1937 Chrysler Royal, undisturbed since ’69

This 1937 Chrysler Royal found by reader Robert R is just how barn finds really look before a wash and a trailer. There’s no telling what might be under all that dirt. It’s in Tulare, California, generally a fairly dry place, so… more»

1926 Dodge Business Sedans: Pick One!

The value of older cars has dropped dramatically. I hope these historic cars are saved. Here’s an interesting example and choice, 2 1926 Dodge business sedans. One, the first picture, is a really nice survivor found by Charles H… more»

1959 Imperial Crown Southampton Survivor

Thanks to Robert for this find, a 1959 Chrysler Imperial Crown Southampton 4 door hardtop, a title almost as long as the car. It also has a large 413 cid with a 4 barrel to move it down. This is… more»

1957 Lincoln Premiere: Hardtop Styling

The current owner of this 1957 Lincoln bought it in 1965 and drove it until 1973, when he put it in his garage for a 41 year nap. Lots of mechanical work has been done in the last year,… more»

1941 Packard 90: Open Top Tour Bus

We’ve seen some very interesting stretched vehicles, but this 1941 Packard 90 that was stretched to over 22 feet long has to be the most interesting yet! To put all that added space to good use a few more… more»

1956 Continental Mark II Survivor

You don’t see many of these 1956 Continentals around and here’s a 2 door. They say it does run but don’t provide much more information than that. It looks complete and original. The asking of $22,000 seems high, but… more»

1973 Buick Riviera: Ready To Sail

A few months ago Jeff did a review on a Boat Tail very much like this Buick 1973 Riviera that was “rough around the edges”. If we are to believe the seller, this original Riviera is, well, smooth around the… more»

1962 Jaguar XKE: Flat Floor Roadster

Thanks to Dennis J for finding this one! When I had my first look at this 1962 Jaguar XKE flat floor convertible I was, well, shocked. Bidding here on eBay is over $50,000 and the reserve has still not been met…. more»

1978 Chevy Nova: Super Clean But Plain

When this 1978 Nova was ordered they didn’t check many boxes, just radio, power steering and a vinyl roof. Its history is a mystery, bought 11 years ago at a charity auction. The owner has started it weekly and… more»

1966 Dodge Polara: Sleeper Potential

Could this be, a 1966 Dodge Polara 383 big block with auto trans and only original 27,000 miles? The pictures look pretty nice, the dealer did a nice job detailing this Dodge. It’s said to be rust free, which could be… more»

1969 Ford XL SportsRoof: Extra Dirt And Parts

This 1969 Ford XL SportsRoof was about as fancy as a Ford could get back then. I had the “pleasure” of driving a brand new one into a ditch on purpose once. I was working at a gas station… more»

1973 VW Type 181: Just The Thing For Fun!

There’s not much information on this 1973 VW Thing except that it’s been stored and the engine turns but doesn’t run. VW engines are easy to work on and inexpensive. It needs a new floor under the battery, but… more»

1968 Ford Fire Truck Barn Find

Here’s a very low mileage 1968 Ford fire truck. It has only about 11,000 miles on it. Imagine what this fellow told his wife when he brought this home (I hate to think of what she might have said… more»

1967 Plymouth GTX 440: Rough And Ready

This 1967 GTX 440 automatic appears to be a solid with some great potential. There seems to be little rust and it looks to be a very original car. The owner has gotten it running and driving, but it needs the usual… more»

1965 Ford T-Bird: Ready To Fly

This 1965 T-Bird was rescued from a barn 2 years ago. The owner has cleaned it up and fixed a few things, but the transmission still won’t go into high gear and his rust repair sounds dubious and would need… more»
