Recent Classifieds at The MuscleCar Place! The Dodge Charger remains one of the most popular muscle cars of all
time, and this 1970 model explains why: big power, great looks, and a
handsome interior that's big enough for five adults to cruise in
comfort. Restored from a base Charger with a wheezing 2-barrel 318 under
the hood, it now packs 440 cubic inches of thunder and a gorgeous
bright yellow paint job that stands out in a crowd. With similar cars
selling for $50,000 or more, this one represents something of a bargain.
If anything, the bright yellow paint emphasizes the long, lean lines of the Charger, and the subtle curve that flares up behind the door. Combined with those squared-off fenders and sharp flying buttresses, it's a car that will never, ever go out of style. The body panels on this car are original, with only the floors and trunk pan being replaced during the restoration, and it fits together just like the factory did it 41 years ago. However, the paint is worlds better than any factory in 1970 could ever manage, using two-stage urethane to create a surface that's as smooth as a mirror and absolutely no ripples or waves. A black bumblebee stripe was added out back, which is specified on the fender tag. Either way, it looks ideal and cars without the stripe always seem to look unfinished. Both bumpers, including the unique front bumper that surrounds the grille and headlights, have been re-chromed, and all the remaining trim has been professionally buffed. And yes, before you ask, the headlights work perfectly ... Read More 1968 Oldsmobile 442 Convertible

1958 Ford Fairlane
Since its recent frame off restoration, this 1958 Ford Fairlane Club
Victoria 2-door hardtop has covered less than 10,000 miles. The power
comes from a modern 400cid V-8 - 2-bbl engine and a correct 2-speed
Fordamatic transmission and a 3.10:1 gear set. Having spent all of its
life in the south and coming off the Barrett/Jackson auction block in
2005 this is one Fairlane to consider. Some of the options include
power brakes, fender skirts, dual front fender mounted outdoor rearview
mirrors, and air conditioning with a modern air compressor, AM/FM radio
with a cassette player, rear defogger, fashion wheel covers and a rare
Country Club Trim Stripe Edition which was only produced two months in
early 1958 in Wixom Michigan. ... Read More
