The third-generation Chevrolet Caprice (1977-1990) is an interesting piece of automotive history, and its Bill Mitchell-designed two-door coupe version isn’t bad-looking on the street in 2025. Riding on the GM B-body platform means body-on-frame rebuildability and parts swap options with the Buick LeSabre / Estate, Chevy Impala, Olds 88 / Custom Cruiser, Pontiac Bonneville / […]
The fourth generation of Chevrolet’s full-sized Impala was built from 1965 though 1970 at various factories around the US of A. GM built so many of the 65-70 B-body that they popped up assembly lines from Delaware to Van Nuys (California) making it the 4th greatest selling platform in the history of cars (behind the […]
It might be difficult to tell when parked next to some huge modern full sized pickup truck, but the Chevrolet Impala wagon is huge. It was built on GM’s full sized B-body chassis, which was bigger than the mid-sized A-Body chassis that you might find in the form of a Chevrolet Chevelle Wagon or a Buick Sportwagon. The seller of today’s next car is asking an optimistic price for this wood sided land barge, but with the current pace of car price inflation this might be as much as a decent tip at a restaurant by the end of next summer.

The 4th generation Dodge Monaco was a big malaise era equivalent of striped velour v-neck shirt. This thing reeks of chest carpets and overgrown man-hair held back by a tennis headband (see Bjorn Borg at Wimbledon in 1978 for reference in case you weren’t alive back then or lived under a rock)….and I love it.

Personal two door coupes sold by the truck loads in the 60’s-70’s-80’s, but are hardly produced any longer in 2018. Today’s Impala coupe has been given a Grand National style black out treatment and the results look almost vintage AMG like by my eye. Under the hood features a Chevy LS swap that should motivate […]
The last General Motors body on frame car the was sold in 1996. Police, taxi drivers, and most DT readers mourned the loss and had to migrate over to the last of the Mohicans: Ford’s Panther platform. The Buick Roadmaster and cousin Cadillac Fleetwood are the only cars that almost look normal (proper even?) with […]
The Buick Roadmaster certainly has its fans around these parts; the body-on-frame finale of GM’s Land Yacht division was available as a 4-door sedan, yes, but more importantly as a full-on wagon, akin to the Chevy Caprice. Ford may have made the Crown Victoria until 2011, but this whale you see here is the last […]
Here is a plus sized car for today’s plus sized day. That’s right, today is the day to set your clocks back and enjoy an extra hour of scouring the internet for cheap custom junk for sale — unless you live in Arizona, Hawaii or a few rogue counties in Indiana. Find this 1969 Chevrolet […]
