Fun Personified: 1970 Datsun 1600 Roadster
Nothing compels me to write up a car from the many listings we see at Barn Finds more than a good set of photos. We’re not asking for Ansel Adams here; we just want to see the basics in… more»
Parked In ’87: 1975 Toyota Celica ST
What to make of Toyota’s Celica? It seems that it was Toyota’s pitch to get into the pony car segment. It was similar in concept to the Camaro and Mustang but with a typical Japenese twist – using four-cylinder… more»
25 Years Owned: 1991 Acura NSX
The Acura NSX has long been a desirable supercar with the unusual benefit of sporting Honda mechanicals that also make it one of the most budget-friendly models you can buy. That being said, this reliable reputation almost worked against… more»
No-Reserve JDM: 1967 Datsun 411 SSS “Bluebird” Two-Door
Which sport sedan did you grow up with? The Austin Mini of the late 1950s and early 1960s? Or were you more familiar with the Alfa Guilia Ti? Most of us know the sensational BMW 2002, arriving in 1968…. more»

Not A Moped: 19XX Suzuki FA50

Pristine M Edition: 1995 Mazda Miata
The M Edition Mazda Miata is one of the best versions of the classic, entry-level roadster. While every special edition model deserves to go under the microscope to assess its true value, Mazda actually put together a fairly compelling… more»

This 1990 Kawasaki Jet Mate has a surprise hidden in the engine compartment, a Kawasaki 800 SX-R, a nice upgrade over the original 650 engine. It can be found listed (not listing, as in tilting to one side in… more»
Around-Town Tiddler: 1966 Honda S65
It’s hard to pin down the official name of these little “sport” bikes, although the name sport is somewhat deceiving, too. Honda referred to them as S65, CS65, Sport 65, 65 Sport, and maybe more. This 1966 Honda S65… more»
Race Developed: 1975 Yamaha RD350 Cafe Racer
Yamaha’s naming system can be a head-scratcher at times. I’m a big Yamaha fan, have owned a couple of them since the 1970s, and have books about Yamahas, but I don’t even know what some of the initials refer… more»
11K-Mile Time Capsule! 1986 Isuzu P’up
