It’s official: Roadkill has hit a high point with popularity, and this Craigslist ad for a green 1970 Plymouth Duster in Washington State is one of the first we’ve seen that is bent on...
Rough Start: This Chevelle Trar Is Up There, Both In Stature And In Price, But Is It Worth The Risk?
It’s strange to find a nearly-complete trar that falls under the Rough Start budget, but the last time we stumbled upon a decent one it was fairly loved. But the last trar we showed was...
Craigslist Find: Roto-Master Turbocharger Kit For A Small-Block Mopar
I’ve heard of the motorhome turbocharger kits for Chrysler big-blocks before, but this just might be the first time I’ve seen a similar system for a Chrysler small-block. Manufactured by...
Rough Start: This 401-powered AMC Spirit AMX Is Another Slight Stretch Of The Budget Worth Making
If there is one car above all the others that has been eating at the back of my mind lately it is any of the AMC Spirit models. They are a good sized car, they are unique, they are a fairly handsome...
Rough Start: This Clean 1968 Imperial Barely Breaks The Bank, But It’s A Lot Of Car For The Money
The dream for any car hunter is to find a vehicle from yesteryear that offers a lot of bang for the bucks that are spent. It doesn’t matter if it’s the fastest, or the prettiest, or the...
Rough Start: If You Can Find A Better Deal Than This 1996 Impala SS for $2500, Buy It

Rough Start: This 1970 Pontiac LeMans Wagon Is A Clean Stocker With The Worst Possible Sales Line
Someone, somewhere, needs this car. Brian and I had our little spat involving station wagons this last winter and it became pretty obvious that there is a lot of you that like your roofs long....
On The Plus Side, It’s A Mostly Complete 1941 Ford With A Flathead V8. On The Other Side, There Are Clowns…

Craigslist Find: This 1937 Packard One-Twenty Sedan Is Packing A 5.9 Cummins Under That Clean, Stock Look
