UPDATE – This truck saw some serious bidding and for good reason, but unfortunately, the winning bidder apparently flaked out. It’s now been relisted and this time with an $8,500 BIN and the option to make a lower offer…. more»

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

Captivating Chrysler: 1989 Chrysler Conquest TSI
While I’ve always felt that the 1980s produced some of the best-styled performance cars, I’ve also consistently felt that Mitsubishi’s Starion was one of the most attractive in the category. Various different automakers sold the Starion, with this 1989… more»

Sport Model! 1988 Yugo GVX
Call me crazy, but I want this Yugo! Being a GVX means that it’s as tricked out as a Yugo can be. And while many of the changes are cosmetic, like the sweet sport seats and body kit, this… more»

33k-Mile Midship: 1987 Toyota MR2
Though Toyota’s MR2 has endured plenty of mimicry over there years (seriously, save your snap oversteer jokes), the lovable midship is becoming more desirable and valuable in the eyes of collectors. With that being said, this well-kept 1987 MR2… more»

Magazine Car: 1984 Pontiac Trans Am
This 1984 Pontiac Trans Am is a former magazine feature car that remains in a nicely preserved state with some desirable options. Mileage is a tick below 50,000 and the paint looks quite nice – I especially like the… more»

Gold Edition: 1988 Alfa Romeo Milano
If I were more adventurous, I’d dip a toe into the well of Italian car ownership with an Alfa Romeo Milano, as seen here in rust-free condition with under 70,000 miles. The Milanos were a compelling alternative to the… more»

Moonbuggy Survivor: 1977 AMC Pacer
Clean, original, and potentially low mileage, this 1970’s Moonbuggy on wheels is a clean survivor that is ready to take to strange faraway lands. The Pacer was given many nicknames, but Moonbuggy seems the most fitting to me for… more»

Bear Damage: 1976 International Scout II
There aren’t many vehicle owners who can say that their truck has had bear damage. Maybe dog damage from locking fido inside and then chewing ensues. Most of us are afraid of rodent damage on our vehicles but this… more»

55,000 Mile Survivor: 1963 Studebaker Avanti R-1
The Studebaker Avantis come up for sale with some regularity, but more often that not, they are the less desirable later cars or fairly haggard R-1 projects. This example is neither of those, as it’s a desirable R-1 in… more»

Vintage Racing Ready: 1965 Chevrolet Corvette
Old race cars are some of the coolest barn finds there are, especially when they wear period race garb like this 1965 Chevrolet Corvette. The seller claims it was locked away for several years just the way it was… more»

One Owner Driver? 1967 Chevrolet Corvette
Who doesn’t dream of finding an original low mileage C2 Corvette from the original owner? Well it seems to be what we are looking at with this ’67 Coupe. Little information is given on the car, but the photos… more»

Ready To Restore: 1975 Chevrolet Vega Cosworth
By the mid-1970s, American car makers were really beginning to hurt. A combination of tightening emission regulation saw the muscle car segment begin to shrink as performance figures dwindled, much to buyer dismay. Further compounding this pain was the… more»

European Model? 1969 Opel GT 1.1L
It’s fun to see such a nice example of a 1969 Opel GT as this one. For any small car to have rear-wheel-drive is a treat for me since almost every vehicle is front-wheel-drive or AWD now. Small cars… more»

One of 544: 1987 Chevy Camaro Z28 Convertible
To some extent, the listing for this 1987 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 convertible gets into the weeds of what makes a car rarer than the next, or when options begin to make a vehicle a one-of-nine or other variables that… more»

Ragtop Oval: 1955 Volkswagen Beetle
Since the listing says nothing about a repaint, I have to believe this is at least a partially original oval window Volkswagen Beetle. It looks too good to be true, but given bidding is over $15K with several days… more»

Parked For 10 Years: 1982 DeLorean DMC-12
To me, DeLoreans are a conundrum. I get that there’s a loyal fan base, but their values seem to fluctuate greatly depending on whether there’s a buyer in the room who has decided this is the week to own… more»
