The Ford Del Rio can be perceived as a boring old car or a cool classic, depending on the onlooker's taste. However, this particular 1957 Ford Del Rio Wagon is the ultimate sleeper wagon. It looks rusty, slow, and tired from the outside while housing shiny new underpinnings. This Del Rio has been exceptionally rebuilt with new and upgraded components. It boasts a new powertrain, revamped interior, and a lot more. With only 1000 reported miles on the odometer, this restomod wagon is best for someone seeking a truly unique automotive creation.
This 1957 Ford Del Rio Wagon has gone through an extensive makeover. The front and rear ends are new, whereas the interior is fully redone. On the outside, it flaunts a convincing rusty finish. On the other hand, the interior is neat and gloriously impressive. The huge wagon has two rows of new bench seats that can accommodate around six people comfortably. Behind the second row, there is ample space for storage, including a pop-up storage area under the trunk floor. The front cabin features a new steering wheel and several analog dials (also new) that emanate a feeling of old-school sportiness. All in all, the exterior and interior of this restomod are visually poles apart (in a good way).
Powering this 1957 Ford Del Rio Wagon is the top-spec 5.8-liter 351ci V8 Windsor motor, which has been bored to 382ci. This particular vehicle has received a host of upgrades. The motor has been enhanced with new pistons, T5 twin turbochargers, an aluminum intake, and Edelbrock aluminum headers. The driveline is new and at the rear end, you can find a 9-inch Posi 3.25-ratio differential. A blow-through carburetor, electric fuel pump, and 4-wheel disc brakes are also part of the build. An MSD 6-BTM Boost Timing Master box with a dash-mounted control knob lets you adjust the amount of boost from the turbo. The transmission is an upgraded C6 3-speed automatic with a B&M shift kit. Announcing the arrival of the upgraded powertrain is a new dual exhaust system. All these upgraded components have culminated in a phenomenally capable sleeper wagon that is both unique and desirable.

While many people restore their own Broncos, there are numerous companies that offer their own unique approach to updating and restoring these vehicles.

Ford engineers and designers completely restyled both the interior and exterior of the Mustang for the fourth generation. Enthusiasts who have owned them for years love them for how reliable and easy to work on they are. So purchasing this 1995 Ford Mustang Restomod will definitely bring power and cheer into your life.

The station wagon obsession has a really peculiar fan base that we truly enjoy. It makes sense—you can fit your family and dog inside and still have the same level of performance as a regular car. People who are fascinated by station wagons even convert popular vehicles into them. The Ford Country Squire is not a conversion but a factory model that saw eight generations from 1950 through the 1991 model years. We bring you an example from the fifth generation of this classic that users like to describe as an absolute tank. This 1962 Ford Country Squire is a reliable oldie, which is restomoded and carries new and upgraded components.
The second-generation Chevrolet Corvette (C2) is where the legendary Corvette inherited its sharp lines and looks that are still used to this day. This new design over the first-generation Corvette did not only present itself with a spectacular view but also newfound handling prowess. The new lighter body meant this convertible found more acceleration than its predecessor, even though the power remained the same and the new suspension significantly improved handling. All the 1963 cars came out with 372 ci engines, making 250 horsepower as standard, with optional variants like this particular restored model we have for you today, which can produce a whopping 340 horsepower. All this excitement for the second-generation Corvette resulted in an increase of 50% in units built compared to the then-record-setting 1962 version. This made the C2 an automotive icon of the past and present. We’re told that this 1963 convertible American beauty, for sale in Rosamond, California, has only done less than 1000 miles on the odometer after restoration. The current owner also reports that the numbers are matching for the motor and transmission, however documentation cannot be provided.
The Chevrolet Impala has played the role of the Bowtie’s flagship full-size car for years. Produced over ten generations, the Impala was first introduced in 1957. Named after the eponymous African antelope, the first generation was strictly a two-door affair. Buyers could choose a coupe or convertible. If you’d like to own a classic Impala but with a bit more pep up and go, this 1958 Chevrolet Impala is a worthy contender. The car comes with an upgraded engine, but remains otherwise stock as far as possible. That makes it a lovely classic car to own and drive, but something to surprise other classics with when the mood strikes.
Chevy’s El Camino is iconically known for its coupe utility body style. Basically, the coupe utility combines the ride comfort and handling of a car’s monocoque construction with the versatility of a pickup truck. Adapted from a Chevy two-door station wagon, the El Camino appeared in 1959, to compete with Ford’s Ranchero. Five generations of El Camino were made until 1987 when the nameplate was quietly retired. If you’ve always been intrigued by this pastiche of coupe and pickup truck, consider picking up this 1980 Chevrolet El Camino as your next classic. This 53,500-mile example comes to you with all maintenance reportedly up to date, so it’s basically a buy-and-drive classic.
