Summer may be gone but the Car Show Season is stuck at full throttle. The Charlotte Autofair, one of our favorite shows, is coming up this weekend. If you're not there, you're nowhere. This show will blow you away. See our Car Show Calendar or events for more great shows in your area.
Several times during the past few months we informed our newsletter readers when the Cars On Line website set new records for pageviews in one day. Well it happened again this Labor Day, Monday, September 7. The new one-day record number of pageviews on the Cars On Line website was 802,054, breaking the 800,000 mark for the first time. Not too surprisingly, we have been getting SOLD notifications on some very high profile cars since Monday. You'll note that a 1951 Mercury Lead Sled from Clarkston, Michigan was SOLD just two days after being listed. Buyers are looking and cars are selling. That is like music to our ears.
FERRARI ITALIA AT FRANKFURT
Like the Hope Diamond under glass, Ferrari will preview its 2010 458 Italia supercar at the 63rd International Motor Show in Frankfurt, Germany Sept. 15-27, 2009. The 458 Italia will reportedly eclipse the 200 mph mark with a 7th gear added. Beneath the hood sits a4.5-liter V8 engine with direct fuel injection and low-friction engine components improving fuel efficiency.
Manufacturing methods were borrowed from the aerospace industry with more magnesium and other exotic alloys used in the construction. A pair of small black wings in the front valance flex when the car gains speed, and reform improving the aerodynamics of the car. Here is a link to the Ferrari promo video for the 458 Italia.
The Frankfurt Motor Show, as it's commonly known, is one of the largest and most important international auto shows in Europe. Companies like Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Porsche typically use the Frankfurt Motor Show as their launching pad for new models. The Frankfurt Motor Show is organized by the Association of the German Automotive Industry. Next week we'll preview for you some of the concept cars scheduled to appear.
THIS WEEK's TOP VIDEOS
One of the best videos we've seen came in from St. Louis Park, Minnesota. The advertiser does a nice job with the voice-over as he gives you a tour of his sharplooking Cardinal red 1966 Pontiac GTO 2-Dr Hardtop. He comments on the car as he does a walk-around with the camera. He says it is a #s matching 389 Tri Power with a 4-speed. As he gives you a tour of the car and starts it up for you to hear, he indicates that it comes with an original build sheet as well as PHS documents. Click here to see the video.

WHEELS IN THE PARTS SECTION
According to Jack Genova owner of Fastlane Speed & Rod Shop in Mission, Kansas, American Racing wheels are the most popular brand sold today. And his top sellingwheel set is the Torque Thrust II (shown right) very popular among street rodders and muscle car enthusiasts alike. One of the reasons it is so popular is that it is affordable.
Fastlane sells more custom hot rod wheels than any other wheel shop in the Midwest, according to the people at Wheel Pros. "Putting new wheels on a car is the least expensive way of changing the look of your car," Genova says. He said that this year while some parts of his business suffered from the current economy his wheel business is booming. "People who normally would maybe buy a fresh ride for the summer car show season this year decided to buy a new set of wheels instead." You'll find some of the offerings from Fastlane in the Cars On Line Parts Section online. Our Wheels & Tires Page in the Parts Section is brand new. It is a prime time spot to show off your wheels for sale or buy a set of wheels to give your car a fresh look. We think this is gonna be HOT!

DEAL OF THE DAY
It is a sign of the times. Prices continue to drop on some very nice collector cars. Newsletter readers know that we feature the best ones here in the DEAL of the DAY preview. In this DEAL of the DAY section of our newsletter we give readers first chance at the best deals among the fresh ads on our website. Then during the coming week you'll see these cars featured on the home page of our website in the DEAL of the DAY graphic that looks like a "rear view mirror."Many Mustang collectors from the muscle car era will recognize this 1970 Mustang Grande, a luxury version of the pony car with vinyl roof, Deluxe Decor Group interior and special wire wheels and emenities. They were made from 1969 through
1973 but 1970 was the lowest production year for Grande models. Ford only made 13,581 that year (compared to 40,970 Mach 1's made in '70.) This one shown here from Paradise, California, is said to be all original. The owner says it has the 351 Cleveland engine and the color is gold with a beige vinyl top which he says is in good condition. He says it needs some cosmetic work but that there is no rust. It will be our DEAL of the DAY on Saturday, because the asking price is just $8,000.
Hurry! Don't wait around or you will lose out on this 1970 Camaro RS which was
just brought back from California by a Wisconsin collector. He describes it as a nice, rust free California car with a healthy small block motor and an automatic transmission. He says the red paint is new, and that it comes with a cowl hood and nice black interior. The 3" Flowmaster exhaust will get your heart started. He says it is a great running and driving car. It will be our DEAL of the DAY on Sunday, because the asking price is just $14,900.
A basic street rod is considered a starter car, one that needs better equipment, can be taken to a higher level. Starter cars are also cheaper to buy on the collector car market. Well here is a 1937 Chevy Coupe from
Manchester, Tennessee that is priced like a starter car but is already much more than a starter car. First of all it is a rumble seat coupe, of which only 800 were produced by Chevrolet. Then it is said to be an "all steel" body with glass fenders, adding to the value. The seller says it has a 327 small block Chevy engine, 350 automatic transmission, Edelbrock carburetor and manifold, tuck n' roll interior, bucket seats, tilt steering, floor console shift and a Nova front clip with disc brakes and power steering. It will be our DEAL of the DAY next week ... this is a lotta' car for the money ... asking just $22,000.
Don't forget! Have these cars inspected before you buy. One man's great opportunity is another man's nightmare. You have to know if the car is right for you. See the Cars On Line Inspection Service at http://www.cars-on-line.com/insp-1stpg.html
Something you don't often see in the DEAL of the DAY feature is a numbers matching car. But that's exactly how this Kenosha, Wisconsin seller describes his 1973 Corvette with T-tops. He
says it has a numbers matching engine and transmission. He further describes it as a low mileage and original survivor car that he says is currently a "driver" class car. He says it has an all original and clean leather interior (see photos), tilt-telescopic steering wheel (a big feature in those days) and factory air conditioning, although he says the air needs work. He says the SS brakes have been redone as well as the rear half shafts and leaf spring. It will be our DEAL of the DAY next week with an asking price of $12,000.
This 1994 Buick Roadmaster Lowrider Station Wagon looks so good pancaked to the ground ... it is a massive lowrider vehicle. The seller says it has Air Ride Technologies with 2 air tanks and 2 air pumps with all new fitting valves, air lines, and no
leaks. He says the body has been dropped 2 3/4" and sets all the way on the floor, then lifts up 7" and drives excellent. The rear suspension is a 5-link while the front has tubular control arms, both upper and lower. He says he has parts for the interior, like Buck seats, but the interior needs to be finished. In the ad copy it says that the engine is an LT1 350 with GM Hot Cam 7 kit, Street & Performance throttle body, stainless steel headers with Flowmaster mufflers. The tranny is said to have a mild shift kit. You won't believe the price. It will be our DEAL of the DAY next week because this is a lot of car for the money ... only asking $7,500.
Don't forget! Have these cars inspected before you buy. One man's great opportunity is another man's nightmare. You have to know if the car is right for you. See the Cars On Line Inspection Service at http://www.cars-on-line.com/insp-1stpg.html
Any one who is a NASCAR racing fan might be interested to add this car to their collection ... especially at this price. A collector from Lees Summit, Missouri has listed an amazing deal on a 1995 Chevy Monte Carlo NASCAR Pace Car which
was actually used as a Festival Car at the 1995 Brickyard 400 NASCAR Championship race in Speedway, Indiana. This car is No. 337 out of 400 produced and the seller says it has only 16k actual miles. Amazing! It has all the Pace Car accoutrements like embroidered logos on the headrests, logo floor mats (still in the wrapper), and it comes with the Z-34 HO 3.4 DOHC V6 engine. It comes with all original documentation saying that it was a Festival Car including track passes and credentials, plus show displays, etc. The seller describes this car as being "mint." This may be a once in a lifetime opportunity ... as our DEAL of the DAY next week the asking price is only $9,995.
With Pro Street cars so popular you would not expect to see one in the DEAL of the DAY, would you? Well here is a 1972
Chevy Nova Pro Street from Franklin, Indiana that will surprise you. The seller describes it as an SS tribute because it has the SS badging. But the heart of this car is a 355 small block Chevy turbocharged, with a 350 turbo transmission. He says there are less than 200 miles on the car since a photo documented rebuild was performed. According to the ad copy, over $19,000 was invested and buyers will get all receipts with the sale. He says the car is street legal and runs 7.76's in the 8th-mile at 94 mph on pump gas. This car will be our DEAL of the DAY. Where will you find a Pro Street of this quality for $18,500.
More cars could have qualified for this week's DEAL of the DAY feature than we have days to publish them. Often there are more cars than we can feature on our front page every week. Here is a list of cars that just missed the cut for the DEAL of the DAY feature. Remember, you saw them here first:
