weekend, on eBay, I was watching a '69 Dodge Coronet 500 convertible with bidding in 4 figures, something I have not seen... Continue Reading →
Like any car guy I subscribe to a lot of newsletters. I like to keep up on what's new, what's cool, what's fast:), and collector cars, mostly from the the 60's and 70's. This week I received my AutoWeek newsletter, parused it, and low and behold came across this car. Now of course being an... Continue Reading →
The aim was right, well sort of Ford invested $400,000,000 in its development and those were mid-5o's numbers. Can you imagine what that would have taken in today's dollars? Yikes. It would be enough to bankrupt a car maker. The Edsel is most famous for being a marketing disaster and the name "Edsel" became synonymous with commercial... Continue Reading →
I bet you're laughing right now if you were around when it was built from 1975 and 1979. It was positioned by American Motors as "The first wide small car". Also unique at the time, the passenger door was four inches (101 mm) longer than the driver's. This made passenger loading easier, particularly from the rear seats. I... Continue Reading →
