Nice Price Or Crack Pipe: 1965 Plymouth Sport Fury For $39,900?
Nice Price Or Crack Pipe: 1965 Plymouth Sport Fury For $39,900?-October 2024

The vast majority of you feel that $5,300.83 is , but what happens when you consider a super-rare, numbers-matching Detroit classic… for more than seven times as much?

That's what we've got here; it's a car that only the most maniacally anti-Detroit gearhead wouldn't love. It's a one-of-three-made, build-sheet-included, 426 Wedge-powered 1965 Plymouth Sport Fury. Now, the car show judges won't like that $10,000 paint job (to please them, you need to have period-correct factory orange peel, complete with embedded Old Gold ashes that fell off the gasper clenched in the jaws of the gnarled old Chrysler paint-shop dude who shot the original paint back in 1964), but everyone else will think it looks mighty sharp. The interior is original except for the carpeting, the engine and transmission have been rebuilt, and the whole package looks to be just beautiful. You'd definitely stand out from all those dime-a-dozen Mopar B-Body guys with this big Plymouth! Thing is, $39,900 is a helluva lot of money, especially now that everyone is preparing for the Total Collapse-O-Society™, researching good recipes for pigeon stew and rat tapenade and so on. What do you think?

I've Got $45,000 To Blow On a Two-Door Money-Pit GT Car! What Should I Buy?
Griff is all about that #Jaloplyfe and has a decent chunk of change to blow on something with two doors, solid performance, and highway comfort. Reliability is a bit lower on the list. He is torn between offerings from Germany, Italy, or Britain. What car should he buy? (Welcome...

At $9,900, Is This 1994 Volvo 940 Turbo Wagon a Sweet Swede?
Boxing Day may be over two months away, but that doesn’t mean we can’t appreciate the boxy efficiency of today’s Volvo. Let’s see if we can also appreciate what buying it should cost. I think we all tend to get tired of the old same-‘ol, same-‘ol that can creep...
