AMC Classic Cars San Antonio TX

The success of the AMX prompted AMC to look a little deeper into where it might compete the following year. The company had Hurst Industries put together a package that could run with the big dogs in Super Stock drag racing. Like the Chrysler Hemi A-bodies Hurst had built the year before, these AMXs came with disclaimers stating they were not for highway or passenger-car use.

Buick Classic Cars San Antonio TX

Critics like to point to the 1958 Buick as an example of domestic car excess in the 1950s. Indeed, it was a product dripping in excess, especially when it came to bright exterior trim. Its dated, heavy styling arrived just in time for a recession and fallout in new car sales. Read more.

Chevrolet Classic Cars San Antonio TX

While the 1957 Chevrolets today are considered all-time classics, back in 1957, they were on the third year of a styling cycle and had to compete with all-new 1957 Fords and Plymouths. Ford scored a rare victory in model-year sales, and something had to be done.

Chrysler Classic Cars San Antonio TX

It's not easy to come up with a list of 1980s cars that most enthusiasts would consider "collectible," but the 1982 Chrysler LeBaron convertible probably belongs in the conversation. It may never go down alongside the '32 Fords, '57 Chevys and Hemi Mopars on any all-time collector rankings, but the '82 LeBaron ragtop had plenty going for it. Read more.

Duesenberg Classic Cars San Antonio TX

One only need look at the specifications of a Model J to appreciate what was accomplished. The Model J used a straight-eight powerplant of Fred Duesenber's design.

Nash/Hudson/American Motors Classic Cars San Antonio TX

Metropolitans were produced from 1954-62 and didn’t change much in the looks department during that time. They were started as a joint venture between Austin, which provided the engine and drive train, Pinin Farina, which did the design work, and Nash/Hudson/American Motors, which marketed the car in the United States under various banners.

Oldsmobile Classic Cars San Antonio TX

The division’s 1949 88 series combined the new 303-cid, 135-hp overhead-valve, oversquare V-8 with the smaller of its two bodies, but “smaller” didn’t quite have the meaning it would acquire as true muscle cars began to appear. The difference was a 5.5-inch-shorter wheelbase, and in the club coupe, for example, 285 lb. less weight, but it wasn’t long before increasing style and luxury came into the mix.

Pontiac Classic Cars San Antonio TX

In 1959, Pontiac capitalized on the excitement of the model name by making a Bonneville series. These cars were big and rich, but weren't as unique as the first two Bonnevilles. Pontiac used the original concept to create the Ventura, a small car with the fancy Bonneville-type interior. Read more.
