We’re in a golden age for vintage vehicles. Aside from the usual Corvettes and Mustangs that have held collectible status for decades, a whole generation of Radwood-era rides is finally getting its due (see the skyrocketing prices on ’90s Hondas, for example), along with other cars and trucks that have suddenly become enthusiast icons. Browsing today’s lineup of online car auctions gives you a front-row seat to all the action—and a fun way to put one of these rides in your garage.
We scoured auction sites like Cars & Bids, Bring a Trailer, Hemmings, and more to put together a short list of some of the most intriguing vehicles up for grabs right now. See something you like? Bid on it. Not interested in our picks? Check back later—we’ll update this page with a fresh batch of car auctions every week.
The Best Car and Truck Auctions

1. 1997 Land Rover Defender 90
Want to get out and rip some donuts in the snow this winter? This Defender is just what you need. Originally sold in Italy, it was purchased and imported to Florida in August of last year, and although it’s seen quite a few miles (about 173,000), it’s in solid shape overall. The current owner refreshed the suspension, swapped in new tires, replaced the fuel pump, and had the truck undergo a thorough servicing—so it’s ready for many more miles of exploring.

2. 1992 Porsche 968
The 968 was the last in a decades-long line of water-cooled Porsches that began with the 924, which debuted in the mid-70s. Produced for just four years, it’s a rare model, and since this one was built for export to Japan, it comes with unique details like clear reverse lenses on the taillights. The professionally polished Cobalt Blue paint looks pristine, and with its iconic pop-up headlights and sleek fastback profile, it’s a real head-turner.
1992 Ford Taurus SHO Courtesy Image
3. 1992 Ford Taurus SHO
Some might see just a plain old Ford Taurus, but discerning buyers will take one look at the driver’s door and know that this car is something special. As the badging indicates, it’s a Taurus SHO, the high-performance edition of Ford’s family sedan. This second-gen model oozes rad-era cool, and with its Yamaha-built V6 paired with a five-speed manual, it’s outfitted in its best spec.
2008 Dodge Sprinter Courtesy Image
4. 2008 Dodge Sprinter
Always wanted to grab a van and turn it into a camper? Get this one—the work’s been done for you. This dually Sprinter features a cavernous interior with plenty of amenities, including a two-burner stove, sink, fridge, shower, and a queen-sized sleeping area. Time to start planning that summer camping trip.
1964 Bristol Lodekka Courtesy Image
5. 1964 Bristol Lodekka
After years of service hauling people around as a city bus, this double-decker Lodekka (the name refers to its lowered floor deck), was imported to the U.S. in the ‘90s. Since then it has lived a second life as a hotel shuttle in Oregon, and then it embarked on a third life as a mobile taproom for a brewery. What will you turn it into?
