Panoz is a brand most of us don’t think of often, but they’ve been building some pretty radical cars for the last 30 years. Their first model was this Roadster, introduced in 1992, which means this is a first-year… more»

350 V8 Survivor: 1972 Buick Skylark
As a mid-size automobile, the Buick Skylark was produced over two generations from 1964-72. It was usually a top-seller for the GM division and was trimmed similarly to Oldsmobile’s Cutlass and Cutlass Supreme. The 1970-72 “notchback” editions are some… more»
High Quality Driver: 1981 Pontiac Trans Am
Too often, vintage muscle car builders obsess over the engine and don’t seemingly pay much attention to the other major systems that can impact actual driving enjoyment. I get it – these are straight line machines – but there’s… more»
Flying Fishbowl! 1980 AMC Pacer
American Motors was an automaker that would think out of the box as needed to stay relevant. A case-in-point is the oddball 1970-77 Gremlin, while another is the 1975-80 Pacer. The latter was an upside-down bathtub-shaped compact that had… more»
Solid Runner: 1931 Ford Model A Coupe
Older classic cars like the Ford Model A make an excellent subject for a project build. This is especially true if the person undertaking the work is a first-timer or novice. Their simple engineering principles mean that dismantling and… more»
350/5-Speed: 1985 Pontiac Trans Am
It seems that the classic world is full of unfinished project vehicles, but this 1985 Pontiac Trans Am could be a cut above the rest. The owner purchased it as a father/son project, but the son has decided to… more»
16k Original Miles: 1986 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS
As the 1980s evolved, vehicle manufacturers extracted improved performance from their beloved V8 engines that had been strangled in the previous decade. However, they were also turning to the art of aerodynamics to complement their engine developments. Nowhere is… more»
Ten Passenger Model: 1968 Ford Country Squire
Keeping the long roof trend going, today we have a 1968 Ford Country Squire for your review. I gravitated towards this car because readers appear to have an attraction to big, old Detroit wagons and an old friend from… more»
19K Original Miles: 1994 Ford Mustang GT
The SN95 Ford Mustang continues to be one of the best muscle car bargains out there at the moment, in my opinion. They are cheap and cheerful, and build quality is nothing to write home about, but if you’re… more»
Cheaper than a Bugatti: Triumph Boat Tail Speedster
Home-built projects like these are always so tantalizing, largely because you know if you own it, no one else will have anything like it on the road. Of course, it also means the quality of the product is up… more»
30k Original Miles: 1990 Ford Mustang LX
We see our share of tidy Fox-Body Mustangs here at Barn Finds, but this 1990 LX is something a bit different. It is an original survivor that appears to need nothing and presents superbly. It has a genuine 30,000… more»
3-Seat Survivor: 1969 Buick Sport Wagon
The Sport Wagon was often overshadowed by Oldsmobile’s equivalent, the Vista Cruiser. Both had a raised roof with extra glass and skylights over the cargo and second seat area. They were produced over three generations (1967-72), although the later… more»
Rare Twin Turbo: 1989 Callaway Corvette
This is the sort of collector car I simply don’t expect to see on craigslist. It’s a claimed real-deal Callaway Twin-Turbo Chevrolet Corvette, which is apparently one of just 67 examples made that year. The Callaway was the epitome… more»
73k Miles: 1973 Citroen SM
Citroen has put out many quirky-looking cars, which were often high performance and full of unique tech. This 1973 Citroen SM is a great example of that. It’s running and driving and appears to be in pretty good condition…. more»
Spotless Hauler: 1989 Dodge Ram D250
Once a classic pickup has a few years under its belt, it is common for it to look a bit rough around the edges. However, there will occasionally be an exception to that rule. That appears to be the… more»
