Car of the Week: Dick Teague’s AM 197X
Richard A. “Dick” Teague studied at Art Center School of Design in Pasadena, Calif., where the focus was on form and line, not decoration. He designed the 1954 Packard Panther Daytona. This open car combined Teague’s idea for clean forms with his preference for sporty two-passenger automobiles.
Car of the Week: 1982 Datsun 280ZX
Car of the Week: 1982 Datsun 280ZX
The 280ZX was undeniably a bit of a cad’s car. Picture a suave dude who always had his hairbrush at the ready and smelled of Jovan Musk aftershave. That is the man who would have driven a new “Z Car.”

Driving a 1934 Ford three-window coupe from an AACA Hershey flea market space to the show field would be less than remarkable if not for one detail. It’s been sitting in a barn since 1958 until they pulled it out on August 3 of (2019).

Car of the Week: 1936 Reo Speed Wagon
Ransom Eli Olds thought his single-cylinder “curved dash” Oldsmobile was the ideal car for the middle class. However, his associates wanted to build more substantial automobiles, and they held a majority of stock. So Olds left in January 1904, and by August 1904 he formed the Reo Motor Car Co.

Car of the Week: 1953 Chevrolet Bel Air
Sheldon Metzger clearly remembers the sound advice and solid promise that were part of the deal when he bought his 1953 Chevrolet Bel Air. “‘Take this to shows and you’ll have a good time,’” Metzger was told. “‘You won’t have a problem with this car’ and thank God, we haven’t so far.”

Car of the Week: 1950 Chevy 3100 pickup

Car of the Week: 1940 Ford Standard coupe
Car of the Week: 1940 Ford Standard coupe
Bob Lyons chuckles as he tries to explain what it was that first attracted him to the 1940 Fords. Sure, they looked great — especially the coupes — but for Lyons the cars appealed to more than just one of his five senses.

Car of the Week: 1970 Mercury Cougar Eliminator
Car of the Week: 1970 Mercury Cougar Eliminator
Running into a primo muscle car legend is rarely a Craigslist coincidence or a word-of-month barn find. It usually takes being in the know, especially back before people shopped for old iron on a screen hooked up to the world wide web.
Car of the Week: 1965 Rambler Marlin
Car of the Week: 1965 Rambler Marlin
