Rare Turbo-Diesel: 1980 International Scout II

That Thing Got A Hemi? 1967 Dodge Monaco

We find lots of mid to late ’60s full-size Detroit iron all of the time, Fords and Chevrolets in particular. Plymouths? Not too often. How about Dodges? Nope, hardly ever. Well, it’s about time and here we go with… more»

Fuel Injected 455? 1970 Buick Riviera

Buick’s fabulous Riviera gets its fair share of coverage on Barn Finds – certainly the early second-gen (’66-’70) and the spectacularly styled third-gen (’71-’73) with its most distinctive boattail rear end. One model year that is often overlooked, however,… more»

Your Cab Is Here! 1957 Austin London Taxi

57K Mile Survivor: 1985 Toyota Celica GTS

My favorite Toyota! I have owned a few Toyotas and this vintage Celica (I owned an ’83 GT for ten years) was the only one that ever excited me. Now, it’s not a powerhouse, but it will move along… more»

A Few Custom Touches? 1949 Mercury Coupe

Sliding Roof Special: 1963 Studebaker Wagonaire

Hot-Rod Possibilities? 1937 Plymouth Coupe

Synonymous with 1930’s automotive finds in the name Ford – they were everywhere then and covered many bases. Chevrolet had a major presence too but it seems that Ford has had survival on its side. How about Plymouth? Perineally… more»

Ready To Rumble: 1963 Ford Galaxie 500 Hot Rod

If you watch the January big-name auctions you’ll see lots and lots of top-flight cars trading for huge $$$. Highly restored pristine cars like a ’63 Ford Galaxie 500 “R-code” will bring six figures. Highly restored cars, unfortunately, crowd… more»

46K Original Miles: 1981 Jeep CJ8 Scrambler

JEEP! These days it may as well be a synonym for gold. The one-time Ford, Willys, Kaiser-Jeep, AMC, Chrysler Corporation, Chrysler Group, FCA, and current Stellantis marque writes its own ticket these days. That wasn’t always the case and… more»

Very Rare 1933 Continental Beacon Hot-Rod

Les Brown’s Renowned 1956 Continental Mark II

OK, who remembers Les Brown and His Band of Renown? Well, not me exactly (I’m old but not that old) but I do remember, as a kid, when Dean Martin’s show was on the tube and Les Brown was… more»

New Original Stock: DIXCO Hood Mounted Tachometer
