This is my mother's recipe; she got it from one of her friends about 1950. Does that qualify as "old-fashioned"?
1 can kidney beans (rinsed and drained well)
1 can garbonza beans (rinsed and drained well)
1 can green beans (drained well)
1 can yellow/wax beans (drained well)
1 red or yellow pepper, seeded and sliced
Few thin slices of onion
Cover with:
1/2 cup vinegar
1/2 cup oil
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (more or less to taste)
Pepper to taste
Mix and allow salad to marinate overnight in refrigerator. (Any combination of beans is good; depends on what you like.)

Here is the one I use all the time. got it from "Favorite Recipes of Home Economics Teachers" cook book.
1 can green beans, drained
You can purchase 3-bean salad at the grocery store, much easier and it is delicious.
My Mom use to make this back in the 1950's.
