Worth $2,600? 1964 Dodge D100 Sweptline

How Many Left? 1979 Chevy Monza Spyder

454/4-Speed: 1974 Chevrolet El Camino SS

Vehicles like this 1974 Chevrolet El Camino successfully manage to combine the versatility of a small pickup with the comfort and features of a sedan. They can also be unerringly boring…unless they are equipped as this one is. Selecting… more»

Rare Diesel: 1983 Ford Ranger Diesel

Imported SUV: 1994 Mazda Proceed Marvie

Low Mileage 5-Speed: 1984 Chevrolet Camaro Z28

This 1984 Chevrolet Camaro is a nicely preserved survivor that has recently emerged from long-term storage. Mileage is just under 80,000 and it is the preferred and somewhat hard-to-find 5-speed manual example. Paint looks pretty tidy, and there’s no… more»

French Diesel: 1979 Citroën CX 2500 Pallas

Bonjour. We have only featured a half-dozen Citroëns over the last six months here at Barn Finds, that has to be one of the lowest numbers of any major manufacturer seen here. Let’s bump up that number a bit… more»

Like New Coupe: 1984 Mercedes-Benz 500SEC

Classic Commuter? 1995 Toyota Camry LE

LS1 Transplant: 1976 AMC Pacer DL
