I’ve got some questions about this next car. But first, I’m going to admit that I’ve been on a bit of an emotional rollercoaster with my feelings about it. At first I was horrified by the front end. But than I started to appreciate the hot-rod rear end. And then I started to appreciate the […]
It might be the exhaust fumes speaking, but the C4 is starting to grow on me. I think I need a fan to exhaust the fumes after I’ve parked my classic car into my garage/office, because it gets pretty spicy in here. Anyway, the C4 generation Corvette was a big styling change from the previous […]
The C3 generation of Chevrolet’s Corvette was introduced for the 1968 model year and is an iconic shape in any condition. The early cars with their chrome bumper and free breathing engines are the choice collector cars, but the later cars are cheap. Today’s Stingray has some needs before it becomes your Friday night car […]
We featured a cheap and crazy custom Porsche the other day as an alternative to the really expensive Frankenstein movie car from Death Race 2000. But you guys didn’t like that Porsche, and I think I finally figured it out. It might be 1/5th the cost of the movie car, but at almost $10k it […]
The C4 generation Corvette was a big styling change from the previous C3 Vette. Gone were the stingray inspired fender humps and instead the car featured Lotus Esprit meets a door style styling. It might be the exhaust fumes speaking, but the C4 is starting to grow on me. Find this 1986 Chevrolet Corvette C4 offered […]
The C3 generation Corvette isn’t the most collectable of Vettes, but that shouldn’t stop you from wanting to get your 70s vibe on. Today’s example has a few dents and dings on its fiberglass body, but it also has a sweet custom wagon back rear end that looks awesome. It will need some expertise in […]
If you think about a car from 1995, it doesn’t seem that old. At least to me it doesn’t seem that old, but then I was daily driving a car from 1994 until my wife told me I was insane. The styling isn’t that far out and the 350 cubic inch V8 isn’t a that […]
Is it Halloweentime already? Wow, the seasons change quickly and time flies. But nothing quite flies like a custom BatMobile…or is this a snowplow? Maybe both? Perhaps, however, this is the harbinger of Horrorods to come in this festive season of DailyTurismoWeen. Find this 1971 Chevrolet Corvette offered for $18000 near Huntsville, AL via craigslist. […]
The later 74+ plastic bumper version of the C3 Corvette (1968-1982) is not the most desirable or collectable of Corvettes, but it’ll probably get you more street cred than a C4 (or even C5) Vette. In California, this pre-75 example is free from the bi-annual smog inspection that could otherwise have you scratching your head […]
I don’t own a C4 Corvette, but if I did it wouldn’t be one of those wicked ZR1s or a Grand Sport…because they are expensive and only offer a minimum of improvement over a base Vette. So, I’d find a C4 with a Doug Nash 4+3 manual gearbox with a two tone exterior brown/gold paint […]
