348/4-Speed: 1958 Chevrolet Impala Hardtop

The 1958 Impala led a bit of a star-crossed existence for many years. Coming on the heels of the uber-successful tri-fives (’55-’57), it was a radical change, to say the least. The “And now for my next trick…” proffering… more»

Rare Convertible: 1981 Pontiac Trans Am Turbo

Here’s another to add to the list of formerly unbeknownst to me, a 1981 Pontiac Firebird TransAm convertible. I have encountered Gen-II “F” bodies that are topless but they were of the backyard, Sawzall variety, and certainly not professionally… more»

1965 Ford Mustang Fastback Project

Ouch, Ouch, and another Ouch is how I would describe this 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback. Even the seller states, “This car is a serious project. Nothing here is going to “Buff Out” so if that’s what you want, keep… more»

Unlikely Survivor: 22K Mile 1985 Mercury Cougar

Normally, a commodity car like an ’85 Mercury Cougar would barely register a nod of interest. But when you consider 35 years of age, 22K miles, and excellent condition, its stock will have a tendency to rise. The interest… more»

Four-Speed Judge! 1969 Pontiac GTO

Update 10/6/20 – This GTO project has been relisted here on eBay with the option to place a bid or buy it now for $24k. From 6/4/20 – Well, I could have opened up with “Here come ‘da judge”… more»

Half Century Slumber: 1963 Porsche 356B Super

Not every barn find ends up staying in a barn find condition for long. Take this 1963 Porsche 356B, owned by the same person for fifty years, it has just arisen from its long slumber and is now ready… more»

Original Family Owned: 1932 Ford 5-Window Coupe

Model A Fords are covered regularly here on Barn Finds and they are found in every imaginable condition. Today, for your review we have the Model A’s successor, the very popular ’32, also known as a Model B. The… more»

Marine Find: 1958 Whirlwind Wooden Runabout

Sometimes we use one, not necessarily related, noun to describe another. For example, “That V8, two-seater, something or other, pulls like a freight train”. Or, “Any way you cut it, that 74 Mercury Grand Marquis is a boat“. And… more»

1953 Chevrolet Corvette Prototype Seats Worth $90k?

This could be one for the record book! Instead of examining a desirable collectible car like a 1953 Chevrolet Corvette, we’re going to take a look at ’53 Corvette parts. But not just any parts but “prototype” parts, specifically,… more»

No Reserve Beauty: 1937 Packard Business Coupe

When I was a boy, I knew an older gentleman who lived near me and he was a study in antiquity. I never knew exactly what he did for a living, I think he had several different avenues, but… more»

Ford V8 Power! 1965 Sunbeam Tiger

For whatever reason, I gravitate towards the Sunbeam Alpine/Tiger, much more so than I do towards other British sports cars and it’s not necessarily due to the Tiger’s version V8 engine. It is probably more to do with the… more»

Factory 5-Speed: 1976 Oldsmobile 442

The first time that I encountered one of these five-speed manual transmission-equipped Oldsmobile Cutlasses was about a year and a half ago at a local Cars and Coffee. A friend picked me up in his Challenger Hellcat and after… more»

M-Code 351 Equipped: 1970 Ford Torino GT

Do you know what’s great about this ’70 Ford Torino GT? It’s not a ’70 Chevelle SS or Roadrunner. OK, OK, before all of the poison darts start coming my way, I’m more a Chevy/Plymouth/Dodge guy, (as domestics go)… more»

Sliding Pillar Suspension: 1966 Morgan DHC

Unlike some finds that have recently turned up, this 1966 Morgan Drop Head Coupe is not unheard of but hardly commonplace either. Morgan is a storied brand, just not encountered often. This 1966 example is a driver and seems… more»

French Find: 1966 Citroen HY Pickup

In the continuing quest to find and bring unusual vehicles to Barn Finds readers, here’s another for the “seldom seen” category, a 1966 Citroen HY pickup. Unusual? You bet, I know I’ve never seen one in the steel and… more»
