This lost British treasure trove contains vintage treasures such as AC, MG, Lotus, and many other items.
We can categorize barn find vehicles in two types. One is cars that are almost original and the other is cars that require full restoration. This video will focus on the second type. We have to admit that what you will see will make you sad.
Although the video description does not give much information about where this barn find is located, the accents, vehicle number plates and old road signs suggest that it is in the UK. One of our British colleagues believes that the host’s accent comes from the Birmingham/ Midlands region. However, this doesn’t help to pinpoint the location of the find.
The host of the channel leads us through a forest that was once a road in the first half. A few signs on the road hint at the past ten years, and finally, we see an abandoned granary. The team is greeted by a green and almost-driveable Nissan Almera, but it’s far from the most interesting vehicle.
After the cameraman takes a look around, we see some Porsche 911s sat in silence and a blue Porsche356 in a very sad condition. These cars are most likely in right-hand configuration. This means that they were probably purchased new in the United Kingdom. Some cars have interiors while others have extensive rust.
Wait, this is not the best part. A few Jaguars lead us to the UK’s automotive scene, where Lotus, Bentley and Sunbeam-Talbot are also present.
You can also see less-common metal. It’s a racy looking thing, sporting an AC badge and clearly identifiable Wolseley II 18/85.
Even a large decal can be seen on the trunk lid of a car from the 2004 Tulpen Rally, a vintage rally in the Netherlands. Race records indicate that this #65 car is a Renault Clio Williams, which unfortunately retired quite early.
We were unable to identify all of them, so we ask for your help in identifying some rare cars. We’d love to hear from you about what you have found or recognized.
