    Saw a sweet 80's El Camino yesterday -- looked very well kept, interesting factory color combo.

    I always liked the Studebaker Hawks. It's too bad that Studebaker forgot the lesson of the Mopar Airflows: It's dangerous to be too far ahead of your time.

    I agree 99.9% of the time. Something about that Buick design though with the huge wheel well openings, it seems to work better.

    I love the 69 Mach 1. Probably my favorite Mustang ever. My friend had a black one with 351 Windsor, didn't even have a 4 barrel, but the way he drove it you'd think it had a 428CJ.

    Local mechanic picked this up for $1,000.

    Saw this GS vert in a Firestone on the Northside of Chicago today, looked great even from this far away.

    Nice 72! A little-known fact that I discovered is that the Cutlass ragtops and four-door sedans use the same decklid, which is specific to those two bodystyles.

    discovered this beautifull Dodge early this spring after I felt really sorry for her as she was sitting, totally covered in snow at the curbside of a busy road with busses passing close. And of course a road that sees a lot of salt.
    By the paint patterns I'd assume it came from a much nicer and warmer climate.

    Saw this nice looking OBS Chevy truck parked in front of the grocery store (Publix). I think one like this may be my next vehicle...

    One for the Mopar guys. Lousy pic, but it’s the best I could do at 75…..
