Chevy II, Maine.

 
The Chevy II was GM's response to Ford's Falcon. "Compacts" of the early 1960s. Nova, the topmost trim level Chevy II, soon took over the brand and Chevy II was ditched. Here 's a very clean and concise Chevy II we caught in California a while back--perhaps it came out of the factory with the same paint as today's car, which we saw in Orland, Maine.

c. 1952 Plymouth DeLuxe, etc.

 

From Alex Emond: "The Plymouth Special DeLuxe is sitting outside a garage in Lafleche, Saskatchewan, along with a c.1950 Chevy. An autobody experience...yet another funky Plymouth, up for grabs. I didn't talk to anyone about the price, but it can't be much. The interior is shot; the glass is toast, but I have seen vehicles starting like this and ending up amazing . All you need is hundreds of hours, thousands of dollars, tools, and...skills. I am lacking at least three of those assets. Still , I love these early 50's cars, the pre- fin zone."

Alex caught another Plymouth DeLuxe a few years back.  And we remember the 1950 Chevy  aka Suite 50 in Banff.

1979 Jeep Cherokee

 

Markus Anstadt caught the Cherokee in Denver. It's always been in one family. Here's a 1977 Cherokee that was up on BaT a while ago. And then there was James McGurk's road trip in a Cherokee...

1965 Chrysler 300L

 

From Alex Emond: "Sitting in front of a house in Fife Lake, Saskatchewan. A tiny place down close to the Montana border. Aggressive lines ... I like the way the rear fender skirts carry that straight line through. Big V8. Two door.  This car has something to say, like "CULATER!"   

We posted another 1965 Chrysler 300 from Denver a while back. And here's a '66 Chry;er 300.
