Some British sports cars don’t sell for big money, making them affordable for enthusiasts on a budget. That could potentially be the case with this 1979 MGB. It is an extraordinarily tidy vehicle with no obvious needs. The owner… more»
Survivor Cars
Not all barn finds are rusty! Here are the very best unrestored classics:
LS5 454 4-Speed: 1971 Chevrolet Corvette

Special Order Paint: 1968 Ford Mustang GT
One potential drawback of owning a First Generation Ford Mustang is that its high production numbers can make it hard to find one that genuinely stands out in a crowd. However, this 1968 GT achieves that goal, courtesy of… more»
19k Miles: 2-Owner 1990 Avanti 4-Door
Although the original Studebaker Avanti barely lasted two years, its independent successor – the Avanti II – lived on for another three decades. After Studebaker collapsed in South Bend, a couple of dealers pooled their resources, bought some equipment… more»
One Family Owned: 1962 Ford Thunderbird
Non-enthusiasts sometimes struggle to understand how a classic car can become a cherished family member. However, it happens, and choosing to part with that vehicle can be a genuinely wrenching experience. However, that moment has come for this 1962… more»
Original 400/4-Speed: 1969 Pontiac Trans Am
I have always struggled to pick my favorite classic from the 1960s. I consider the decade the high-water mark in automotive history, with a huge range of genuine icons emerging to tempt potential buyers, both then and now. Take… more»
Air-Cooled Van: 1963 Chevrolet Greenbrier

One-Owner: 1966 Dodge D100 V8/4-Speed
Said to be a one-owner truck that has stayed with that owner since it was bought new 60 years ago (!), there is reportedly no bodywork, no new paint, no new nothin’. I mean, anything. Even the camper shell… more»
BF Auction: 1987 Winnebago Chieftain N22RC
This find must have taken up the entire barn it was parked in! At 22 feet long, it’s certainly not the longest RV you could have bought in 1987, but we wouldn’t call it small. It was pulled out… more»
Perfect Balance? Two-Owner 1956 Chrysler Windsor Sedan
While Forward Look Chrysler fans may dream of finding a 300B in a barn, or perhaps a New Yorker St. Regis hardtop, it was the base Windsor that did the heavy lifting at the company that Walter P. founded…. more»
Recent Big Spend: 1963 Pontiac Catalina Convertible
One lesson I have learned is that project builds can sometimes develop a life of their own. Costs can quickly spiral out of control, and you only begin to realize this when you tally up the invoices. Such is… more»
28k-Mile Survivor: 1975 Ford Gran Torino
The third generation of the Ford Torino arrived in 1972 and ran through 1976, after which the mid-size cars were rebranded. The 1975 editions would be little changed and gained catalytic converters like every other production American-built automobile. The… more»
Full-Track Vehicle Project: 1970 Ridge Runner ASV
“Hey, it’s spring, Scotty G. Why are you showing a vintage snowmobile?!” That’s a very good question, and my argument is that some folks restore snowmobiles in the summer and restore motorcycles in the winter. This is a fantastic… more»
BF Auction: 1977 AMC Hornet Survivor
This 1977 American Motors Hornet is a rear-wheel-drive sedan powered by a 232ci inline-six paired with a three-speed TorqueFlite 904 automatic transmission. Finished in Golden Ginger Metallic, the car is said to retain approximately 80% of its original paint… more»
