9 Second Sidekick: 1993 Geo Tracker

This Geo Tracker does two things few cars can do at the same time: it runs nine second quarter miles and also takes its owner to work and back each day. Featuring an incredible engine swap that resulted in… more»

Sort of Restored: 1968 AMC Javelin SST

As a rule of thumb, we hesitate from posting restored cars here on Barn Finds, but this 1968 AMC Javelin SST doesn’t quite qualify as it’s still tired in some areas. While the interior has been completely redone and… more»

Bad Alternator: 1982 Dodge Rampage

It doesn’t take long for a small issue to sideline a car or truck for the long-term. Take this 1982 Dodge Rampage, for example: an alternator that wouldn’t take a charge forced it into early retirement with plans to… more»

How Many Left? 1989 Sterling 827 SLI

This rare 1989 Sterling 827 SLI has all the hallmarks of an elderly-owned vehicle that hit the auction lot once the heirs decided they wanted nothing to do with the unusual make. There’s almost 250,000 miles on the odometer,… more»

All Kinds of Potential: 1969 Dodge A108

Looking like it’s shivering under a coating of Maine snow, this 1969 Dodge A108 van is in need of a new forever home after leaving the clutches of the original owner recently. The body is rough and the motor… more»

Rare Breadvan: Porsche 924 Turbo DP Cargo

One of the first things I’ll do when I make a billion dollars is to commission the creation of a custom wagon of my choosing like all those oil-rich princes and sultans in the Middle East. That seems to… more»

Dusty Louvers: 20+ Years Stored Datsun 280Z

If you’re thinking this 1978 Datsun 280Z has about 20 years’ worth of dust, you’d be correct. The listing on craigslist is short and sweet, simply noting that it’s been parked for two decades and doesn’t run (surprise, surprise)…. more»

Domestic Long Roof: 1962 Ford Falcon Wagon

Wagons remain one of the most under-appreciated classics (and daily drivers) out there, as it’s a rig you can use as you would any vintage vehicle with the added hauling capacity to make it more functional than most vintage… more»

Preserved Turbo: 1989 Ford Probe GT

Ford’s Probe coupe has all but disappeared from U.S. roads, with few examples still being used as daily drivers. Even fewer that are left feature the desirable turbocharged powerplant, and this first-generation model is an impressive survivor with the… more»

Clean & Stock Z31: 1988 Nissan 300ZX

I remain somewhat amazed at how many of these Z31-chassis 300ZXs still show up for sale, many in preserved condition like this example with just over 88,000 miles. The 300ZX has been an enthusiast favorite for years, with many… more»

Georgia Short Bed: 1972 Chevrolet C-10

My favorite types of projects are those cars and trucks that look good with just a modest lowering kit and the right wheels. Chevrolet C-1o trucks are a great example of this premise, as this Georgia short-bed shows. The… more»

1 of 2 T-Tops: 1985.5 Ford Mustang SVO

It’s been documented on these pages in the past that the 1985.5 Ford Mustang SVOs are already special cars due to their limited production and better performance (some might say looks, too, with the more streamlined headlights). But this… more»

Gold Medalist Edition: 1976 Chevy Nova

It’s no secret that GM loves its special editions. Even today, you can walk into any Chevrolet dealer and ride away in a “limited” edition vehicle with special graphics and paint. Whether that vehicle will present any sort of… more»

Drive It Home: 1983 Ford Mustang GLX

While Fox Bodies are a dime a dozen, the early cars with their four square headlights are harder to find in presentable condition. This GLX-spec convertible features the 3.8L Essex V6 and is said to be a reliable driver… more»

Parked 23 Years: 1971 Datsun 240Z

This early-model Datsun 240Z seems like a fair deal at $9,000 if the seller’s description holds water. The listing claims the seller purchased the car from the original owner, who had parked the 240Z in his garage for 23… more»

Warehouse Find: 11 Brand New BMWs Discovered!

As your resident BMW fanatic, this story made my heart skip a beat when considering the prospect of a new-in-the-wrapper E34 M5 being under one of those dusty sheets. Sadly, this collection of 11 forgotten BMW 5-Series sedans (and… more»
