  • “You oughta go see Denny,” was the advice Tom Cotter kept hearing as he scoured northern Michigan’s countryside for forgotten classics. Fortunately, we know a few people in these parts and soon located this “Denny” of local lore. Tom was not disappointed. What started with two small garages holding a Buick Riviera, a Ford Falcon, and some Impalas, ended with two huge pole barns filled with cars. And Denny is ready to sell-for the right price.

    Thanks for the show. The 68 cuttlass and 48 chevy is what I'm talking about. The Buick was insane,what a collection. The guy was generous on his pricing. What a great guy for letting you take us all on a tour. Very cool thank you again and the gentleman that allowed us into his automobile world.

      Yea, That was my favorite in this video. The 58 Buick was a cool car. 58 was the last year of the taller heavily chrome laden GM cars. By 59, they adopted the flatter, lower, less chrome body style that would be the norm in the 60's. Love that Buick.
      Those old Nail Heads were also among the most reliable of all the GM engines.

    I just wanted to say I really enjoy these Barn Find videos you do, so much so that there's no car tv shows I've found that even come close! It would be great if they could be a bit longer, say 20 mins, as you've got a lot of knowledge and passion and it would be great to see more of the cars/trucks. Definitely subscribed!

    I owned a 1964 Riviera in 1972 , and back in 1972 a muffler alone was 150.00 , in todays money would be 894.00. I had trouble passing gas stations as well. Being 19 years old at the time, I was forced to sell it, not being able to do the proper care for it, and working for 1.25 an hour at the time.
