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»

Parked 32 Years Ago: 1970 Dodge Charger 500

Any way you look at it, the second-generation Dodge Charger (1968-1970) was a fantastic looking car. Though hyped in films by the likes of “Bullit”, “Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry” and the TV series, “The Dukes of Hazzard”, the Charger… more»

Hemi Powered! 1961 Daimler SP 250

What’s a Daimler SP250? I’d never heard of it and assumed that it was a product from Germany’s famed Daimler AG. Nope. Is it notable? It was voted the ugliest car at the 1959 New York Motor show, so… more»

Sporty And Stylish: 1971 Saab Sonett III

Certain auto brands conjure different images. Saab, in particular, is one that recalls small rounded, quirky two-cycle, compact cars or more mature 900, 9-3 and 9-5 sedans, coupes and convertibles. Unfortunately, today Saab doesn’t conjure much of any thought… more»

Forest Find? 1931 Ford Model A Pickup

There’s no denying the popularity of both the Ford Model A and older pickup trucks, both are a hot ticket right now. What happens when you combine the two? You end up with a Model A, closed cab pickup… more»

Loft Find: 1969 Chevrolet Camaro

Update 9/28/20 – We don’t know what this one sold for or if it even did when we featured it back in July, but it has resurfaced here on eBay with a $30k asking price! From 7/15/20 – At… more»

Original Family Owned: 1970 Chevrolet Monte Carlo

A first-gen Monte Carlo is my favorite; I really have little interest in the MC after those first three years (’70-’72). And a first-gen isn’t that unusual a find, they are still pretty common. But most cars, especially if… more»

Only 24K Miles! 1989 Maserati TC

OK, is it a Maserati, a LeBaron, something in between or just a poseur. It’s got that special Italian name but it has an everyday K-Car look about it. Whatever the case, we’ll figure it out as best we… more»

EcoTec Swap: 1976 Chevrolet Cosworth Vega

Be objective! An important rule in journalism, or so I’m told. And that sense of fairness should be extended to every vehicle post found here. I do find myself challenged with that admonition, especially in the case of a… more»

Big Block 4-Speed! 1966 Dodge Coronet Convertible

Update 9/25/20 – After getting bid up to $15k the last time around, this big block convertible has been relisted here on eBay. From 7/15/20 – I gravitate towards convertibles. I have owned several, and older ones, like this… more»

Sitting Since ’63: 1950 Chevrolet DeLuxe Hardtop

This Chevrolet is quite a find, and for a couple of reasons. It is listed as a DeLuxe model and the fender badge claims it as so, but the roofline and backlight are Bel Air all the way. And… more»
