Sienna Orange Survivor: 1974 AMC Gremlin X

Is there a better color for a 1974 AMC Gremlin X than Sienna Orange? I think not. Even with 59,000 miles, this is the nicest Gremlin that I’ve seen and the seller has provided some of the best all-around… more»

Price Slashed: 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z28

Update 09/27/2024: It is often said that he who hesitates is lost, but that isn’t the case with this 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z28. It appears the seller didn’t taste success last time we saw this classic, so they are… more»

One Owner 18k Miles! 1985 Chevrolet Caprice Classic

The Caprice is one of Chevrolet’s most venerable nameplates. It was applied to a luxurious version of the Impala in 1965 and became a series of its own the next year – and stuck around for the next 50… more»

No Reserve 1967 Pontiac Firebird 400

UPDATE 09/27/2024: We’re seeing another spate of non-paying buyers crossing our desks at Barn Finds, and such is the case with this 1967 Pontiac Firebird. However, sometimes that cloud can have a silver lining for the seller, which might… more»

37K Miles! 1997 Ford Ranger XLT 4×4 5-Speed

The seller isn’t kidding when they say this 37,297-mile 1997 Ford Ranger XLT 4×4 pickup looks like new. Other than a few scratches and chips in the paint inside the otherwise shiny pickup bed, this truck appears almost flawless…. more»

A Hupmobile Aerodynamic and a Car ID Test

It is almost a given that when archaeologists stumble upon the remains of a literate society, they have a limited number of written words to decipher.  To be fair to our ancestors, carving symbols into stone or making your… more»

Rust-Free 1973 Dodge Charger With EFI Conversion

The further one strays from the 1968-70 epicenter of Dodge Charger popularity, the more reasonable the asking (and selling) prices become. The restyled 1971 Charger and its muscular engine options could never be called inexpensive, but the later ’73… more»

4-Speed Convertible: 1967 Oldsmobile Cutlass 4-4-2

With nearly 25,000 units sold during the 1967 production run, the Oldsmobile Cutlass with the 442 package remained a popular choice among muscle car connoisseurs, although that number climbed even higher the following year when the 4-4-2 became its… more»

Bicentennial Edition: 1976 Buick Century

Buick used the Century nameplate sporadically between 1936 and 2005. With the redesign of General Motors’ mid-size cars in 1973, the Century moniker was brought out of mothballs (it was last used in 1958). This was the period of… more»

Sloan Documented: 1972 Buick GS 455

There are few things more reassuring than certified documentation confirming that a classic is all that the seller claims. Mustang owners can call on the services of Kevin Marti, while Pontiac owners can rely on PHS. For those with… more»

Not Enough Room: 1978 Lincoln Continental Town Coupe

I have heard many reasons why an enthusiast might choose to part with a classic, but the one behind this 1978 Lincoln Continental Town Coupe is one of the more unusual. The seller purchased the car as an investment… more»

One-Owner 56k Mile 1988 Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe

Before I begin, I must admit to having a sweet spot for this car, having spent many of my formative days cruising around aimlessly in my dad’s hand-me-down Silver Metallic T-Bird with the Crown Vic-spec five-point-oh under the hood…. more»

Dirt Cheap! 1985 Cadillac Eldorado

If you have long harbored the desire to undertake a first restoration project but have worried about sinking thousands into purchasing a candidate, this 1985 Cadillac Eldorado may have ridden to your rescue. It saw active service until recently… more»

1 of 867: 1967 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396

The Chevelle SS 396 became one of the most popular mid-size muscle cars in the 1960s. Demand was enough to warrant the car’s promotion to series status in 1966.  About 63,000 of the hot rods were produced in 1967,… more»

Looks and Power! 1994 Chevrolet Corvette Callaway SuperNatural

Some cars represent a triumph of style over substance, with performance that doesn’t befit their looks. However, there are no such issues with this 1994 Chevrolet Corvette Callaway SuperNatural. The classy and sleek exterior is perfectly complemented by an… more»

Two Owner Barn Find: 1939 DeSoto DeLuxe

The interesting thing I find about cars from the era that produced this 1939 DeSoto was the various body styles that were available. Our subject car, discovered by T.J. is a two-door touring sedan but others were available and… more»
