1950-1975
Ah the Datsun 240Z — such a legendary off-roader built for jumping sand dunes and curbs. Power comes from some kind of V8 with side exit exhausts…and what? Who in the CHATGPT wrote this article? It is the worst combination of a Brobdingnag vocabulary and toddler understanding of each word. Ugg. Find this 1980 Datsun […]
This next car comes as a tip from Dave in Tampa who writes: An astonishing deal on a bona fide classic with air conditioning and a three (four?) on the tree. It actually pains me to share this rather than go buy it, but I’m trying to lighten my load so we can move abroad. […]
This next car comes from BP who writes: Something to watch. Despite being on the rather ‘pricey’ Bring a Trailer site (BaT.com) is this MGB currently at $1450 with 3 days of the 7 gone already. Surprisingly low for relative to a bunch of other B’s coincidentally listed at this time. Nevertheless, clean, interesting, and […]
The original Volkswagen Beetle was a styling exercise in curves — there really wasn’t a straight line in the body, except for maybe the doors. So it seems strange to design a kit car that can be built from sheet metal with only a straight edge and a saw blade, but that’s what we’ve got […]
This next car comes as a tip from Rock On who writes: Imagine how embarrassing it would be to get smoked by this Excalibur while you’re out cruising in your Mustang GT!!! Imagine an Excalibur that has enough power to pull a magical sword out of a stone and that’s what we’ve got today. Find […]
Behold the magnificent Starlight coupe, a sassy 2-door body style that sashayed its way into the Studebaker Corporation’s lineup in South Bend, Indiana, USA, strutting its stuff from 1947 to 1955 alongside the Champion and Commander model series. This snazzy creation, dreamed up by none other than Virgil Exner, who’d previously kicked it with the […]
This next car comes as a tip from Dave in Tampa who writes: That’s the problem with most FB ads, you’re never really sure what the transmission is unless the seller actually took a photo of the interior. Anyway, this is a lovely survivor. Probably. Find this 1976 Honda Accord offered for $4,800 in Land […]
Billionaire investor/car guy/Yugo lover Malcom Bricklin first started importing the Subaru 360 in 1968, selling them for a starting price of $1,297. Unfortunately, importation of the 360 ended in 1969, shortly after the muckrakers at Consumer Reports labeled the lightweight as “Not Acceptable” due to safety concerns. However, today’s 360 Ladybug isn’t a true Ladybug, […]
This next car comes as a tip from Rock On who writes: Long winded ad, the way you like them! Hey, that’s not…well..errr…yes, this is indeed they way I prefer advertisements. The short ones with two photos at a gas station just don’t cut it. Find this 1969 Opel GT offered for $23,000 in West […]
If you follow DT, you’ll know that we enjoy finding random coupes, sedans, wagons that have been turned into El Caminos…because everybody loves an El Camino. But what happens when an El Camino owner wants a wagon? The prudent answer might be to sell the El Camino and El buy yourself a wagon…but not today. […]
