Not So Super: 1941 Buick Series 50

Well, the barn finds keep getting found and flipped. Next up is a 1941 Buick Super Series 50. Stored on blocks in a Modesto, California barn for “decades”, this non-runner is now available, here on craigslist for $2,500. Thanks… more»

Regally Restored: 1969 Dodge Super Bee

I’m going to take a different tack with this 1969 Dodge Super Bee and ask, would you want this car? It was restored 30+ years ago but still looks great! It is being sold by the owner’s son to… more»

Oodles Of Fun! 1960 Chevrolet Bel Air

Pity the poor 1960 full-size Chevrolet. It doesn’t possess the “love it or hate it” crazy, full-on batwing styling of the ’59, nor does it have the svelte, modern lines of the ’61. It’s an in-betweeny! Regardless, over 1.4… more»

OHC Equipped! 1967 Pontiac Firebird Convertible

This one is interesting! It’s a first-year Pontiac Firebird convertible and it’s clearly rough around the edges – it will need a ton of work. And it’s not a highly desirable H.O. or a Sprint model but it still… more»

Land Yacht Survivor! 1979 Lincoln Continental Coupe

“Batten down them hatches, we’re about to set sail!” This 1979 Lincoln Continental Town Coupe is one titanic-sized car- and it only has two doors! Being a ’79 puts it the end of an era as Lincoln hopped on… more»

21K Miles! 1990 Ford Thunderbird SC

By 1990, all things automotive were starting to shrug off their ’70s induced malaise as they redeveloped some sporting intentions. Buick hit a grand slam in the ’80s with the Grand National and over at Ford, they had a… more»

Enough Doors? 1995 Cadillac XTS Limousine

There was a time when a multi-door limousine, also known as an “airport limousine” was a pretty common sight. The extra two or four-door make for a rather ungainly appearance but functionality, with some style, was the endgame. Benefactors… more»

Last Rear Wheel Driver: 1966 Cadillac Eldorado

Before there was the fabulous, front-wheel-drive Cadillac Eldorado, there was the Cadillac Eldorado. It’s a storied model name that dates to 1952 though many will associate it with the revolutionary front-wheel drive version that debuted in the 1967 model… more»

Noteworthy Nova: 1962 Chevrolet Chevy II 400

We cover 1962 vintage Chevrolets with regularity but they’re almost always full-size cars, Corvettes, and occasionally, Corvairs. As for the newly introduced Chevy II, not so much so. As a matter of fact, I had to go back three… more»

Stored 40 Years: 1967 Chevrolet El Camino

A second-gen (’64-’67) Chevrolet El Camino, such as this 1967 example, is always a nice find, mostly because they often get overshadowed, in numbers and value, by the third-gen (’68-’72) version. The images of our subject car aren’t the… more»

Big Brash Brougham! 1977 Chrysler New Yorker

Back in the day, any car with luxury or near-luxury aspirations got the “Brougham” designation. The problem is that those who were not familiar with the term often called it a “Brogum” and no one knew what in the… more»

Ran When Parked: 1969 Ford Mustang

The old “ran when parked” claim is a common and dismissive throw-away line that means “this car doesn’t run, but it did not all that long ago, so maybe there’s not much wrong with it”, or thereabouts. But the… more»

Ready To Rumble? 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS396

Wow, this 1966 Chevelle SS396 takes me back. The last time I saw a Chevelle configured like this was at the old U.S. 30 Dragway in York, Pennsylvania in the early ’70s. A common street/strip sight at one time,… more»

Patina Or Just Rust? 1979 Ford F150

A $60K boulevard cruiser that’s never done a lick of work? No way! This 1979 Ford F-150 is a Texas truck and it looks like it’s been worked hard and put away wet in the hot Waco sun. It… more»

NYC Barn Find? 1965 Chevrolet Corvette

A New York City Barn find, eh? Or so the listing proclaims. Ohhhkay, glad to have that out of the way. I didn’t think there had been any barns in NYC since the days of Peter Stuyvesant but what… more»

17K Mile Super Car! 1991 Acura NSX

All right, no, it’s not a barn find, or a garage find, or a project, this 1991 Acura NSX is a low mileage, survivor supercar. But if you like all things automotive, this is a pretty outstanding piece. I… more»
