What do you get when you imbue an Eighties car with Twenties (no not Twenty Twenties, but Nineteen Twenties) styling? That’s precisely what Excalibur aimed to do. This Milwaukee-based outfit was the work of Clifford Brooks Stevens, who initially designed the cars for Studebaker. Stevens subsequently formed a company to create them by himself. Sadly, the project wasn’t as successful as all involved would have expected, and after several failures, Excalibur folded in 1990. Of course, that hasn’t stopped others from creating replicas, such as this 1989 Excalibur Series V Replica. Built on a 1989 Mercury Grand Marquis GS chassis, this 17,688-mile automobile awaits its new owner in Williston, Vermont. It is often said that imitation is the best form of flattery, so the fact that someone built a replica of the Excalibur means that the car is worth checking out. If you’re the kind of person who lusts after the quirky and isn’t afraid to push the boundaries of what many consider a ‘classic’ or ‘modern classic’, why not buy this car and become its custodian?
The white paint job only serves as a facilitator for conveying the iconic looks of the Excalibur, as witnessed on this 1989 Excalibur Series V Replica. The car’s overall design is quintessentially 1920s, from the podded headlamps and external horns, to the running boards and simulated externally-mounted spare wheels. As you gaze upon the vehicle’s side profile, its distinctively more modern underpinnings become somewhat apparent, the most notable of which is its four-door body. But as you move towards the rear, it once again takes on a Twenties persona. The car rolls on whitewall tires and spoked wheels with real spokes, we’re told. The interior of this 1989 Excalibur Series V Replica is distinctively Eighties Mercury. You’ve got red upholstery, power windows, power front seats, air conditioning, a relatively modern looking dashboard and gauges, a radio, and even a CD player from Sony. You’ve also got plenty of chrome bits and wood trim, adding that signature Eighties luxury touch.
The engine that moves this 1989 Excalibur Series V Replica is a 5.0L naturally aspirated V8, paired with an automatic transmission for an easy-driving experience. The car also has front disc and rear drum brakes for ample stopping power. So take an easy cruise down the street, and turn heads at every corner with this car.

The story of Excalibur is interesting. Initially styled by Brooks Stevens for Studebaker, Stevens subsequently formed a company to produce the cars himself. Built in Wisconsin, it’s estimated that over 3,500 examples of this neo-classic automobile were made until 1990, even though the company folded in 1986 and was subsequently revived for a short time thereafter. Excalibur’s unique selling point was to offer classic 1920s and 1930s styling paired with modern mechanicals and creature comforts at the time. Today, we’ve got one of these curious cars for sale, a 1975 Excalibur Series III Phaeton from Edgerton, Wisconsin, with 56,178 miles on the clock. Let us tell you more about this car and why you should snap it up if you’ve got an eye for, and a desire to own unconventional pieces of American automotive history.
The 1963 Cadillac Coupe DeVille stands as a defining symbol of American luxury during the early 1960s, an era where size, presence, and comfort reigned supreme. With its long, flowing body lines and unmistakable Cadillac styling, this coupe delivers the kind of road presence that modern vehicles simply cannot replicate. This particular example, showing under 16,000 miles, has been thoughtfully updated to blend classic charm with modern usability. Enhancements such as upgraded air conditioning, audio, and electrical systems make it far more enjoyable to drive today, while still preserving the essence of what made Cadillac the pinnacle of luxury in its time.
The 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible is one of the most celebrated icons of the American pony car era, offering a perfect blend of style, performance, and open-top enjoyment. As one of the models that helped define Ford’s early success with the Mustang, the 1966 model year continued to refine the formula with subtle styling updates and strong engine options like the 289 V8. This particular example, showing 41,969 miles, presents in a classic and highly desirable red-on-red configuration, further enhanced by the sought-after Pony Interior trim. With its combination of vintage appeal and tasteful upgrades, this Mustang delivers an authentic yet enjoyable classic driving experience.
One of Chevy’s main pillars of the Sixties and Seventies, the Chevelle dominated the midsize segment with ease. It was one of the Bowtie’s most successful models during its 1963 to 1977 production run, and came in many body forms. Of course, petrolheads flocked towards the SS or Super Sport variant which brought many cosmetic as well as performance upgrades to the car. Now, we’ve got a finely restored 1967 Chevrolet Chevelle SS for grabs in Visalia, California. Sporting a black exterior and a black interior, this machine rocks a fearsome 427ci V8 under the hood, a set of black Ridler alloy wheels, and more. Also included in the sale is a Vintage Air heating and air conditioning system that’s currently not installed.
