2001 was the end of the road for the legendary Jeep Cherokee XJ. After 18 model years and nearly 3 million built, this iconic and popular SUV (which was introduced in 1984 before people started using the term “SUV”)… more»
Big Blue Beauty: 1970 Buick LeSabre Custom Convertible
It’s ironic that this handsome, full-sized convertible is a LeSabre (the sword), because it is one sharp-looking big blue Buick. Based on the provided photos and description, it’s been well cared for, garage-kept, and has 83,000 original miles on… more»
One-Family Owned California Classic: 1960 Mercedes-Benz 190 SL
Sixty-eight years after it was introduced, the Mercedes-Benz 190 SL has aged very, very well for a senior citizen. Its classic, fluid lines and beautiful proportions still turn heads. From a styling perspective, the 190 SL does have a… more»
No Reserve and One-Family Owned: 1974 Chrysler New Yorker Brougham
What a profile. I had forgotten how sculpted and stylish these ’74 Chryslers were (and I’m digging the roofline, rear fender treatment, and those factory side skirts). If this one was black-on-black, it would actually look a bit badass,… more»
Faded Green Grocery-Getter: 1970 Chevy Malibu Concours Wagon
A 1970 Chevy station wagon (finished in Green Mist Metallic) would’ve looked perfectly at home on The Brady Bunch, in the parking lot of a local hardware or grocery store, or in the middle-class suburban neighborhood I lived in… more»
1 of 337 Made: 1961 Chrysler 300-G Convertible
Several years ago, I attended Das Awkscht Fescht (The August Festival) in Macungie, Pennsylvania, one of the largest antique and classic car shows in the nation. That year the show’s featured car was the legendary Chrysler 300. I’ve never… more»
Numbers-Matching 409: 1963 Chevy Impala Sport Coupe
I’m going to refrain from referencing certain lyrics of a certain song from a certain Southern California rock group that sang about cars, surfing, and fun-in-the-sun in the 1960’s. But speaking of California, here’s a fine-looking, numbers-matching 1963 Chevrolet… more»
Modified Muscle Bird: 1957 Ford Thunderbird
At first glance it’s not unusual to see a classic two-seater Baby Bird sporting aftermarket wire wheels. But dual side exhausts? Wha?? The seller shares that the “relatively pedestrian” Y Block engine is long gone and says with some… more»
Straight from the Showroom: 9k Mile 1970 Chevrolet Impala
Boy, does this car bring back memories. I knew an older couple, Glenn and Gerry (short for Geraldine), back in the 1970’s that had a low-mileage, metallic blue 4-door Impala similar to this one. Even though it wasn’t a… more»
Perfect Patina: 1959 Chevrolet Apache Utility Bed
We have probably featured thousands of light-duty vintage pickups on Barn Finds through the years, but this is only the second one we’ve featured under the “Vintage Truck with Utility Bed” heading. I’ve seen plenty of vintage pickups and… more»
Fair Weather, Open Air Funmobile: 1973 Volkswagen Thing
I’ve been living in my neck of the woods of North Carolina for 20 years and last week I spotted my first Volkswagen Thing on the road. And it was orange, too. So when I saw this orange Thing… more»
Rare Camping Combo: 1952 Ford Ranch Wagon and Kom-Pak Sportsman Trailer!
Combining novelty and rarity, here’s something you definitely don’t see every day. I’d be curious if any of our readers have ever seen one of these Kom-Pak Sportsman Trailers up close and personal. I know I haven’t. Here’s a… more»
Carolina Blue Survivor: 1978 Ford F-150 Custom
I live in North Carolina, about an hour away from Chapel Hill and the University of North Carolina, so I see this pickup truck’s particular shade of blue (and other reminders that the driver of the vehicle in front… more»
5k Miles! 1979 Chevy C20 Time Capsule
From time-to-time, we feature some well preserved, low-mileage 40+-year-old pickup trucks here on Barn Finds, but this is the nicest example I’ve come across. A time capsule with a capital T. You’re looking at an all original, rust-free 1979… more»
Super Cheap ($700): 1994 Ford Thunderbird
With a headline reading: ****MUST GO**** – $700 and a brief description starting out with, “I am selling this car for my neighbor…It has been sitting for 5 years and his wife just wants it gone.” I’m guessing there… more»
32k Original Miles: 1973 Volkswagen Super Beetle
Twenty years after the end of World War II, my dad (who served in the Navy aboard the U. S. S. Texas battleship), bought his first Volkswagen, a Ruby Red 1965 Beetle. He loved that car and was impressed… more»
