Patrick Foster highlights a Mazda salesman's RX-4

It was 1978, and I was a young, reckless car salesman at Enterprise Olds/Volvo City West/Milford Mazda on Route 1 in Milford, Conn. I had a reputation for liking unusual cars; for my first demonstrator car, I had chosen a new 1978 Oldsmobile Cutlass fastback — you know, those downsized, aero-looking things that sold like steaming-hot stew on a blazing summer’s day. When that car was finally sold, I decided to ask for one of the higher-priced models from our brand-new Mazda franchise, choosing a plush RX-4 four-door sedan.

Bob Tomaine get 'Blissful' with a 1959 Bliss Surrey

1959 Bliss Surrey has strong ‘curved-dash Olds’ vibes. The Bliss Surrey looks enough like the curved-dash Olds that inspired it to fool a casual observer into thinking it really is more than 120 years old. It even appears to have brass headlamps from the early 1900s... except for the sealed beams.

Al Rogers talks with the owner of a gorgeous 1968 Ford F-250 Ranger Camper Special

In 1968, outdoor recreation saw significant growth across North America. Camping and weekend trips became increasingly popular pastimes, yet many individuals sought accommodations more substantial than a tent or sleeping bag for camping under the stars. For these travelers, the recreation industry responded with a surge in the production of camper trailers, motorhomes and slide-in campers designed for pickup truck beds.

Bob Tomaine visits a local International

Bob Thompson was not actually looking for an International pickup when it literally found him through a friend of a friend.

“My neighbor said, ‘Hey, I want you to meet Scott,’” Thompson recalled. “He’s the grandson of the original owner … my friend went to school with Scott and he told him, ‘Bob can probably help you with it.’”

Leroy Drittler takes a trip to the yard

As we were slowly driving down a narrow county road in Pontotoc County, Okla., looking for D&H Classics, we crested over a slight rise and couldn’t help but smile as approximately 1,000 old cars and trucks came into view. D&H Classics has a variety of vehicles, including some ready for the road.
