Numbers Matching Project: 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu

In 1972, the Chevy Chevelle was still one of America’s best-selling cars. More than 207,500 Malibu Sport Coupes were built with a V8 engine, including the seller’s car. And, refreshingly, it’s not been taken down the path of a… more»

Drive Or Restore? 1973 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu

The new Colonnade styling was all the rage at GM back in 1973, with the Chevrolet Chevelle getting a fresh body to begin its third generation of production.  This is one of those cars that got a bit sleeker-looking… more»

Four-Speed 1967 Chevrolet Camaro RS Convertible

Some may find it irreverent, but I’ve never been head-over-heels with the 1969 Camaro. I much prefer the original 1967 model; it’s always seemed just a little swoopier in the quarter panels, and the RS grille projects a vaguely… more»

Honda Valkyrie Tryke: 1969 Chevrolet Camaro

Here’s what has to be a one-of-a-kind. A 1998 Honda Valkyrie motorcycle converted into a 3-wheel tryke that looks like a 1969 Chevy Camaro (from the front). We’d love to know how and why this was done, but –… more»

327/5-Speed: 1968 Chevrolet Camaro

If you’re the type of enthusiast who focuses more on a purely enjoyable ownership experience than searching for a completely original classic, this 1968 Chevrolet Camaro is worth a close look. It presents well, has no obvious major problems,… more»

Trailer Find: 1972 Chevrolet Monte Carlo

Chevrolet introduced the Monte Carlo in 1970 as its foray into the personal luxury car segment of the market. Other GM divisions had been fielding entries for years like the Pontiac Grand Prix and Buick Riviera. It was very… more»

Split Window Tribute: 2006 Chevrolet Corvette Z06

We’ve seen numerous modified Chevrolet Corvettes over the years here at Barn Finds, with the end results ranging from mild to wild.  This 2006 Chevrolet Corvette started life as a Z06, making over 500 horsepower right from the factory. … more»

348 V8 Some Mods: 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air Nomad

The Chevy Nomad nameplate is usually associated with iconic 2-door Sport Wagons of 1955-57. But Chevrolet would apply the moniker to 4-door wagons from 1958 to 1961 and again from 1968 to 1972 (as Chevelles). From Gorham, New Hampshire,… more»

Bare Bones Classic: 1964 Chevrolet Biscayne

Although its name implies something swankier (like the bay in Florida), the Biscayne spent its 18 years in the Chevrolet portfolio at the bottom of the totem pole. Launched in 1958 when Chevy redesigned its automobiles, it remained below… more»

BF Auction: 1966 Chevrolet Caprice 396

Like a number of models, the Caprice started life as a trim level, specifically the Impala. The option made the already comfortable Impala a true luxury cruiser. In 1966, it was introduced as its own model and could be… more»

Former Racer: 1965 Chevrolet Chevelle Project

It’s been decades since this 1965 Chevrolet Chevelle has seen any track action, but this one served as a vintage racer back in the day, although it’s now out of commission and has been sitting in a garage for… more»

No Rust Survivor: 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle

Some classics leave potential buyers with decisions to make. Such is the case with this 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle. The seller describes it as a rust-free vehicle, and its presentation is good enough to justify preservation as a genuine survivor…. more»

V6 Survivor: 1981 Chevrolet Malibu Classic

When Chevrolet redesigned its mid-size Chevelle in 1978, they dropped that moniker and went with Malibu all the way. The Malibu had previously been the Chevelle’s top-of-the-line model. A downsizing was part of the process to help make the… more»

Rare Color: 1988 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible

Chevrolet offered 1988 Corvette buyers a choice of eleven single-shade paint colors and, as is typical, some proved significantly more popular than others. This ’88 Convertible features one of the rarer colors, and it is interesting because it changes… more»

Low Mileage 5-Speed: 1985 Chevrolet Camaro Z28

It’s always interesting to see a car with a Buy-It-Now slowly creep towards that target price with incremental bidding. In some ways, I see it as an indication of real-world interest in a particular model, as cars that never… more»

One-Owner 1979 Chevrolet Impala Wagon

It’s a fair bet that many of us here at Barn Finds have at least one experience with a 1977-1979 Chevrolet. My aunt and uncle owned one, an orange ’77 Caprice Classic wagon with wood sides. A high school friend… more»
