Team Barn Finds Racing Report: Marina Takes 2nd!

Last weekend was our 6th race with the Marina, and while the result was a good one (2nd in class, 36th overall out of 108 cars), it was a difficult route to get there. Some of you have asked… more»

Success Story: The Torino Is Headed To Georgia!

Our Torino GT just got loaded up and is headed to Tom in Georgia! We will miss this one, but it’s going to a good home. Tom already has plans to respray the car in the original color and… more»

BF Exclusive: 1969 Ford Torino GT

UPDATE: The reserve has been lowered! The car is going to sell, but for how much?

My Fiat 124 Spider: Now In Grey!

It cost me just $50 to transform my Fiat!

Say Hello To My Seven… I Mean Hawk

Say hello to my newest project!

Ready To Cruise: 1966 Cadillac Coupe DeVille

You may recognize this Cadillac. Josh and I helped our father dig it out over the 4th of July weekend – you can read more about that adventure here. We got it running, but didn’t have time to clean… more»

Torino Project: Looking Good At Last!

Well guys, I recently promised an update on our 1969 Ford Torino GT and here it is! For whatever reason, Summer is the busiest time of the year for us, so it’s been hard to get out to the… more»

MGB Update: Still Running Rough!

A while back we were discussing the possible causes of my MGB’s rough idle and many of you suggested that the carburetors could be the culprit. I wanted to blame it on the valve train, but before doing anything… more»

Lemons Wedge: 1978 Triumph TR7

What’s this? Jamie’s posting about another find being sold off a trailer? Nope, not this time. That’s my sad looking trailer, and rather than a flipper selling a car, this was a picture while we were on the way… more»

Our Dad’s Find: 1966 Cadillac Coupe DeVille

A couple weeks ago, I received a phone call from my Dad. I don’t typically get up and leave meetings to answer my phone, but for some reason I thought I’d better take this call. I asked if everything… more»

MGB Update: Timing Is Everything!

Project updates on my MGB have been slim because it has provided reliable service for the most part. It has started to develop a rough idle lately though. The problem was worse on hot days, so I figured a new condenser… more»

Torino Project: Help Us Create A Plan!

One of the best aspects of a new project is getting to dream about all the things you want to do to it. Well, since we now know our Singer is going to sell, we have been spending some time thinking… more»

Torino Project: Help Us Cool Off!

Look at what we found in the trunk of our new Torino project! It’s a Mark IV underdash A/C unit and from what I have read, they were a common add-on at Ford dealers in the sixties. The John… more»

Let’s See What Our Singers Worth!

About two weeks ago we asked all of you what you thought our 1952 Singer Roadster was worth. The estimates ranged from $3k – $10k. That’s a pretty big spread, but that could be because there aren’t many of… more»

Our New Project: 1969 Ford Torino GT!

I just drove by a school to see if it would frighten small children. Sure enough. I revved the engine at a stoplight to see if modern muscle cars would cower in fear. Sure enough. You could see the… more»

What’s Our 1952 Singer Worth?

So we’ve had fun cruising around in our little Singer Hot Rod, but we just bought something that might be a bit more fitting for Barn Finds and we need to make room. Could we keep the Singer? Of course,… more»
