1974 Dodger Charger 440 Project
With Chrysler’s redesign of its B-bodied intermediates in 1971, the Charger took on an all-new look. That helped to lead to a record sales year in 1973. With few changes in 1974, sales dropped by more than one-third –… more»

Rare 1 of 10: 1965 Chrysler Imperial Stretch Limo

One-Year-Only: Rust-Free 1979 Chrysler 300
Leaving the factory, most 1979 Chrysler 300s were Spinnaker White, but around 30 or so were said to have been painted Rallye Red. I don’t know if I’ve seen a red one, but, pool or pond, either color works… more»

Tri-Five Project: 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air
This 1957 Chevrolet has gotten a few mods over the years, but from the looks of things, it’s probably been quite some time since this one’s seen much activity on the pavement. However, there are several positives here, such… more»

Last of the Real Cadillacs: 1973 Cadillac Coupe deVille
A frequent lament in the Barn Finds universe is that Cadillac lost its way and has never returned to the “Standard of the World” status that the brand enjoyed for decades. That may or may not be an unreasonable… more»

Rebuilt Land Yacht! 1974 Mercury Cougar XR7
When the Mercury Cougar debuted in 1967, it was a senior-level “pony car” to give FOMOCO two contenders in that market space. In 1971, the cat got bigger and began to shed its pony roots. Come 1974, it was… more»

1963 Pontiac Grand Prix 4-Speed Barn Find
I’ll cut to the chase: This 1963 Pontic Grand Prix is a great find, but it’s not presented all that well, so I’ll have to talk through the listing. Barn-bound in Manchester, Maryland, this GP seems to be “all… more»

No Reserve: Low-Mileage 1969 Oldsmobile Toronado
It’s healthy to come clean about one’s flaws; therefore, I’ll say it: I’m a Toronado snob. The brutally handsome 1966 Toronado is top ten, maybe top five, on my “list,” so I tend to look askance at its successors…. more»
