It was 25 years in the making, but one man gets a second chance at living the dream in a '71 Chevelle SS.
Bruce Bolwerk found a pretty good formula for success:
— Find very cool car when you are young — Use cool car to get girl — Sell cool car to buy wedding ring (show devotion and willingness to sacrifice for your girl) — Do the husband/father gig for a couple decades — Get kids out the door and on their own — Go buy a car just like the one you sold — Live happily ever after
That pretty much sums up Bolwerk's full-circle journey to happiness with his hot 1971 Chevelle SS. The Winchester, Wis., resident was willing to sell off his most prized possession to decorate his girlfriend Deb's finger and get her to the church. More than 25 years later, she returned the favor and told him he could have another Chevelle SS.
Lincoln Motor Car Heritage Museum recently took delivery of a 1922 Lincoln type 118 limousine and a 1933 Lincoln KB LeBaron convertible roadster to bolster their display.

Looking for posh styling and comfort of an '80s Caddy? Look no further than this 1985 Commemorative Edition Cadillac Seville.
The Bustleback styling on Cadillacs of this era is probably an acquired taste. It definitely falls in the "Love it or Hate it" category.
But if you are into Caddys of that era, it's tough to beat this baby — a rare 1985 Commemorative Edition Seville. The two-tone leather interior is crazy. The plush carpeting and woodgrain all over the place is crazy. This is just a pretty crazy (and VERY plush) ride all the way around. The seller claims the car is in great shape and shows only 59,000-plus miles on the odometer.
