So Much Wiring! 1936 Ford Five-Window Coupe Project
Like almost anyone with gasoline in their veins, I’m a sucker for 1936 Ford Coupes; they’re my favorite from a decade that abounds with stylistic riches in the Ford line. While I prefer the three-window coupes, I would categorize… more»

Mostly Original 1972 Ford Gran Torino Sport SportsRoof
It’s a part of the human condition to makes lists. You might have your five favorite albums, favorite movies, and perhaps even your favorite Ford Torinos. For me, that last one isn’t really a list, but a single car—this… more»

Everything Works: 1964 Chevrolet C10 Stepside Shortbed
Are you a Fleetside or a Stepside person? I must admit that I find myself on the Fleetside side of the coin, if only for its front-to-rear styling continuity; however, if a truck as clean and stylish as this… more»

Dropped Square Body: 1977 Chevrolet Blazer
I feel that people look askance at the two-wheel-drive Chevy Blazer, and I’ve personally benefited from that. The first really nice daily driver that I bought on my own was a four-year-old, two-wheel-drive 2000 S10 Blazer. It only had… more»

Nice Daily Driver? 1965 Chrysler New Yorker
I always feel a pang of envy for those who live in a climate where a 1965 Chrysler New Yorker (or something similar) is a viable daily driver. The road treatments of the north would render this solid sedan… more»

28K Miles: 1977 Pontiac Grand Prix SJ
Pontiac’s Grand Prix certainly had staying power; in production from 1962 to 2008, its mission stayed remarkably consistent for a good portion of its run. It was a personal luxury coupe with an extra helping of sportiness, and buyers… more»

3-53 Detroit Diesel: 1958 Boyertown (Chevrolet) Merchandiser
Let’s face it, America was built on the backs of delivery vehicles. While we owe a debt of gratitude to the horse, for the last 100-plus years, we have been beholden to trucks and vans. While 18-wheelers still deliver… more»

Well-Documented 1965 Ford Thunderbird
Being an avid old-car hobbyist leads one down the most random avenues for daydreaming. In the case of this Thunderbird, we know that the original owner was one Mr. Denhart of San Diego, California, who on July 29, 1965,… more»

1968 Plymouth Fury III Sport Suburban Wagon
At least once a week here on Barn Finds, a car is posted that is so bafflingly equipped that one would give almost anything to interview the original owner in an effort to get to the bottom of it. Here’s… more»

The Ultimate Sleeper? 1969 Chevrolet Nova SS 396
Oddly enough, I’ve talked to more than a few people who really don’t like Novas, and personally, I don’t get it. Sure, the second-generation bodystyle was never available as a hardtop or a convertible, but it still looks nice… more»

No Reserve: 1975 Pontiac Firebird Formula
I’ve long been of the opinion that everybody should own a Firebird at least once in their lives; it’s a rolling embodiment of “cool.” As an extension of this concept, it’s hard to go wrong with a second-generation Firebird,… more»

One-Owner 1977 Chevrolet Monte Carlo
Bill Mitchell, GM’s Vice President of Design from 1959 through 1977, was famously responsible for some of the best shapes in the American automotive industry, but near the end of his career, some questioned the neoclassical themes he began… more»

Original Paint Survivor: 1972 Ford F-100 Ranger XLT
I’ve always envied the one-make person, the “Mopar-or-no-car” types, or those who bleed Ford Blue, or those who sided with 50 percent of Americans in always buying GM (when they were at their peak). I am not that guy,… more»

75K Mile Modern Classic: 2000 Audi TT Quattro
The 1990s and 2000s were great decades for Audi styling in general, highlighted perhaps by the cute little TT, which has (in my opinion) some of the most handsome styling of any readily attainable 21st-century car. I recall when… more»
