Not all barn finds are rusty! Here are the very best unrestored classics:
Paid in Full: 18,000 Mile ’82 Chevy S10

29 Year Owner: 1982 AMC Eagle SX/4
If there’s one slice of American car history I can get behind, it’s a 4WD coupe that was as capable on pavement as it was off-road. The AMC Eagle SX/4 was an oddball from the start, but that didn’t… more»
$8,900 Bargain? 1948 Kaiser Special
Believe it or not, at least for the late-1940s, Kaiser cars featured a low center of gravity. Today, most of us can’t imagine a car like this as being modern or as having breakthrough features like that, especially given… more»
