Basement Find! 1964 Ford Thunderbird

While the name of this website is “Barn Finds“, it’s pretty obvious that not all of our featured cars are actual barn, garage, shed, carport, etc. finds. Things started out that way, and we still do feature “found” cars… more»

1947 Lincoln Continental “Wildcat”

Post-war Lincolns (’46-’48) make regular appearances here on BF and they are instantly recognizable for their distinctive styling. Actually, that vintage of the famed Continental, such as our 1947 subject car, is little changed from the pre-war (’40-’42) iteration…. more»

No Reserve Rarity: 1967 Rambler Rogue Rag Top

OK, so there is some initial confusion with the listing for this convertible. It is stated as being an AMC Hornet Silver(?) but it’s actually a 1967 Rambler American Rogue convertible – and a rare car at that as… more»

8K Miles Of D’Elegance: 1990 Cadillac Brougham

D’Elegance? How’s that for a pretentious-sounding name? Not only is it a D’Elegance edition, but it’s an upgrade to the exalted Brougham (pronounced bro-ham) model. All of this silliness aside, this 1990 Cadillac is a nice-looking luxury sedan that… more»

Bargain Of A lifetime? 1969 Aston Martin DB6

OK folks, it’s Gullwing Motor Cars time, and today, for your review, we have a 1969 Aston Martin DB6. In keeping with most of the Gullwing cars that we review, this one is not without its foibles. Actually, it… more»

No Reserve Coupe! 1975 Jaguar XJ6

We have covered these Jaguar XJ coupes, such as this 1975 edition, here on BF before and the posts usually start out with the word “Rare”. Well, if I found enough of these on this site, maybe they’re not… more»

One Year Only: 1979 Buick “Palm Beach” LeSabre

A Buick LeSabre Palm Beach edition, really? With all of the discussion of Palm Beach, Florida real estate values that are circulating through the news these days, I don’t think a Buick LeSabre is going to cut it as… more»

It’s A BOGO! 1969 And 1970 Mercury Marauders

Full size still ruled at the conclusion of the ’60s, or so Mercury thought, as they pursued the end of days for full-size performance with their Marauder, and more intensely, with the Marauder X-100. And today, for your review,… more»

Estate Sale Special: 1964 Mercedes-Benz 220 SE

Talk about classic lines, this 1964 Mercedes 220 SE makes a stunning visual statement, in particular with its hardtop roof design and classic C-pillar. Restored about ten years ago, this coupe still presents beautifully and has experienced 91K miles… more»

22K Mile Survivor: 1978 Lincoln Mark V

The last time that I covered a Lincoln Continental Mark V, such as this 1978 subject from Loch Haven, Pennsylvania, I was a bit disparaging, something that I will not do this time. Late ’70s cars are far from… more»

Originality Abounds: 1968 Mercury Cougar XR-7

Seeing this 1968 Mercury Cougar XR-7 made me think of its virtues vs. those of its crosstown rival, the Pontiac Firebird, both new market entrants in 1967. And of course, there’s the inevitable comparison between the Cougar and its… more»

Hopped Up 327: 1968 Chevrolet C-10 Short Bed

This is the one that everyone wants! It’s a member of Chevrolet’s very popular “Action Line” (’67-’72) pickup trucks. And…this citizen of Odessa, Texas, a 1968 C-10, is the more popular short wheelbase/cargo bed version! Don’t let its looks… more»

The Baby Pinin Ferrari? 1962 Fiat 1200

When I first spied this 1962 Fiat 1200 Cabriolet, I thought, at first, it was a late ’60s Datsun 1600/2000. Nope, not quite but it is a Fiat model that I have not encountered before. Said to be sitting… more»

Clean As A Whistle: 1965 Ford Ranchero

OK, no muscle car V8 here, no four-speed manual gearbox either – if you’re looking for that stuff, you won’t find it in this post. Last week, a commenter bemoaned all of the Barn Finds exposure to high horsepower-equipped… more»

You Complete It! 1967 Oldsmobile Cutlass

OK, this one’s a real “partspalooza”! It’s a 1967 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Sports Coupe and has an oft-told tale to tell, “Selling our project car – not enough time to work on it now. Started with my son who… more»

Easy Project? 1964 Chevrolet Malibu SS

Here’s an interesting one, it’s a 1964 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu SS that has undergone performance mods but has obvious appearance issues. The seller suggests, “This is very honest car with good bones that is an excellent candidate for a… more»
