A Dodge Charger is for many the best muscle car of all times, period. If you also add a series of extras, such as an all-original, unmolested example found in a barn, the excitement created by such a car suddenly goes through the roof. 25 photos
At the same time, such a combination is something you rarely find these days, especially because most cars that have been in storage for many years end up looking like genuine rust buckets that require a small fortune to be saved.
And yet, someone on eBay says they have a rare Charger that runs and drives good, despite being pulled from a barn where it’s been sitting for a while.
No car deserves the fate of the Impala we have here, and yet, this is how a classic automotive icon worth a small fortune eventually becomes a genuine rust bucket selling for pocket money.

The 318 is the engine powering the Dodge Dart GT we have here as well, with this 1968 all-original model recently found in a barn now ready for a new adventure.
The car comes in unrestored condition, and you can easily tell by simply looking at the photos in the gallery and the video embedded below. Painted in the factory-applied MM1 Turbine Bronze finish with a black top and interior, this Dart GT was born as an Ohio car but landed in Indiana back in 2012.
It’s pretty clear the car has seen better days, but on the other hand, there’s nothing that can’t be fixed with a thorough restoration process. There’s some rust, that’s true, but with the proper fixes, this Dart should be easily turned into the looker it was 53 years ago.

Impala eventually became a stand-alone model a year later when Chevrolet introduced the second generation, but for 1958, it was only available as a convertible or coupe in the Bel Air lineup.
The 1958 Impala that you see here is a living example of the original series, though as you’ll learn in a minute, it has already received a series of upgrades borrowed from newer Chevys.
While we won’t comment too much on what eyes can see, it’s pretty clear this ’58 Impala has seen better days; on the other hand, it doesn’t look that bad either. We’re not being told how much of the metal is still original, but eBay seller cordva-19 says they already installed a series of upgrades on the car, so whoever buys it only needs to continue this restoration process.

With production starting in September 1954, the Thunderbird quickly became one of the best-selling cars in the United States, as the first-year output totaled over 16,000 units. By 1957, which was the final year for the first generation, the output had already increased to over 21,000 units, all in an attempt to meet the growing demand for the Thunderbird.
And if you’re wondering what made this car so appealing for buyers in the States, you should just check out the example we have here.
Truth be told, this T-Bird has obviously seen better days, and the photos in the gallery pretty much speak for themselves. The Starmist Blue finish is no longer there, and the white interior has become just a comfortable place we can only imagine right now.
