Willys-Overland Motors was founded in 1908 in Toledo, Ohio, which is where Jeep production is still located in the U.S., over 100 years later. This 1949 Willys Jeep Pickup 4×4 may surprise you once you dig into it a… more»
Survivor Cars
Not all barn finds are rusty! Here are the very best unrestored classics:
Original Paint? 1951 Studebaker Commander Land Cruiser
Maybe it’s dramatic to say, but I don’t think my life will be completely fulfilled until I own something made by Studebaker, that plucky independent from South Bend, Indiana. Just look at how gutsy this 1951 Commander Land Cruiser… more»
Chappy Red Survivor: 1981 Yamaha DT175
While similar to Yamaha’s DT125, the company’s DT175 was 50 better (in my best Nigel Tufnel from Spinal Tap voice). No, an easy way to tell them apart is that the DT175 was Chappy Red and the 125 was… more»
Summer-Driven: 1998 Mercury Grand Marquis LS
While maybe not an exciting car for many buyers, especially 28 years after it was made, the 1998 Mercury Grand Marquis LS is still an impressive car. Its lack of post-2000s technology is a big selling point for me…. more»
Only One in the US? 1977 Ford Transit
The Ford Transit has been in production throughout the world since 1965. The first generation was on the assembly line until 1977, including this rare pickup truck that was built by Ford of Europe. Using left-hand rather than right-hand… more»
Corvette Chassis: Inexpensive 2005 Cadillac XLR
We’ve seen three Cadillac XLRs here on Barn Finds over the last few years. It’s hard to believe they’re old enough to be considered even remotely a vintage vehicle. What I wouldn’t give to be 21 years younger. This… more»
Eddie Bauer Survivor: 1994 Ford Bronco 4×4
The colors of this 1994 Ford Bronco 4×4 Eddie Bauer Edition decode to Medium Palomino over Light Santa Fe, according to the data plate in the photo gallery. The seller says it’s “two-tone paint copper orange With sandstone bottom.”… more»
Inexpensive 1956 Pontiac 870 Four-Door Sedan
This 1956 Pontiac 870 Four-Door Sedan was made in – wait for it – Pontiac, Michigan, believe it or not! I know, right? There were eight GM plants making cars in 1956, but the letter P in the VIN… more»
Flintstone Floors: 1976 Chevrolet C20 Scottsdale
$2,000 or best offer? For a truck this nice-looking in 2026?! You can’t get nothin’ (as they say) in 2026 for two grand anymore, vehicle-wise, especially a vintage red-hot Chevy square body pickup. I predict this one won’t last… more»
60k-Mile Survivor? 1967 Buick Skylark
In 1967, if you wanted a mid-size automobile from Buick, you had three choices: the entry-level Special, the mid-range Skylark, and the Skylark Gran Sport, a fancy muscle car. A variety of body styles were available, including this 2-door… more»
Drives Like New: 1988 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS
Until recently, this 1988 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS had been part of the same family since Day One. Its overall presentation carries the hallmarks of a classic that has always been treated respectfully. The fact that the seller claims… more»
Rebuilt AW11: 1989 Toyota MR2
A first-generation Toyota MR2 always gets attention, but this 1989 example listed on craigslist brings a slightly different angle. Located with a clean title and showing just 1,000 miles on the odometer, the seller describes it as a fully… more»
Peddling Memories: Vintage Schwinn Varsity
I bet a lot of Barn Finds readers have owned a Schwinn Varsity, or knew a relative, friend, or neighbor who had one. I still have my Opaque Blue Varsity from 1974 that I got new. It was a… more»
Signature Series Survivor: 1992 Lincoln Continental
Having traveled just over 47,000 miles over the last 34 years, this 1992 Lincoln Continental Signature Series has reportedly been lovingly maintained by the seller’s family, and they have done a lot of maintenance on it in the last… more»
Luxury AWD Survivor: 1999 Audi A8 Quattro
While over 2.5 decades old now, this 1999 Audi A8 4WD luxury sedan is a nice compromise for folks who are overwhelmingly tired of the level of electronics and other media screens, WiFi nannies, and other often-glitchy stuff in… more»
