As we live here in the States, barn find automobiles are almost an everyday occurrence.
Rarely do I read about any in G.B.
I came across an article today of an old Lambo Espada being found.
Sweetness!
Well done Gents & Madames!
So, my question is, are barn finds a rare event over there?

Not exactly barn finds
But more yard garage or driveway finds
Form escorts to delta integrale to 205gti and things
Always the same story from the owners
It’s not for sale going to fix it up but never dose
Just left to rust
There’s a escort mk1 mexico not to far from me
In good condition 30-40k
This ones not but still worth 10k guy will not sell it been sitting in his back yard for years on bricks and everyone that’s offered him good money for it has been turned away with the exact same thing
It’s not for sale I fixing it up and putting it as a show car but never dose such a waste to be honest |

Love a good barn find love the Fast n Loud and Misfit garage crews exploits.
Noticed alot popped up over lockdown people getting rid of projects as lost jobs or mechanics business gone down.
Tempted by a 68 Ford Torino recently on Ebay. I'm really after a 1972 Ford Capri GT or 71 Vauxhall Victor FD. |

No one knows but it’s definitely a thought to people who have got a lot off money in them
Definitely think they become trailer queens and garage show peace’s at some point in the close future |

Okay!
The Capri as was offered to "The Isles" was fuckin' bitchin'!
Seems all the bangin' Fords were in the Isles or Aus.
I've never had the pleasure of even riding in a Vaux.
Would a 1958 V.W. Kombi or a 1970 Chevelle be a reasonable alternate?
C'mon!
Where are the Gear heads?!
