"Unique: This 104-year-old Silver Ghost Rolls Royce has sold for a world-record price of
almost 5 million after a furious bidding war at Bonhams..."

Straight Outta Winterport: '69 Camaro

Whenever I catch a '69 Camaro of course I have to start singing Racin' in the Street

1980 Toyota Cressida wagon


Caught the wagon in Ellsworth Maine. The owner inherited it from a relative in California. It's entirely original, low-mileage and pretty close to showroom condition. Vintage vinyl and velour. A nimble little Eighties survivor. What is a "cressida" anyway? Or a "tercel"? Or for that matter, a "prius" or a "corolla"?
