The Milk Man’s Midget Racer

As I was on the hunt for an interesting motorcycle to feature, I came across the most interesting of finds! It clearly isn’t a motorcycle, although it is powered by a Cushman motor. This 1960’s midget racer looks like it could… more»

1971 Shala Vette: Custom Built Hardtop?

I’ve seen a number of Shala Vettes, but this is the first hardtop I’ve ever come across. If you don’t know what a Shala Vette is, they were kit cars built in the ’60s and ’70s by Dick Dean… more»

1969 Velorex: Three Wheeled Rarity

The popularity of the recently re-imagined Morgan 3-wheeler has spurred a new generation of owners who throw caution to the wind to practically sit on the ground with the handling qualities like only a 3-wheeled vehicle can deliver. But… more»

1968 Cadillac: Six Wheeled Luxury

I’m often left asking why when I see cars like this! Now don’t get me wrong, I think this custom Caddy is quite incredible and I would love to have a closer look at it, but I can’t help… more»

Messerschmitt Motherload

Of all the micro cars we have featured over the years, the Messerschmitt has to be one of my favorites. I just love the quirky styling, simplistic engineering, and the aircraft inspired steering wheel. If you too are a… more»

1968 Corvette Monster Truck!

While I was attending college at the University of Wyoming, I would often see a Ranchero that clearly had the chassis, engine, and 4×4 system from an large truck installed under it. I often laughed at it (especially when the… more»

Grounded Jet: 1987 Pulse

We thank Barn Finds reader KCapley for continuing the series of unusual finds we’ve been featuring lately by sending us this Pulse. We covered one a long time ago, so based on the manufacturing figure in the ad for this one,… more»

One Seater! 1981 Freeway

100 miles per gallon from a classic car? I guess that may depend on your definition of “car”! This Freeway has the less powerful 12 horsepower Tecumseh engine (versus the optional 16 hp that only got 80 mpg) and is located… more»

1981 XK1 Tri-Hawk: Never Seen One

What’s that you say? You’d like to ride a motorcycle but you don’t want to get wet from the rain or bugs in your teeth? Well, have we found a solution for you. Called the XKI Tri-Hawk, this curiosity… more»

1960 Chevrolet Impala: Stageway 12 Seater

Jim S recently pointed out to us just how many project cars the Barn Finds staff currently has and I have to admit, our passion maybe turning into an obsession. I’d contend that it is a good thing, but my… more»

1970 Excalibur SS: Acquired Appreciation

Have you ever spent years being completely turned off by a car only to one day wake up and think – “Eh, it’s not so bad”? Well, that’s what has happened to me as it pertains to this 1970 Excalibur… more»

1959 Peugeot 203c: Conventional French

When I think of French cars, I typically think of tiny cars with odd angles and quirky looks, but when I saw this Peugeot that Mike H found here on eBay, I was surprised by how conventional it actually looks…. more»

Poor Man’s Porsche: 1985 Skoda Rapid

And now for something completely different! (imagine the Monty Python theme playing in the background). I don’t know if this qualifies as a barn find, but it’s certainly different! It’s a rear engined, water-cooled, rear-wheel-drive car! The owner lives in Arizona… more»

1962 Sabra Sussita: Israel’s First

We have featured a few of the fiberglass bodied Israeli built Sabras over the years, but this is the first time we’ve featured one that isn’t a sports car. But that’s probably because these tiny fiberglass micro wagon is… more»

Very Hot Hatch: 1975 Corvette Sport Wagon

We have featured a few of these Corvette Sport Wagons in the past, so when Robert R. sent this one in I knew we needed to give it a mention. Well, that and the fact that the seller has… more»

1989 Isuzu I-Mark: Steering By Lotus

When I think of Isuzus, the last thing I think of is performance, but they have actually made some interesting and fun little cars! Take this I-Mark, while it is based on the somewhat mundane Gemini, it could be… more»
