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

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»

Low Mileage 5-Speed: 1985 Chevrolet Camaro Z28

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»

11k Original Miles: 1969 Chevrolet Camaro

Amazing Garage Find: 1966 Chevrolet Corvette

No Reserve Survivor: 1973 Chevrolet Blazer 4×4

How many car designs were so right upon their introduction that any changes made would simply be for the sake of change? I’m thinking of the ’40 Continental, the ’66 Toronado, and the Lamborghini Miura, but might I also… more»

52k Mile 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 454 LS5
