The earliest Avantis – the ones made by Studebaker and featuring round headlights (not the round lenses sitting in square housings) – remain one of the ultimate bargains in collector cars today, in my opinion. Hard to find and… more»

Drop The Top: 1969 Pontiac Firebird
My grandfather was a lifelong loyal Pontiac man, so I like to think I have a little Pontiac in my blood. He was more partial to the Grand Prix and Bonnevilles of the era and as such was never… more»
“Essential Use” 1944 Indian Chief
During World War II, most U.S. manufacturing was geared toward the war effort and production for civilians was very limited. Some items were able to be siphoned off if they were considered “essential use.” Basically, if a law enforcement… more»
Cool Cruiser: 1959 Chevrolet El Camino
The next owner of this 1959 Chevrolet El Camino has some decisions to make. The vehicle is very original and is rust-free. It runs and drives well, so it could easily be left exactly as it stands. Alternatively, the… more»
Ready To Roll: 1965 Chevrolet Nova
A few years ago, this 1965 Chevrolet Nova sedan was treated to a restoration. It has been stored indoors ever since and has had little use. The owner has decided that the time is right for the Nova to… more»
Mostly Original: 1976 Buick Century Special Landau
The more uncommon or less liked a car is, the more I like it. That’s no exception here with this 1976 Buick Century Special. Each time I scroll through the photos, I like it a little more. This Special… more»
Rare 4WD: 1981 AMC Eagle Kammback
We don’t often see vehicles for sale that are actually being used as they were intended. Pickups are rarely hauling anything, station wagons rarely have families in them, and SUVs or other 4x4s are rarely shown off of paved… more»
Clean Camper: 1978 Airstream Argosy Minuet
After purchasing my 1981 Toyota HiAce and later acquiring a 1986 Isuzu Trooper, I began to explore the world of overlanding and camping across this great nation of ours. Along with that, as a gearhead, you start to notice… more»
Letting It Go! 53k Mile 1972 AMC Javelin SST 360
American Motors Corporation went bold with its entry into the hot Pony Car market, the Javelin. Name another car of this era with fender arches higher than its hood! When you’re one notch below “The Big Three,” polarizing styling… more»
Yellow Gold WS6: 1987 Pontiac Firebird Formula
Great colors can make or break a car. For me, seeing a Firebird Formula wearing this rarely seen (and hard to miss) shade of Yellow Gold paint transforms it from another ’80s muscle car in a crowded field of… more»
Camper Special Survivor: 1976 GMC Sierra 2500
Great colors are just the start of the desirable attributes of this 1976 GMC Sierra 2500, a Camper Special model that comes with all of the requisite upgrades necessary to hit the trails with all of your gear (and,… more»
Bubble-Top Project: 1961 Chevrolet Impala
There’s no denying it, I like ’60s vintage Impalas. I have owned several and its easy to see how GM garnered so much market share back in the early ’60s, with plenty of help from the Impala, that the… more»
Storm Chaser: 1992 GMC Typhoon
We’ve seen quite a few different types of Typhoons here at Barn Finds, including a 1948 Armstrong Siddeley Typhoon and, my favorite, a 1964 Rambler Typhoon. But, we’re here to see this 1992 GMC Typhoon. This budget storm chaser… more»
New York Nostalgia: 1958 Chevrolet “Bungalow Bar” Truck
It’s April right now, but as we look forward to warm summer days fast-approaching, it’s nice to think back to simpler days of our childhoods. This ’58 Chevy ice cream truck has seen better days, but for anyone who… more»
All Original: 1961 International Scout 80
Along with the first-generation Ford Bronco, the International Scout has to be one of the current “it” vehicles. The prices have relatively gone nutso (in my best Fonz voice) over the last few years and original examples like this… more»
BF Classified Find: 1969 Chevrolet C20
We see lots of classics that have been updated, upgraded and rat rodded. While some turn out great, not all of them are done nice enough to actually drive. Well, reader Travis A saved this Chevy C20 farm truck… more»
