British Brute: 1960 Triumph TR3

Triumph’s Spitfire never really did it for me. I have always wanted a TR2 or 3 though. They may be primitive with their tractor derived engines and cut down doors, but there is just something about them that gets… more»

Cycle Power: 1957 Berkeley SA322

With today’s high gas prices, a motorcycle powered sports car sounds like a good idea to us. It is not a new concept though as Berkeley Cars was cranking them out back in the fifties. The first in their… more»

32 Year Sleep: 1972 Porsche 911 T

This 1972 1973 Porsche 911 has been sitting in the original owner’s garage for 32 years. He purchased it new in 1972, drove it for eight years, and then supposedly parked it in 1980 even though it was still… more»

Discount Membership: 1974 Porsche 914

We all long to stumble across a high dollar barn find. You hear those stories of average guys discovering a Gullwing or a Bugatti stashed away, but truth is, most of us wouldn’t be able to restore one if… more»

Affordable FWD Fun: 1974 Saab Sonett III

Front wheel drive cars are boring. They are built strictly for efficiency. There have been a few attempts to make them more exciting though and Saab was a pioneer in that area. FF was the layout of choice for… more»

Basement Find: 1929 Ford Roadster

We haven’t featured many hot rods here on Barn Finds, but occasionally we find one that is claimed to have been built back in the day so we can’t resist. There is just something cool about a car that… more»

Derelict Dreams: 1952 Chevrolet Deluxe

Perhaps I am biased, but I really like this car. I drove a similar example through high school so this 1952 Chevy Deluxe really caught my eye. The seller dragged this one out of a barn in South Dakota where… more»

Reader Find: 1967 Datsun Sports 1600

Not all great automotive discoveries are made as the result of much research and hunting. Many are actually made on accident. Take reader Chad P’s Datsun barn find for example. Here is the tale in Chad’s own words…

Credit Card Classic: 1964 Triumph TR4

True barn finds can be great fun for those with enough skills and money to get them on the road again. But for those of us without those prerequisites, an affordable driver quality car may be the better option…. more»

1941 Dodge Sedan With A Lake View

Now we are not encouraging anyone to go out and buy this, but when reader Doug M sent us a link to this waterlogged 1941 Dodge, we knew we had to feature it. We have seen some interesting classifieds over… more»

Barn Flipper: 1962 Chevrolet Corvette

Many of us hate flippers. You know, the guys who pickup cars cheap and then turn around and sell them for a profit. Why do we dislike these lucky fellows so much though? Perhaps we are just jealous we… more»

Cobweb Convertible: 1968 Triumph Spitfire

A couple summers back I picked up a ’72 Spitfire from a used car lot. I enjoyed it, but I always longed for an earlier model. Mark I and IIs had better looks, but the Mark III actually had… more»

What You Missed: Terry Bennett Auction

German Triplets: 1970 Opel GT Project

In an attempt to spice up their image, Opel released their own sports car in 1968. With a 1.1 liter engine as standard, we are not sure how much it helped. The seller of this yellow 1970 Opel GT… more»

Short Notice: 1972 Citroen SM

We are late finding this one, as the auction is ending in just 3 hours, but we had to feature it because Citroen SMs do not come along very often. With their quirky French styling and Maserati engine, there… more»
