Barn Finds reader Johnny S uncovered a great find in Oregon: a 1970 Opel GT, 1963 Volvo P1800, 1968 Saab V4, and a Datsun Fairlady, all in the same barn! They all need work, but the asking prices don’t… more»
What a Face! 1957 Chevrolet Suburban 3100
Looking over Craigslist this morning, the face of this Suburban jumped out at me. What a mug! I think this truck may be saying “Get me back on the road or else!” This tough looking early SUV can be… more»
Wagon with a Stiff Upper Lip: 1969 Ford Cortina
When I first saw the pictures of this Cortina Estate, the nose-in-the air attitude caused by a lack of drivetrain had me thinking of my very British father’s suggestion of “keeping a stiff upper lip” when faced with crisis…. more»

Yank Tank in Britain: 1969 Cadillac Fleetwood
Barn Finds reader Ricky M sent us a tip that a rather large piece of American iron had found its way to the UK and was for sale. At 19 feet long, this Cadillac must dwarf most cars, and… more»
Ol’ Blue: 1965 International D1100 Pickup
One thing you can say about the 60’s International pickups and Travelalls is that they have a very distinctive style (which I happen to like). They have the reputation for being very tough, but not very luxurious. Some even… more»

Orange Gold: 1978 Mini Midas
When I was little, my father used to bring me back 1/43 scale die-cast cars from his business travels. My favorite was a metallic burgundy Mini Marcos. What’s a Mini Marcos, you ask? First sold in 1965, the Mini… more»
Yes, You Could Have a V8: 1980 Triumph TR8
Ok, I admit it, as a past owner of a TR8 (and hopefully someday a future owner as well), I’m partial to the last Triumph TR. The Harris Mann-penned design has worn well through the years, and this convertible… more»
A Fair Project: 1967 Ford Fairlane 500

Cruising Patrol: 1939 Ford Ambulance
While most current ambulances are converted from vans, I remember seeing a lot of converted station wagons in my youth. Go back even further , by looking at the front end sheetmetal and the lack of a v8 emblem… more»
A-peeling Coupe: 1969 Triumph GT6+
When the Triumph Spitfire debuted in 1962, the fact that it had the small 1147cc Herald-based engine didn’t matter to a market hungry for an Italian-styled pretty little sports car. Unlike its main competitors (the Austin-Healey Sprite/MG Midget tandem)… more»
