One Of 16 Remaining! Not A Falcon But A Frontenac!

At first glance, you might think this is a plain first generation Ford Falcon–but now look a little closer, especially at the front grille. Different, huh? Yes, this is a one-year only (1960) Ford Frontenac, only sold in Canada…. more»

T-Roof Project: 1980 Dodge Mirada

Stored Since The 1970’s: 1959 Jaguar XK150 Coupe

Unlike many British car fans, I like the XK150 better than both the 140 and 120 variants (heresy, I know)! With four wheel disc brakes, more performance, and in the coupe version a more pleasing roof line (several Jaguar… more»

Doesn’t Stop Real Good: 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback

It’s a Write Off: 1961 Chevy Corvette

Not too long ago, we featured a Stingray that had been through a fire, leaving it a ragged pile of a project. Interestingly, it appears as if the same seller has yet another burned-out ‘Vette for sale. This 1961… more»

Gran 429: 1972 Ford Torino

Saying the ’72 Gran Torino is a grand car is quite accurate really. Compared to previous generations of Torinos or the Mustang, the Gran Torino looks larger than life. The Coke bottle styling is fantastic and I love the… more»

Original And Cheap: 1940 Buick Super Model 50

428 Cobra Jet Power: 1970 Mustang Mach 1

While I like the earlier Mustangs a little bit more, I’m still a huge fan of the first generation of Mach 1s. The redesign of the Mustang in ’69 created one of the best looking Mustangs, but they also grew… more»

Karmann Ghia Behind The Shed Find

Karmann Ghias are always controversial when we feature them on Barn Finds. To some, they offer an attractive body with the simplicity of Beetle mechanical components; sort of a poor man’s Porsche 356. Others can’t get past the plebian… more»

Shed Find: 1967 Jeep J2000 Pickup

J2000 and J3000 trucks have been well-received on Barn Finds in the past, and based on this one’s solid yet sleepy appearance, I think we have another winning find here. It’s located in Salinas, California and is listed for… more»
