During the 25 years he edited @Vanity Fair, Graydon Carter relied on this 1951 Chevrolet woodie for weekend getaways with his kids in Connecticut.⠀

He first spotted the car for sale in front of a house in Litchfield County, Conn., and learned the owner wanted $10,000 for it. Having just co-founded Spy magazine, he couldn't afford the price tag but gave the owner his number just in case.⠀

"For the next year, I kicked myself because I wanted that car so badly," Carter says. "Then my phone rang." The owner had lowered the price to $5,000, so he bought it.⠀
