April 29, 201510 yr * Anyone else love looking at old newspaper classifieds…? Have a few more from 1970s Des Moines IA newspapers to feature in the coming weeks! http://www.oldcarsstronghearts.com/2015/04/27/memory-monday-15/ A favorite part (among many) of my Route 66 road trip, September 2009, was spotting murals & cars. This was a great combo … with a Baxter Springs MO mural & a 1987 El Camino appearing in the pic I took! http://www.oldcarsstronghearts.com/2015/04/28/tuesday-trip-15/ Speaking of road trips, a cousin & I are planning a day road trip this Saturday, 05/02/2015, down to Staunton IL (from Chicagoland); forecasted weather should be perfect…. Anyone want to meet? Cort www.oldcarsstronghearts.com 1979 & 1989 Caprice Classics | pigValve, paceMaker, cowValve "I knew what I was talking bout" __ Jimmy Wayne __ 'Do You Believe Me Now'

May 1, 201510 yr It's tough today to wrap one's mind around what just all of these vintage collectibles went for as straight-up used cars. Imagine 'hemming & hawing' over whether a '69 RR 4-spd was worth $1200 or not.
May 3, 201510 yr Author Ha ... had nearly that very conversation with my cousin while we were at Country Classic Cars yesterday, balthazar. Equally tough to comprehend ... the fact that those cars WERE someone's brand new daily driver at some point......
