I was a rabid Subaru fan a couple of years ago. I would have been such a serious bidder on this car that it may not even be showing up here on Barn Finds because I would have made… more»
Survivor Cars
Not all barn finds are rusty! Here are the very best unrestored classics:
Solid First Year: 1963 Buick Riviera
I was raised in a household where the majority of our family cars wore the blue oval badge, and I do admit that I will always have a soft spot for Ford products. However, from the moment that I… more»
Clean Californian: 1966 Ford Thunderbird
Classics like this 1955 Ford Thunderbird seem to pose that age-old question: Do you drive it as it currently stands, or do you treat it to a restoration first? Of course, you could always strike a compromise by undertaking… more»
39K Miles! 1986 Oldsmobile Toronado
The first year of the fourth-generation Toronado blew more than a few collective minds when it hit the market. The last generation cars were much smaller than the historic second-gen cars were and the new small version didn’t go… more»
50k Mile Survivor: 1979 Ford Bronco Ranger XLT
If Ford ever had any doubts that it was making the right move by introducing a 2nd Generation Bronco in 1978, then they only needed to look at the sales figures to realize that they had backed a real… more»
Museum Piece: 1985 Oldsmobile Calais Pace Car
The Oldsmobile Calais was a sleek, modern-looking upgrade from the previous year’s Olds Omega, a somewhat clunky-looking, blocky X-body car that lived up to its name as far as ending in 1984 (Omega = the last or the end)…. more»
Long Roof Survivor: 1984 Chrysler LeBaron T&C
While we may find them oddballs now, vehicles like this 1984 Chrysler LeBaron station wagon were considered somewhat high-brow back in the day. Loaded with luxury features and the iconic wood grain veneer up and down the sides, the… more»
Working Survivor! 1959 GMC NAPCO 4×4
If you aren’t familiar with the Northwest Auto Parts Company, it was founded in Minnesota and provided 4×4 conversions for numerous manufacturers beginning in the 1940s. We’ve featured several NAPCO 4×4’s here on Barn Finds over the years. Although… more»
1 of 300? 1974 Oldsmobile Toronado El Toro
A person almost expects to see bull horns on the hood of any car known as El Toro, but this 1974 Oldsmobile Toronado El Toro is devoid of bull horns, as no Toronado owner said. Ever. This unusual 1… more»
Southwest Survivor: 1941 Plymouth PT-125
I think we’ve only seen a couple of Plymouth pickups ramble through the hallowed halls of One Barn Finds Tower over the last few years. They’re really interesting and this looks like a nice example. This rust-free 1941 Plymouth… more»
One Owner With 22K Miles! 1981 Ford Thunderbird
This bird has a mere 22,000 miles on it, that’s crazy low for a car that’s almost 40 years old now. It may not be a “classic”, but this 1981 Ford Thunderbird is at least the idea of what… more»
Corvette Killer: 1964 Pontiac XP-833 Banshee Prototype
Update 4/20/2020 – After more than three years since we featured it, this Banshee prototype is still on the market. The dealer has now listed an asking price of $750k here on their site. Thanks go to Rocco B… more»
Memory Machine: 1981 Honda C70 Passport
The Honda Super Cub was known as the Passport in North America due to some trademark issues with aircraft manufacturer Piper. These small bikes are a good way for anyone to jump into the vintage motorcycle hobby and are… more»
Original Paint: 1977 Ford Bronco
It is pretty common to find 1st Generation Broncos where the steel has been cut to fit larger wheels and fender flares. That fate has not befallen this 1977 model, which is a clean and tidy example that is… more»
As New: 1979 Saab 900 Turbo
I have always felt that the fact that Saab managed to join so many great manufacturers that collapsed into bankruptcy was a crying shame. This is because they were a company that was capable of not only producing some… more»
