Draped in an alluring bronze paint, this 1940 Chrysler Saratoga turns heads wherever it goes. Its length, width, and exterior curves all give the impression of a comfortable luxury cruiser.

Chrysler and Saratoga insignia and logos grace the nose of the car. The side profile of the car reveals more chrome trim, including the line that runs the length of the car, side mirrors, door handles, and side steps. As you step into this 1940 Chrysler Saratoga, the tan interior fitted with cloth bench seats greets you.

Meanwhile, there's a fire extinguisher tucked behind the seats incase of emergencies.
In the place of the standard Chrysler straight eight engine is a 350ci V8 Chevrolet small-block engine. This powerhouse is mated to an automatic transmission and sends power to the rear wheels.

Chrysler’s famous 300 is a midsize luxury car that was made across two generations, between 2005 and 2023. The 300 aimed to capture some of that old-school muscle sedan goodness, albeit with modern styling, tech and comforts. Today, we have a first-generation 2006 Chrysler 300 SRT-8 for sale from Lansing, Michigan. This 63,888-mile car is actually more sophisticated than you might think, because it has some German DNA in it. In fact, the platform on which the first-generation Chrysler 300 sits upon is shared with, among other models, the Mercedes-Benz W211 E-Class. The car also features other Mercedes-Benz elements, such as the gearbox, some engines, and electronics. But this particular car’s engine is all-American, a stonking 6.1-liter V8. With two keys included in the sale, this rear-wheel drive beast is the perfect muscle car for those seeking an old-school driving experience, but not willing to give up too many modern amenities.

The Packard Motor Company is one of those great American auto names that you’ve likely never heard of. That’s because they came to be in 1899, but went out in 1956, when they merged with Studebaker. It’s likely your parents themselves may not have heard of the brand either, but your grandparents likely will. They will reminisce about how Packards were luxury cars at the time, owned and driven by the wealthy, and always statement-makers whenever they were seen driving along, or parked in the foyers of swish hotels. Today, you can find out how it feels to have a Packard by acquiring this Stanton-based 1949 Packard 8 Restomod. The car comes with a newer V8 under the hood and has gained an automatic transmission too. This makes it ideal for the generation who never learned to drive stick. We’re told that the frame is from a Cadillac de Ville, and that documentation is included with the sale of the car. One key is also provided.
Jaguar Cars of Britain is well known for making some fine sporting machines during its long history. Before we had examples such as the breathtaking E-Type, or XK-E in North America, machines like the XK120, XK140 and XK150 ruled the roost. These were fine sports cars meant to embody the spirit of driving, and targeted at those who desired the best blend of luxury and driving pleasure. Between 1954 and 1957, it was the turn of the XK140 which brought more interior space as well as upgraded mechanicals over the XK120 which it replaced. A total of 8,937 cars was made during this time, with just 1,959 fixed-head coupes produced in left-hand drive. That makes this 1956 Jaguar XK140 one of 1,959 units, a statistic that places it in greater rarity than some supercars! If you’d like to be its next custodian, this 3.4-liter machine awaits your kind consideration in New Albany, Ohio.
Packard is an American auto brand that you’ve likely never heard of, or if so, in passing. Your parents might know if it though, your grandparents definitely will. That’s because the Packard Motor Company of Detroit, Michigan made cars between 1899 and 1956. They are widely known as the purveyors of the modern steering wheel, air conditioning in cars, and one of the first production 12-cylinder engines! Sad, then, that such an iconic brand died a quiet death in the Fifties, merging with Studebaker by 1953 and quietly disappearing thereafter. One of their last models was the 200, and we have an example for sale today. This 1951 Packard 200 comes from Marietta, Georgia, and has done just 19,000 miles as per what we’ve been told. It’s a fine classic car for those who seek an unusual choice rather than going with the usual suspects from the major brands.
