One of One: 1953 Fiat 8V by Ghia

Fiat is not associated with sublime cars. Mostly, you and I are thinking, “Fix It Again Tony” and picturing dwarfish sedans or troublesome spyders. But in the 1950s as Europe was accelerating away from the crater created by WWII,… more»

BF Auction: 1991 Pontiac Trans Am GTA

Pilot Dual-Quad: 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air

Rarity can sometimes be a relative term because it is possible that almost any car can make that claim due to a combination of optional extras. However, this 1956 Bel Air lays claim to that status and features the… more»

Unmolested Survivor: 1964 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe

Sometimes you only need to look as far as the bidding history of a classic car auction to determine its desirability. That is the case with this 1964 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe. The auction opened at $1,000 and took less… more»

No Reserve: 1951 Chevrolet 3100 Pickup

Finding a classic Pickup that is an ideal candidate for a project build can be challenging, especially one that is affordable. With values climbing, even the roughest examples can often command surprising prices. Occasionally, Pickups like this 1951 Chevrolet… more»

455 Model J: 1971 Pontiac Grand Prix

Last week we covered this 1972 Pontiac Grand Prix, a beautiful car with a somehow disappearing opera window -a mystery that I believe is still unsolved. Today, we’re going to review a very similar, one-year older, 1971 Model J… more»

Race, Refurbish, or Restore? 1970 Chevrolet Corvette

Nothing says “Super Seventies” like a C3 (third-generation Corvette) with flared fenders. This rough black roller has barely been touched since its purported days as a New York City street racer. Now located in Somerset, Kentucky, the 1970 Chevrolet… more»

Project Car Bonanza: Mercedes, BMW, and Porsche Collection

For a German car nerd like me, listings like these make me suddenly forget all of my other financial obligations and begin looking for cheap transporters heading northbound. I need another project car like I need multiple root canals,… more»

Lifted Long Roof: 1980 Chevrolet Impala Wagon

This is a Chevrolet Blazer Estate Wagon. Or, maybe it’s a Chevy Caprice 4×4. Well, it’s somewhere in between, and there has likely never been another one made like it since the night a few buddies got together with… more»

Race Ready? 1970 Datsun 1600

To compete with a wide variety of British-made sports cars, Nissan got into the fray in the 1960s with the Fairlady roadsters. Wearing Datsun badging in the U.S. (Fairlady doesn’t sound too manly), they proved more dependable than their… more»

Affordable: 1979 Pontiac Trans Am

We have covered several 1979 Trans Ams over the years here on Barn Finds and watched their prices increase almost every year. While 1979 was the highest production year for the Trans Am at over 117,000 units, their popularity… more»

Drive While You Fix! 1969 Oldsmobile Cutlass

Oldsmobile Cutlass station wagons, such as this 1969 example, make regular appearances here on BF. And it’s a bit surprising as the total production was light with only 8,700 copies produced – lasting Olds quality I guess. This one’s… more»
