Not all barn finds are rusty! Here are the very best unrestored classics:

Original Paint: 1966 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Convertible
Some classics wear the tag of survivor without earning that honor. The seller sometimes uses that word despite the vehicle either being restored or modified. I take a fairly tough line on the subject, believing that only original and… more»

Twin-Stick Project: 1980 Dodge Colt
This 1980 Dodge Colt is a bit rougher around the edges than I originally thought when I saw it listed here on eBay yesterday. I love these little cars, and if rust isn’t an issue, this one could be… more»

Gorgeous Paint: 1984 Ford Bronco
When a seller uses the word “gorgeous” in a listing, it is a bold move. Sometimes, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but it seems appropriate when describing the paint on this 1984 Ford Bronco. Its interior… more»

Unmodified Survivor: 1977 Chevrolet El Camino
I’m not someone who names my vehicles, but the first owner of this 1977 Chevrolet El Camino named it “Ellie,” and it’s said to be original other than possibly some paint work on the bed portion. It was owned… more»

Senior-Owned Survivor: 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu
From its introduction in 1964, Chevrolet’s mid-size Chevelle would be a sales success for many years to come. The redesign from 1968 to 1972 was especially popular, which included the seller’s Malibu 4-door sedan. It was owned by two… more»

1987 Ford Ranger XLT 4×4 Turbo-Diesel 5-Speed
I have a bad habit of referring to vehicles as being box-checkers, as in having just about every feature or option that I’d ever want in a vehicle, usually a truck, since I’m heavily into pickups lately. This 1987… more»

Solid Gold: 1985 Dodge Mini Ram Van
This 1985 Dodge Mini Ram Van isn’t solid gold, of course. It isn’t even as Solid Gold as the 1980s dance party and variety show of the same name. But it is gold’ish inside and out, and the seller… more»

1988 Ford Bronco II XL Sport V6 5-Speed
I know I’m not the only one who laments the fact that there are very, very few small vehicles being made these days. If a person has several kids, I could see owning a giant SUV, but otherwise, the… more»

Bought In Europe: 1967 Volvo 122S
Volvo’s model 122 series had a VW Bug-like existence, in that its appearance barely changed between its introduction (1956) and its conclusion (1970). At the start, it had a typical in-the-flow design, but by the end, it looked dated…. more»

400/4-Speed: 1970 Pontiac GTO
We see a fair selection of Pontiac GTOs at Barn Finds, but this 1970 example caught my eye. It isn’t merely the drivetrain configuration and factory options that appeal, but the paint shade, which helps it to stand out… more»

39k Original Miles: 1970 Ford Maverick
This 1970 Ford Maverick caught my eye for several reasons. It is a one-owner vehicle with 39,000 original miles on the clock. It presents exceptionally well for a vehicle of this type and age, but it was the plans… more»

Exotic Hybrid: 2012 Fisker Karma EcoSport
A what?! We normally don’t show 2012 vehicles here on Barn Finds, especially ones that haven’t been in a barn for 14 years, but I blame it on Chuck F for sending in this unusual tip! This 2012 Fisker… more»
