1967 Mustang High Country Special Convertible

Well, you don’t see one of these every day! Yes, yes… I know that’s a bad cliche, but this is one of those rare instances where it’s very true.

The High Country Special was one of the earliest factory limited edition Mustangs. Ford went pretty crazy in 1967 & 1968 with California Specials, Color of the Month Mustangs, Gold Nugget Specials, Lone Star Limited, Ski Country Specials and so on. Read the rest of this entry »

1969 Pontiac Firebird

Not a whole lot of information to go by on this Firebird. According to the owner it’s a factory Orange car with a white interior. But Orange wasn’t a factory color, so it looks like Matador Red (paint code 52) or maybe Burgundy (code 67) but it’s hard to tell with so many years of the sun beating down on it. The motor is gone, but it still has the factory 3 speed transmission. You just have to pull it out of the trunk!

From the photos it seems the owner has a few more decent classic cars rusting away in his collection. It’s really a shame when vintage and muscle cars like this just get abandoned out in a field and the owner won’t part with them. They always say they’re going to restore them, but year after year there they still sit.

1970 Dodge Challenger

Unfortunately this Challenger may be headed to the great Mopar showroom in the sky. It’s really only good for a parts car at this point. So much has been chopped off and hacked away that it’s barely holding itself together. Leaving it out in the snow to rust certainly isn’t helping matters.

1968 Fastback – Minor Rust

Only one slight problem with this 1968 Mustang fastback… It seems to be RUSTED IN HALF! The owner says it spent it’s life in Northern Michigan and that “this happens more than you would think.” Yikes! Read the rest of this entry »
