Gil Rodger is an old-fashioned guy. This is why he did his ’54 Chevy in an old-fashioned way. From frenched headlights and taillights, to the original rebuilt engine, to a “rounded hood,” his classic bowtie cruiser is done just the way they used to do it. What’s a rounded hood, you ask?

We caught up to what appears to be a 1969 Buick Sport Wagon at the recent Cruisin’ Gimli Beach car show, fully loaded with the Sky Roof and the 400-cubic inch Buick V8 engine. Restorers, hot rodders, and other gearheads used to raid station wagons for parts to get their 2-doors fixed up. Ironically, this [...]
Desperate times call for desperate measures, which is the “New GM” excuse for killing off the Pontiac brand. That still doesn’t make it right, but it looks like that’s the final word. Unlike Roger Penske’s purchase of Saturn and Koenigsegg’s early Christmas present, The General has turned down any and all offers to purchase Pontiac. [...]

AMC was the smallest of the mainstream car companies, which made it easier for them to get away with crazy things like this red, white & blue Javelin. If you look even closer, you might catch a glimpse of the Pierre Cardin-designed interior.
Thanks to Burt Reynolds, the vast majority of ’77-’78 Pontiac Trans-Ams were painted jet black with gold ThunderChickens on the hood. That just makes it extra special to find a gleaming white one like this.
It’s your grandfather’s mid-80′s Cadillac, but not the way he intended it…..
1958 was a bad year for the auto industry. The post-war economic party lead to a global hangover as raw material purchases drastically declined. The auto industry swan dived by 31%, leaving far less demand for gorgeous land yachts like this ’58 Cadillac coupe. Thankfully many of those cars are still around today, reminding us [...]
Despite the stereoptypes of VW “hippie vans” being painted in rainbows and peace signs, most survivors are clean, well-restored machines like the one above. We caught up with this van at a Pony Corral cruise night earlier this summer.
