Noticed this pristine Z28 on a book cover, looks like a 1980 model. Those cars weren't fast, but they looked like they were, lol.:icon_smil Seems like all the detailing they did with colors and graphics has been lost with modern cars. 1980 Z28??

There were rotary engines and Betamax players, what else can you think of, and will electric cars be next, lol? Mazda RX4 Betamax tape Betamax card

Can anyone here please remove the word auction from this picture? My version of Photoshop lacks the "content aware" function, and the online trial version is too new for my computer's operating system. Thanks.

OMG, Mustang II on two book covers! Jokes aside, I always thought the white, red stripes Cobra IIs looked sharp. Add a 220 hp 302 and I'm interested.

For anyone that enjoyed that M5 and the pre Chris Bangle cars, this is a nice coffee table book. Those 3 to 5 liter V8s of the 1990s were sweet revving, as long as the Nikasil bore coating didn't peel off!:hugegrin: Classic 5 series - No Bangle

For those into Corvettes, this might be of interest. I came across these UK magazine test times. I think they show what a showroom car can do. Since they were export cars, it's unlikely they were enhanced for magazine testing . '82 TBI 350 1968 L68 427 4 speed 0-60 6.1 seconds top speed...

If you check out the free "Look Inside" feature Amazon.com offers, you will see girl band Chicanery and model Elizabeth posing with a '68 Firebird 400. Burt Reynolds is on p112.:icon_cool...

Would you say the 7th gen T-Bird, was perhaps the biggest muscle car of all time? 1972-76 Thunderbird Just always had this thought when seeing Jack Cassidy chase Clint Eastwood in The Eiger Sanction (1975).:naughty:

I am writing a Mopar book, if anyone has a nice clean car (stock or modified Dart, Demon, Duster, Barracuda etc) and would like to send in high res images for the book, then please message me and I will give my email. Thanks.

Nice article with the late George Barris. I have always liked the car (the wide body and Mohawk bias belted rubber), but some might not, lol. Discuss!! :icon_razz Feverish Urban Cowboy Bird!

On the one hand it's a long engine, not suited to front drive, transverse cars. On the other for improved emissions and economy turbo modular inline sixes are replacing V8s in some cars (BMW), and these engines can be made into inline 4s and 3s!. So will the inline six stay in trucks, or make a...

Never seen one, apart from a compilation book, have Ranchero in the title. Neat!:icon_cool Ford Fairlane, Torino & Ranchero Book

The Nova seems more current in thinking. Recent cars have smaller turbo engines for emissions and economy, plus better handling with less weight in the nose. The old school way was more displacement and don't worry about the understeer!:D Would anyone put a turbo 4 into a classic musclecar?;)...

In one interview Burt said when car movies were at their height, they did everything but have a car chase through the Vatican, lol! He certainly starred in a few classics.:icon_bigg Movie trailer Pontiac Firebird

Looking at this comparison report with the BMW 325e and the Mercedes 190E, the little Caddy comes out not too bad. Even 30 years ago the German car buyer would never have considered a Caddy, regardless of how good it was. Originally conceived as a BMW 320i & Audi 4000 import fighter, on basic...
