Purple Power: V8-Swapped 1986 Chevrolet S10
First generation S10s have a delightfully boxy, utilitarian style that is timeless. These trucks are beloved by their owners. Of course, it helps that they lend themselves to V8 conversions.
That's exactly what happened to the S10 you see here. Finding these trucks in clean, rust free condition is difficult. These were inexpensive work trucks, so must were used up and thrown away. The V8 under the hood is just a bonus, as far as we're concerned.
Beautiful Sunburn: 1969 Plymouth Barracuda
The third generation Plymouth Barracuda, which ran from 1970 to 1975, gets quite a lot of respect in muscle car and collector car circles. In our opinion, the first and second generation cars deserve more attention than they get.
This tastefully modified 1969 Barracuda is a great example of the second generation. Like the first generation (1964-1966), the second generation (1967-1969) shared a lot of its underpinnings with the Valiant.
