Barn finds are an exciting prospect for any classic car enthusiast. Right now, there could be an all-original, nicely preserved classic car sitting under a layer of dust in a barn, shed, or garage. And if you're the first one to find it, you might be able to rescue and restore it without spending as much as you would during an auction or typical private-party sale. But what if you found a barn that didn't just contain one or two cars, and instead contained dozens? That's exactly what the team at Hagerty revealed in a recent video of a 90,000 square foot farm they referred to as "barn find heaven."

Pebble. This one word has abundant meaning for avid golfers. The same is true for those who have a passion for vintage automobiles. The Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance is the pre-eminent concours vintage car show on this great planet that we somehow manage to cohabitate. Classic Industries was at this prestigious event this year to cover all of the glorious action for the 73rd celebration on Sunday, August 18, 2024.

Putting a big and powerful engine into a small car is a high-performance recipe that's been popular since the earliest days of the automobile. In the 1920s and '30s, racecar builders installed huge aircraft engines into their vehicles, and in the 1940s, hot rodders crammed flathead V8s into their stripped-down "T-buckets." By the late 1960s, the introduction of the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro launched a new era of performance cars. True to form, a handful of enthusiasts began searching for a way to equip them with the most potent engines available. This is how Yenko, Baldwin, Nickey, and others began equipping the first-gen Camaro with the 427ci big-block V8.

Classic Industries was at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca to witness and celebrate 50 years of vintage auto racing history with the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion 2024. When Classic Industries' humble scribe (namely me) learned about this vintage racing extravaganza, he knew where he wanted to be from August 14 through August 17, 2024.

"I guarantee you one thing: when I'm gone, he'll drive it. Drive the wheels off of it! That's what it's all about," said Basil Ford as he smiled at his grandson Sawyer. Basil is the owner of this stunning 1970 Dodge Charger 500 SE, which was recently reviewed by Mike Musto as part of Hemmings' TESTED video series. In this episode, Musto takes a closer look at the details of this almost completely stock muscle car and considers how it holds up more than 50 years after it rolled off a Dodge assembly line.

Some American muscle cars you can just stare at into infinity. You don't even need to drive them to fall in lust with them. Such is the case with one ever so lovingly restored, maintained, shown, and driven 1958 Chevy Impala convertible.

Even for those of us who love to take on DIY restoration projects, there are certain tasks that can seem a little too daunting. Rewiring a car is one such project, since it's all too easy to get tangled up in a rat's nest of loose wires or frustrated while troubleshooting connections. Thankfully, companies such as American Autowire have simplified the process by providing complete wiring harness update kits for classic cars. In a recent issue of All Chevy Performance, the team shows how to rewire a second-gen 1971 Camaro, plus install lights and a new battery.

The Ford Mustang captured the hearts of millions around the U.S. and all over the globe when she burst onto the scene on April 17, 1964. When the redesigned 1967 Mustang emerged off the assembly line, pony car fans had a sequel that many felt was even better than the premiere offering. By decoding the '67 Mustang's data plate and VIN code, we'll be able to discern what makes these babies such an automotive icon, and perhaps even an improvement over the original galloping automotive icon. Read on for our complete 1967 Mustang VIN decoder, list of paint colors and engine options, and more fun facts.
