1937 Chrysler Royal, undisturbed since ’69

This 1937 Chrysler Royal found by reader Robert R is just how barn finds really look before a wash and a trailer. There’s no telling what might be under all that dirt. It’s in Tulare, California, generally a fairly dry place, so… more»

1926 Dodge Business Sedans: Pick One!

The value of older cars has dropped dramatically. I hope these historic cars are saved. Here’s an interesting example and choice, 2 1926 Dodge business sedans. One, the first picture, is a really nice survivor found by Charles H… more»

MaxiVan: 1977 Dodge Custom Van

Those of us of a certain age (50-60 now?) remember when having a custom van was the thing every young adult wanted. Wild color schemes, elaborate velour interiors, shag carpeting and wide wheels and tires were on everyone’s list. There seemed… more»

1957 Chevy Bel Air Wagon: Shorty Style

Would you attribute this shorty conversion to a weird sense of humor, too much spare time or….both? I’ve never understood what drove people to chop cars in half and weld them back together, but here we are: this Chevy… more»

One Owner For 37 Years: 1978 Mustang King Cobra

Mustang II’s always seem to bring out two very different opinions: one side feels the cars are a product of their time and recognizes that they have some good points, others feel that they are an embarrassing reminder of… more»

Shed Find: 1961 King Midget

When a car is this small, you don’t need a barn for storage–a shed will do! This tiny King Midget shows less than 5,000 miles from new, and for once I’m pretty sure the odometer hasn’t flipped! Unfortunately, time… more»

1959 Imperial Crown Southampton Survivor

Thanks to Robert for this find, a 1959 Chrysler Imperial Crown Southampton 4 door hardtop, a title almost as long as the car. It also has a large 413 cid with a 4 barrel to move it down. This is… more»

1963 Corvette Coupe: More Than A Split Window

I’m not sure if I should laugh or cry at this listing! The seller is asking $3,100 for the remains of this ’63 split window Corvette that was, wait for it… run over by an 18 wheeler! This sight… more»

1957 Lincoln Premiere: Hardtop Styling

The current owner of this 1957 Lincoln bought it in 1965 and drove it until 1973, when he put it in his garage for a 41 year nap. Lots of mechanical work has been done in the last year,… more»

1941 Packard 90: Open Top Tour Bus

We’ve seen some very interesting stretched vehicles, but this 1941 Packard 90 that was stretched to over 22 feet long has to be the most interesting yet! To put all that added space to good use a few more… more»

1978 Cadillac Eldorado: Sundays Only

This 1978 Cadillac Eldorado is a looker in white over blue, and it’s stayed in near-mint condition with only 14,000 miles on the clock. Sent in by Barn Finds reader Deahomes, the listing found here on craigslist for $12,950 in Grand… more»

1956 Continental Mark II Survivor

You don’t see many of these 1956 Continentals around and here’s a 2 door. They say it does run but don’t provide much more information than that. It looks complete and original. The asking of $22,000 seems high, but… more»

1976 Corvette Survivor In The UK

I love to surf eBay UK just looking at some of the interesting cars that we never got here in the States. Occasionally, I come across American classics that have made their way across the pond, but most have… more»

1973 Buick Riviera: Ready To Sail

A few months ago Jeff did a review on a Boat Tail very much like this Buick 1973 Riviera that was “rough around the edges”. If we are to believe the seller, this original Riviera is, well, smooth around the… more»

1977 Harley-Davidson XLCR: Cafe Style

Cool to look at – but not much else. That might be the spirit of Harley-Davidson’s foray into making a cafe-style sport bike, at least based on some reviews I’ve read of this XLCR listed here on eBay with… more»

On The Trailer: 1951 Kaiser Dragon

Yes, it’s my favorite pet peeve again, a flipper who doesn’t even take the car off the trailer to take pictures. I’m guessing since the ad states that this unusual Kaiser “runs well…drives and stops” but the taped message… more»
