I’m partial to E28's myself and that is M5/M6 territory.  In fact I could probably by 4 really nice 535's for that.

I recently bought a 1949 Plymouth for a fairly reasonable price. One of the main reasons was that it has a 3 on the tree. And according to the seller it got tons of interest. Until he told the interested party it had a manual 3 on the tree. These days not many people know how to drive a basic 5 speed manual. Even Read more

No dice from me. I’m betting this thing is hiding a lot of cheaply fixed damage. The black painted roof is very suspicious to me. I’m thinking that USED to be a vinyl top that has been stripped off and painted black. That makes me think there’s other stuff just waiting to bite. Read more

ND there is absolutely nothing desirable about this car, though my brother had a Mustang with the 289 and it seemed like a pretty good engine. Read more

I wish it were currently a “driver” but the work required seems reasonable. Nice Price. Perfect weekend car for the evening dinner (flummoxing the valets) or taking the grandkids for ice cream and a walk on the beach.  Read more

I had a friend who bought one of these after starting his own company and starting to make real money. It was great to listen to idling in the parking lot, but Read more

100% NP, would prefer the earlier 2-smoke engine though. If you're gonna vintage Saab go full balls wild! Read more

Rust never sleeps and this is a northern car.

A friend of mine had one back in the day, though. This was the era of indestructible drivetrains and it was pretty fun to throw around. I’d have to see it in person to see how cracky that price is.  Read more

$12K?! Twelve thousand dollars? Is this real?! Is it April Fool’s?! Read more

ND though I do like it.  A lot of Datsuns from this era didn’t come from the factory with AC and I had major problem with the dealer installed AC in my 201. Read more
