Dodge Dart Survivor
I came across this fantastic Dodge Dart survivor the other day. With no other modern cars in frame the rear shot looks almost period.
Never knew they existed: Dodge Power Wagon Top Hand
Factory special trucks from Dodge are nothing new with the famous Lil’ Red Express and somewhat lesser known Warlock and The Dudge. Hemmings Blog has highlighted this fantastic 1978 Dodge Power Wagon Top Hand truck.

Old car ads
I have a big stack of (mostly) Road and Track magazines from the 70s. They are fantastic with refreshingly honest reviews of the era’s cars. Technical specs are present and accounted for as well. There is a mid 70s review … Continue reading

Pontiac YellowBird
I recently came across a 1980 Pontiac YellowBird in Calgary. I seem to recall seeing a few Skybirds (the blue one – they couldn’t call it BlueBird due that name was in use by the bus company) when growing up and perhaps a few YellowBirds but none lately. There was also a red one called RedBird. I’d forgotten about them as I suspect most had. They are not performance packages so probably over shadowed by the Trans Ams but they are very visually distinctive. They are also interesting in that they where likely aimed at the female market with the feminine styling touches. Continue reading
