It appears that the elderly original owner of this 1984 Dodge Ramcharger parked the vehicle in his barn soon after purchase, and never drove it again. It remained in that location after he passed away, until the family revived… more»

51k Mile Survivor: 1967 Volvo 1800S

It is incredibly nostalgic for me to see this car because I owned its duplicate for something like 20 years. The only difference was the color—mine was that interesting refrigerator white that Volvo had. This one is a California-white… more»
Blank Canvas: 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Convertible

There’s no escaping the fact that restoring this 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Convertible is going to be a major undertaking. However, it is a classic that is structurally sound, and it represents a blank canvas for its next owner…. more»
1-Of-255: Moulin Rouge 1970 Plymouth Barracuda

Third-generation Barracudas are popular here on Barn Finds. And for good reason, because they were well-liked during and after their time in the sun and aren’t as commonplace today as Mustangs or Camaros. This one is particularly rare because… more»
Pierre Cardin Edition: 1973 AMC Javelin AMX

American Motors was always the underdog. But that didn’t stop them from coming up with unusual or different cars. One of them was the AMX, a 2-seat, shortened version of the Javelin that could tear up some asphalt. Unfortunately,… more»
Yard Find: 1973 Ford Mustang Mach 1

By 1973, the Ford Mustang wasn’t as popular as it once was. Instead of selling 1.2 million cars as they did in 1965-66 combined, they were down to 135,000 copies for ’73 alone. Sure, the field was saturated with… more»
1 Of 122: 1970 AMC AMX

We’ve seen several AMX’s pop up recently. And most of them have been either rusted out or wrecked. While this 1970 AMX isn’t perfect, it looks to have a future that sadly the others do not. From its last… more»
Field Find: $1,500 1969 Datsun 1600

Before the 240Z, there was the 1500/1600/2000, a little sports car series out of Japan that was better known there as the Fairlady. Its main competitors were Triumph, Fiat and MG, particularly the MGB. The roadster, with differing engine… more»
Corduroy Bucket Seats: 1977 Buick Regal S/R

Buick launched the Regal in 1973 as something of a personal luxury coupe version of the Century. That was the beginning of the Colonnade body style that General Motors employed on its intermediates through 1977. This 1977 Regal S/R… more»
V8-Swapped 1982 AMC Eagle SX/4 Barn Find!

You have to give struggling American Motors credit for trying. They always seemed to make something come out of nothing. Case in point is the four-wheel drive family of cars called the Eagle which AMC launched for 1980, a… more»
Clean Barn Find: 1988 Ford Mustang GT

This 1988 Ford Mustang GT is described as a barn find by the seller, but it certainly looks better than most cars we see dragged out into the daylight for the first time in decades. It’s a desirable manual… more»
Sublime Project? 1970 Plymouth Barracuda

In 1970, the Plymouth Barracuda would finally get its own platform and lose the family resemblance to the grocery-getter Valiant. I always found these to be the most attractive of the pony cars, alongside its corporate cousin, the new… more»
Fair Barn Find: 1964 Datsun Fairlady 1500

I had not thought much about a Datsun Fairlady in a long time. I had a college friend, many years ago, that drove a thoroughly dented ’69 model 2000 (it was surprisingly quick!) and then Mike and Ant of… more»
Last Registered In ’86: 1956 Chrysler Windsor

The 1955-56 Chryslers had the “hundred million dollar look,” according to the marketing pundits. These were large, graceful cars that had a more dynamic appearance than the competition. This certainly was true of the hardtop coupes, like the 1956… more»
Perfect Patina? 1977 AMC Gremlin X

In the early 1970s, all the U.S. automakers were scrambling to come up with sub-compact cars to do battle against the imports (and each other). AMC beat both Chevy and Ford to the punch by nearly six months with… more»
Numbers Matching! 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle SS

I’m starting to think build sheets are more valuable than the cars they came with! This rusty and dilapidated 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle SS does still have its original build sheet and some other tasty features, and therefore the price… more»
