It Waits and Waits: 1957 Chevrolet 210 327 V8

Rebuilt/Refreshed: 1969 Dodge Dart Swinger 340

1990 Chevrolet Suburban V2500 Silverado 350 4×4

We’ve seen exactly one 1990 Chevy Suburban here on Barn Finds, and it was seven years ago. It was also a rear-wheel drive version, which this 1990 Chevrolet Suburban V2500 Silverado is most definitely not. This lifted, upsized-wheel 4×4… more»

Parked in ’90: 1969 Oldsmobile Cutlass S Convertible

Second-Generation Project: 1969 Dodge Charger

Real Renegade? 1981 Jeep CJ-7

I always admire sellers who don’t try to list a classic as something that it isn’t. This 1981 Jeep CJ-7 is a perfect example of that approach. It wears the stripes and decals of a Renegade, but the seller… more»

Stored 35 Years: 1966 Ford Mustang Ragtop

The 1966 Ford Mustang has a place in my heart because I had one during my high school and college years. Mine was a coupe, but it had the same 200 cubic-inch 6-banger this one has, and it was… more»

Rumble Seat Fun: 1938 Chevrolet Master Deluxe Cabriolet

Although I have been fortunate enough to slip behind the wheel of many classics in my time, one experience remains on my automotive Bucket List. I have never ridden in a rumble seat. However, with my body becoming less… more»

Celebrity-Owned Fox: 1990 Saleen Mustang #144

This 1990 Saleen Mustang is already a collectible piece of Fox-body history, but its celebrity ownership makes it even more desirable—it reportedly belonged to baseball legend Ken Griffey Jr. Showing just 44,000 original miles, this Saleen is said to… more»

2 for 1 Projects: Pair of Batmobile Replicas

Rough Ragtop Project: 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air

Of all the cars of the 1950s that are still in demand, the Chevrolet “Tri-Fives” of 1955-57 have to top the list. With sales of early five million copies when new, the universe of survivors in 2025 isn’t small,… more»

Eight Seater? 1993 Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser S

The difference one letter makes is apparent here on this woodgrain-less 1993 Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser S. The SL was a step up, at least as far as stick-on woodgrain goes, but it’s hard to argue with the crisp, clean… more»

330K-Mile E58 Car? 1975 Dodge Charger SE 360

Made in Windsor, Ontario, Canada, this Deep Sherwood Metallic green 1975 Dodge Charger SE would be a fun car for anyone’s collection, no matter which side of the border you’re on. It isn’t a second-gen Charger, the hot-ticket car,… more»

Rebuilt 440 V8: 1972 Plymouth Road Runner

The 1972 model year was not a good one for muscle car fans. Emissions detuning was in full swing, so compression ratios were down. And engine output was now measured as SAE net, so horsepower looked even less impressive…. more»

Restore Or Drive? 1968 Pontiac LeMans Convertible

Here’s a 1968 Pontiac LeMans convertible that presents a few good possibilities, one of which is that it’s only a single component away from becoming a fun driver.  On the other hand, it could also benefit from a thorough… more»
