Not all barn finds are rusty! Here are the very best unrestored classics:
Mopar Pickup! 1969 Dodge D-100 Sweptline

Two-Owner Survivor: 1981 DMC DeLorean
Ah, the DeLorean Motor Company. Where to start? If you wrote a movie script revolving around a fictitious fledgling car company headed by a charismatic individual trying to create an exclusive sports car that was hurriedly designed, horribly engineered,… more»
Spotless 1991 Ford LTD Country Squire
Let’s be honest; the full-sized station wagon is undoubtedly dead. Minivans and SUVs sounded their death knell, and there’s no evidence that manufacturers are considering reintroducing them any time soon. That’s a shame because they offered buyers unrivaled versatility… more»
8,000 Mile Survivor: 1981 Porsche 924 Turbo

Back to Black: 1988 Lotus Esprit Turbo
Say hello to trouble. This 1988 Lotus Esprit Turbo is located in Hixson, Tennessee, and is advertised here on eBay. $24,900 takes it home, though this isn’t the kind of car you’d introduce to your mother.

Bubbletop Beauty! 1961 Chevrolet Impala

1 of 112: 1986 Buick LaSabre Grand National
Muscle car buffs are familiar with the Buick Grand Nationals of 1982-87 based on the mid-size Regal. But lesser known is the one-year iteration of the GN on the full-size LaSabre platform in 1986. That happened because NASCAR wanted… more»
1 of 1? 1999 Pontiac Firebird SLP Firehawk

396-Powered 1965 Chevrolet Caprice
1965 was a banner year for Chevrolet in overall sales (2,383,504 cars sold, including 1,617,614 full-size models) and, in my opinion, styling. It also marked the first year Chevrolet strayed out of its lane to test the luxury car… more»
