Malaise Four Hundo: 1977 Dodge Aspen Wagon

When you think about F-body cars, Chrysler compacts from the late 70's likely don't come to mind first. The Dodge Aspen and its twin Chrysler Volare' were made from 1976-1980 and were successors to the very popular Dart/Duster/Valiant triplets. The Aspen sedan and wagon rode on a longer wheel base than the coupes. Small block 318 and 360 V8's were factory options, but today's grocery getter is powered by a big block 400. Find this 1977 Dodge Aspen wagon for sale in Roxbury, CT for $2,600 via craigslist. Monday, November 14, 2016
Four Hundred and Twenty Nine Cubes: 1971 Ford Thunderbird

It is hard to remember, but at one point in time the Ford Thunderbird was a legitimate competitor to the Chevrolet Corvette. A dozen years later and the T-Bird had pulled an Elvis and got fattened up with fried peanut butter and banana sandwiches before being sent to an early grave, while the Vette continues on.

Big Block Brawler: 1972 Pontiac LeMans

If you are going to drive a crusty old car, it might as well be something American with a huge gas-guzzling V8 mounted up front. You might not get voted debutante of the party at the next concours d'Eggsalad, but you should enjoy the miles of black stripes laid on top of tarmac.

Boaty McBoatface: 1968 Ford Galaxie XL

Big blocks stuck inside of small cars are the stuff of automotive legend. We can't forget, however, that these same engines could be found in slightly porkier models, as well. And while the lightweight coupes and ponies we call muscle cars were fast, most can be bested by your neighbor's Maxima in every performance measure. Why not save yourself a ton of money and get the same monster engine in something a little bigger? Find this 1968 Ford Galaxie XL for $12,000 via craigslist.Thursday, May 5, 2016
White Lightning: 1963 Chrysler 300 Pacesetter

Looking through muscle car ads used to be a lot more fun. It has gotten to be a little depressing over the past 15 years, though. Anything with 2 doors and a big block seems to have turned to gold and sailed out of the price range of your average Joe. There are still a few bargains to be had, however. Find this 1963 Chrysler 300 for sale in Buffalo, MN for $21,900 via craigslist.

15k: Big Block Party: 1967 Ford Fairlane 390GT
The Ford Fairlane was an intermediate sized coupe from Detroit, and in big-block form these beasties can be quite a deal when compared to a Mustang or other pony car from the sixties. The fifth generation with its stacked headlights is one of the best looking of the breed and was made only from 1966 to 1967. Find this 1967 Ford Fairlane 390GT for sale in Pueblo, CO currently bidding on ebay for $14,700.Tuesday, July 30, 2013
5k: Midlife Crisis: 1987 Chevrolet Trolley Car
You are a slightly pudgy 40 year old with a wife and 2 kids. You've been working hard at your 8am-6pm career as a software tester and have recently been promoted to Junior Manager. The 15 year old Nissan Altima you've been driving since before your 2nd kid was born is looking a bit sorry but you've managed to save a few dollars for a weekend car. A sports car that would get you noticed sounds great, but they are impractical and you've always needed an RV for family trips...what if you could find something that would fit your extroverted needs and haul the family up to see aunt Bridget during August?

5k: Long Name, Long SUV: 1974 Chevrolet Suburban Cheyenne Super 20 Trailering Special
In the holiday spirit, Daily Turismo would now like to suggest that you go out and buy a classic truck or SUV immediately...in order to haul all of the crap your wife (or other domestic partner) just bought over to the in-law's house for distribution to various ingrate relatives. There's the great aunt with dementia and her cigar-smoking wisecracking curmudgeon husband, the redneck cousin who shows up in his RV with wife, kids and Rottweiler, the douchebag stylish running-suit-wearing couple next door....wait, that was National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation...it's getting hard to distinguish reality from fiction in our eggnog fueled holiday haze. Regardless, check out this super clean and very reasonably priced family truckster, the interminably named and oh-so '70s Chevrolet Suburban Cheyenne Super 20 Trailering Special! Find it here on ebay in St. Louis, MO with zero bids so far and a reasonable $5k Buy it Now price.
