The World’s Fastest Cadillac Is Up For Auction: 409 mph At Bonneville With Lots More Potential
This one makes me sad and happy both. Sad because it is the end of a journey that I was a part of from the very early stages, but happy because I am hoping someone takes this rad machine and makes it...
Rough Start: Add An Extra Grand To The Budget For This Ballsy Dakota R/T!
Whenever I go daydream project hunting in areas of the Pacific Northwest, I try to keep an eye out for vehicles that I might have known. A Chevelle here, a Cutlass there, or maybe something that I...
Rough Start: 1980 Ford Fairmont Futura – Light And Rowdy Street Beater
The Ford Fairmont Futura (and it’s twin, the Mercury Zephyr Z-7), are love-it or hate-it cars. From the doors forward, it’s Fairmont. But from the doors back, you are looking at what was...
Rough Start: A Pontiac Grand Am That’s Begging For A New Beginning
Between the Pontiac Grand Am CA and the Chevrolet Malibu Black Sterling that I recently found, I’ve been foaming at the mouth of a 1978-82 GM A-body build. Look, I like the G-body cars....
1990s Pro Street Find: This 1995 Pontiac Firebird Has A 712ci Engine, A License Plate, and The Most ’90s Paint Ever
If Pro Street was born in the 1980s (1979 to be exact) than we think it kind of hit peak somewhere in the early 1990s. Yesterday McTag posted photos of a cool little Pontiac Grand Am that had gotten...

Rough Start “Tour Of Temptation”: 1981 GMC Caballero
The list of cars I actually want to own longer than a few weeks at a time is fairly short, to be honest. I want to sample everything, I want to push cars to the limit, I want to understand the...
Rough Start “Tour Of Temptation”: 1999 Mitsubishi 3000GT
As I’m typing this, I’m finally in Pueblo, Colorado. And am I grateful for that…if Great Bend, Kansas is qualified to be called “remote”, then everything in-between the...
Rough Start “Tour Of Temptation”: 1994 Dodge Ram 1500
Out of all of the trucks built since 1990, the 1994-2002 generation of the Dodge Ram is my favorite. When these things came out, they immediately made GM and Ford trucks look dated. The GM trucks had...
Rough Start “Tour Of Temptation”: 1972 Ford Maverick Sprint
Out of all of the vehicles I’ve looked at for the Tour of Temptation, this 1972 Ford Maverick Sprint might be the most palatable, I think. I could’ve easily picked the 1989 Chevrolet...
This 1991 Dick Gulstrand GS80 Corvette Is The Last One Made, Has TRACO Power, and Big Meats On The Corners
Yeah, yeah, I know. I’m falling into the same trance that other guys of my general age bracket are with the C4 Corvette these days. Honestly, these things have been ignored, mocked, turned into...
