Please check out Part Two - ua-cam.com/video/VnNhxlRGdEg/v-deo.html & the auction of these cars - ua-cam.com/video/vk5kZdLxCK4/v-deo.html Thanks for watching and a big HELLO to all our subscribers, new and old!
@UKBarnFinds From the USA, idk about that - all it takes is a plan, willingness & determination. By the looks of some of the steel structures on the back wall, clearly they were used in placing those cars there. AWESOME FIND/SAVE!! Kudos to the rigging & support crew as well, excellent teamwork!! Very much waiting for part 2, & 2 parting thoughts- 1- I'm very certain the guy who saved/placed them there decades ago is smiling from above, seeing those who understand their value now, extract them(how's that for foresight?). 2- As the Jag E coupe, AC #1 were being rolled onto the trucks, I for one, REALLY did appreciate the James Bond esque music. It seemed a fitting tribute to these proud, beautiful vehicles in the rough. I actually HOPE someone just mechanically revives the blue roadster, as this is how it was used & enjoyed. THANK YOU for producing this video!
Thanks for such a great comment and I share the belief that the guy is smiling somewhere at the thought it took so many people, and all that machinery, to get those cars out. Well done for spotting the steelwork - it was all drilled, so that clevis pins/bolts could be placed in and girders rested across the width of the garage. It was like some kind of manual car-lift. UK Barn Finds is just two people; myself (Elton) and Claire, who does all the editing. She has the hardest job and I really appreciate the comment about the music, as I know she spends a long time going through the catalogue to choose the right tunes. It's nice when people comment on this, as we rely on feedback to know when we get things right (and wrong!). Hope you enjoy enjoy Part 2, which is being edited as I type...
@@UKBarnFinds Came to the comments to try and find the music and complement the editor - that sequence with the 50's AC being loaded, had to watch twice cause of the music and I had the playback speed cranked up the first time! What _IS_ that piece of music? Gorgeous minor keys, I want a copy . .. . .. _GREAT_ sequence, thanks.
I luv the fact that the house opposite you can see the windows upstairs are the original ones and the fact that someone may have watched through them all those years ago and possibly had seen these cars being driven in to the back yard. Now all these years later you could watch from the same windows and see the cars being pulled out, fantastic 👍 Really enjoyed this video, excellent work buddy.
I know what you mean. You can look around here and picture your own stories relating to it all. I’d have loved to have found someone who saw them going in there, all those years ago, and find out a bit more about them from when they were actually on the road. Thank you for watching and I’m really glad you enjoyed it.
Great and well shot video. What a monumental travesty that these cars were hoarded away. Mental health is a serious issue in the world. I hope at least some of these, or at least a bunch of rare parts off of what’s left of these wonderful cars can be saved. Thanks for posting. Well done.
The ubiquitous Barn find often over used when they are just in a garage and not a barn, however this one does not fall into that category. This well and truly constitutes a Barn find. What a great find and all quality and valuable cars in their day. Well worth viewing,
Thanks Elton and Claire for uploading this most anticipated video, I was looking forward to it. It was amazing seeing the process of the cars being extracted after being hidden away for soo many years. I was thinking it would be great if a neighbour came over and said they remembered seeing the cars going in there originally. From doing some detection I've found out the exact location of where these cars were, but obviously won't reveal its whereabouts. I'll look forward to seeing part 2 next week. 👍
I thought that too. I suspect they were only bothered about the bread and butter stuff, and not sifting through everything else to look for other classic parts.
There were very few parts to save. Most of the stuff being moved with the digger is just general crap that hoarders keep for no reason! Parts that were worth saving were put to one side or in the house.
The military Ammo boxes all around would be worth a few bob depending on the dates , and I wonder what other gems were lost while they got the cars out
Quite a few nice bits did come from there before the car extraction began, but most of what you see in this video was just scrap. As a hoarder myself, I'd have probably still kept most of it, mind you 😂
I thought the same, the Mk3/4 Escort front end would have some worth, as would the Mk1 Granada alloy, I did wince slightly when I saw the loader dragging it all out the way...
You know, that first E-Type that came out off the grass, that body and 'frame' (what's left of it at least) in the States here, that's still a car. It has a VIN number, it's an authentic E-Type, it's a car and could very well be 'saved' no matter what went into the resto. Amazing find!!
Absolutely. That's what happens here, too. There is also a number printed under the rear registration plate, I believe, which can be used to identify the cars, and then heritage certificates can be obtained in order to apply for a 'new' registration. With the right evidence, it can also be possible to have the original registration plate allocated back to the car in some instances. Thank you for the comment. It's great for us to know that the video is being enjoyed in the USA.
Fords are my main thing but it's ironic you mentioned the CF Bedford as in the 70s up to 80s a neighbour of ours had a Bedford van it was all furlined and seated out in the back ..he was always underneath working on the van
Well Done!!.......I grew up in Southern New England at the time of the "British Invasion "... had Multiple Spridgets and New Mini Coopers!!... although some of these cars were Scrap back then, they are Gems today. Great video. Thanks for sharing!! Looking forward to seeing what follows!🇺🇸🎩🇺🇸🎩🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
My best friend and I were frequent pests so to speak at a Jaguar dealer in Riverside California in the late '60s , early '70s call exam Per nets , and took every chance to peruse the XK s and still remember the sight and smell of those works of perfect mechanical art !
A lot of Jaguars did end up in the USA, that's for sure. Quite a few of them are finding their way back now, as the climate there has been a lot kinder to them than our damp UK weather!
I’m sure some of the Tory cronies who made a wedge from coronavirus would love that number plate on the Bristol ac 70ppe Amazing find though some truly beautiful cars to be saved
This was covered by Anglia Car Auctions 2 weeks ago,. But they only uploaded one part which was 12 mins long. Absolutely amazing cars can't wait to watch all of your video.
For those of you that like AC cars, there is an urban explorer that gets an invite to a massive private collection of them, some restored, some under restoration and some beyond salvage. If I am allowed an can find out which explorer it is, can I post a link to their UA-cam page please.
Whilst I enjoy seeing cars being removed from their tombs, I really cannot get my head around why people would want to store cars in this manner to let them just decay especially as some are so rare and of great value. Well done for getting the footage.
yeah, i don't get excitement from seeing these...closer to disgust at why some lazy-ass mentally ill person with too much money thought this was a good idea
It's absolutely amazing what restorers can do because in my eyes with my abilities obviously I'm not trained in restoration but all them cars look beyond repair I know they're not but still it's amazing
My Uncle passed away last year and his pristine E type was sold for £180,000 . My Aunty said he had purchased the car for £29,000 in the early 90s. Before they had children they had an etype she says that would be worth 1,000,000 today. Amazing
So very well done guys. what a fabulous find, as you say possibly find of the decade or better! Thanks for sharing this with us, great finds and look forward very much to part two and ANY updates on the restorations possibly! Absolutely brilliant!
I remember picking up a load of white goods for repair in Pembrokeshire years ago, and the garage there, very much like this one had two or three E types and two gullwing Mercedes in a very sorry state. I thought this might have been the same place when I saw the thumbnail. Crazy what's still out there.
@@UKBarnFinds Me too but I can't remember where it was exactly. This was back in the late 90's. I used to travel all over South West Wales for an Appliance sales and repair business and would often see classics hoarded away on my travels. The most unusual one I remember was a beat up Borgward Isabella coupe used by a drug dealer! The property was being cleared after he got caught so not sure what became of the car
What a rare treat: my two favourite UA-cam influencers in one video. UK Barn finds and Anglia car Auctions. It can only be good! I’ll be sharing this video, definitely. Well done guys.
Thank you. Anglia Car Auctions have been very supportive of our videos. You’ll find that they feature in quite a few. Lovely people and a great business 👍🏻
Back in 1961 my Dad bought a one owner E Type Series 1 3.8 FHC in dark metallic blue. If I remember correctly it cost £1,500 which back then was a tidy sum. It was tuned by BRM which was just up the road to where we lived. Even at the tender age of 8 I was a young petrol head in the making..
Sometimes we can say...Thank you for hoarders if they keep cars/bikes under the roof. And sometimes we hate them if they keep "our" stuff just outside and won't sell it to save it.
@@UKBarnFinds found solace in there, just had my licence medically revoked, that’s ok ✅,, But I’m about to auction my lovely SL500 , that’s a whole different thing tho ,,,
Absolutely stunning cars . Iv seen cars like this in there true glory . Amazing cars . Well done guys for getting these out. God knows how he got them in and up there .
In the mid 1960s I dated a girl whose father would reconstruct E types from whatever damaged totaled wrecks he could find. Missed that opportunity because I was more interested in the daughter. Here I am looking at damaged E types and the girl? Long gone.
I know someone that bought an alloy bodied Allard in the 60s and then scraped it for the engine and running gear to put under a 1932 5 window ford coupe.
Sad to see such beautiful machines left to rot,but hopefully some will be lovingly restored ,I can only imagine the exciting lifestyle the owners enjoyed while driving these machines.
That Landy was not as bad as JEU, the first Landrover off the production line which was re-discovered recently and restored. This one will be great when restored.
And the Bedford CF camper.. I did wonder if they belonged to a relation of the barns owner, or grew up knowing him & helped foster their love of old cars!
I remember as a kid these cars didn't have much value. But like you was wondering "why"? Probably some valuable parts in the piles of junk also. Interesting video!
Just imagine if the building they were stored in had survived a bit better. It might also have fallen in and destroyed most of these cars. An amazing find. How did they move the upper ones without getting squashed?
As a 15 year old girl I Wanna get more into classic cars as my dad has 2, a 1950s series 1 80” Land Rover and a 1988 citron 2cv, I find them very interesting , keep up the good work :)
It’s amazing how these cars have been in this Barn - garage. It makes me think how anyone all them years ago could actually get these cars stored in this small but not that small space. There was quite a bit of thought gone into getting them in. Let alone suspending them up in the air. And actually stashing about eight cars into a garage like that. Considering there was none of the lifting gear that we have today. To do any of the lifting like that 50 or however many years ago. I suspect that was done with some jacks. And extremely dodgy scaffolding. Just to have them suspended up there like that is pretty amazing.
Thank you. We'll do our best to let you know. If you're free the weekend of the auction, Anglia Car Auctions do a FANTASTIC live feed of their classic car sale. Claire (the other half of UK Barn Finds) often watches the whole thing and likes to join in the comments section.
I'm guessing the person who owned the garage in the early 70s was a bit of a genius with a block & tackle, and had faith in the construction of the shed.
I know a few horders hear in Wiltshire and they would rather let stuff rust than sell it .when they die then it is up to the family to sort out the mess and you hope the scrap metal dealer isn't called 😮
Cheeky story, for real. Never seen your channel ever. Am a huge fan of barn find hunters and Tom Cotter. That being said, my phone was in my pocket and you video began. Never in the world would you find that many e types. Praise God
The two E Type roadsters inside look saveable and the AC's are definitely restorable because of their value. The Land Rover will be a chassis plate recreation and the first E Type to come out is scrap. The brown FHC will probably become a roadster with a new body.
I just hope somehow, someone with money restores them and let us all see them on road someday. On a much smaller scale, I've just 'finished' restoring my 2001 996.1 C2, mechanically. I'm not gonna lie, it was expensive. But it's a great daily driver and solid now, ready for the next 100k miles or so. I can only imagine the cost of restoring one of these!
I love the apotrophes around 'finished' - there's a person who knows that these things are never finished 😂 I share your hope about these cars; it would be lovely to see them pop up as a photo on my social media feeds one day, 'spotted' somewhere and looking gorgeous again. One thing's for sure, Anglia car Auctions will give them as good a chance as anyone could of finding the right new home.

I amazed how the previous owner managed to stack all those cars three high 😮
I swear he was the inspiration for some of the Indiana Jones scenes 😳

what's the use of hiding these cars, apart from being rare, they are also beautiful and should not be hidden and destroyed

Not sure they'd have been "driven" in? Must have had a forklift or similar?
I wouldn't be surprised if that house was owned by the same guy
This is sarcasm right?

It's amazing what can still be found out there

How on Earth did the owner get all those cars into that space he`s a genius.
You nailed it with that comment. I kept asking myself the same question the whole time. The man was/is, without doubt, incredibly clever.
Perhaps he built the outside of the barn after the inside……. No, probably not !
Must have had access to a fork lift truck.@@UKBarnFinds
Johnny from the late brake show must be gutted to have missed this barn find
That’s so nice to see rare classic cars getting repaired and taken care of

Edge of my seat mouth open, no words, fantastic. Thanks, cant wait for part 2.
Thank you! I'm glad we captured this and were able to share it in a way that people seem to be enjoying.
Well done to the team atanglia car auctions and the other firms involved, a credit to yu all,
They did a great job and thank you for acknowledging that 👍🏻
I can’t believe they were destroying all the parts on the floor with the mini digger while making room to get the 1st e type out!
I thought that too.
I suspect they were only bothered about the bread and butter stuff, and not sifting through everything else to look for other classic parts.
True.There is still lots of money in parts lying all around.Wings,whells etc
That should be all move gentle aside.
There were very few parts to save. Most of the stuff being moved with the digger is just general crap that hoarders keep for no reason!
Parts that were worth saving were put to one side or in the house.
The military Ammo boxes all around would be worth a few bob depending on the dates , and I wonder what other gems were lost while they got the cars out
Can’t sweat the small stuff when time is money. I would guess Estate Administrators just needed to get this place ready for sale.
Lots of smashing cars there which will make their new owners very happy - I'd love that beautiful Landie.
It's nice to see that they have put matts down so they don't ruin the grass in the garden 😊
It breaks my heart to see once beautiful cars in such a poor condition.I hope they get restored.
I’m sure they’ll go to the right homes. That is the plus side of auctions and publicity like this; they’ll be on a lot of people’s radar now.
Absolutely outstanding!
I`d love to see what's inside the house, I bet there are some right gems in there too .
The trash piles surrounding the garage might prove to be a treasure trove of old parts.

In Holland as well. My old man has only driven English cars over here up to very recent, like a MGB, Rover, Jaguar X type and a Land Rover Discovery.
Having owned a etype series 2 drophead in the 70's i found this amazing. Thanks for sharing.
So glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching 👍
Exotic stuff,but also spotted,Mk 3 Granada and a CF Bedford! Keep 'em peeled!

Thanks for the comment. What a time to have been growing up. So much was going on in the car world and all the culture surrounding it.
When everyone wanted a Mustang, I was dreaming about MGB'S ...
Wow, what an amazing find.
Those cars were stored with no intent on restoration.
It’s like a forgotten meat locker but for cars. So weird.
What a find, amazing what's still out there....Great Video Elton...:)
Thank you 🙏 I get the easy job, though. It’s Claire who makes it worth watching, with her new-found love of editing! 😂
Slow and steady wins the extracting race. Cheers from the States. Nice job, now the fun begins.
Nice to see this collection was so lovingly cared for.
My best friend and I were frequent pests so to speak at a Jaguar dealer in Riverside California in the late '60s , early '70s call exam Per nets , and took every chance to peruse the XK s and still remember the sight and smell of those works of perfect mechanical art !
A lot of Jaguars did end up in the USA, that's for sure. Quite a few of them are finding their way back now, as the climate there has been a lot kinder to them than our damp UK weather!

Thank you for watching and for commenting. We’re loving the fact that this one has been enjoyed by so many people.
Great show of rare cars.
Would of loved to see them restored and running what lovely cars
Very nice to see them getting new homes, I walk past a garden everyday with old land rovers and Bedfords. Looks like they are just wasting away.
Brilliant guys.
Wow truly epic find the old man new what he had amazing ❤️🏴🏴

They might have been somewhat rotten and damaged, i.e. considered scrap at the time, before they were stored.
They won't have been worth much when put in their
I'll get around to it someday
yeah, i don't get excitement from seeing these...closer to disgust at why some lazy-ass mentally ill person with too much money thought this was a good idea

Wow what a fantastic video great cars
It's absolutely amazing what restorers can do because in my eyes with my abilities obviously I'm not trained in restoration but all them cars look beyond repair I know they're not but still it's amazing
Some of them look a bit more straight forward than others, that’s for sure 😂
I wish we could see the restoration of these beautiful cars!!! 😃😍
Likewise! I wonder how long each one would take? 😳
Wow it just amazes me that people stash these amazing cars away and just let them waste away. I hope they can be brought back to life. Great video.
No matter what they sell for the restoration costs will far exceed their value once completed, land rover will be a triggers broom resto at best.

Just imagine if the building they were stored in had survived a bit better. It might also have fallen in and destroyed most of these cars. An amazing find.
How did they move the upper ones without getting squashed?
Such a fine adventure.
Insane what a cool find in the most unthinkable place
Crazy finds.
As a 15 year old girl I
Wanna get more into classic cars as my dad has 2, a 1950s series 1 80” Land Rover and a 1988 citron 2cv, I find them very interesting , keep up the good work :)
dude you scared me!! thought my speaker blew haha
This is jaw-dropping!!!
Enjoyed every minute of this video. Some very exciting examples of E types.
Thanks for the comment. Glad you enjoyed it 👍🏻
Crazy stuff..Love it
It’s amazing how these cars have been in this Barn - garage. It makes me think how anyone all them years ago could actually get these cars stored in this small but not that small space. There was quite a bit of thought gone into getting them in. Let alone suspending them up in the air. And actually stashing about eight cars into a garage like that. Considering there was none of the lifting gear that we have today. To do any of the lifting like that 50 or however many years ago. I suspect that was done with some jacks. And extremely dodgy scaffolding. Just to have them suspended up there like that is pretty amazing.
FANTASTIC
Will need someone with deep pockets to bring these back to life but some of these could be £300k+ when restored
Great video - would be fun to find out how the auction goes
Thank you. We'll do our best to let you know. If you're free the weekend of the auction, Anglia Car Auctions do a FANTASTIC live feed of their classic car sale. Claire (the other half of UK Barn Finds) often watches the whole thing and likes to join in the comments section.
I'm guessing the person who owned the garage in the early 70s was a bit of a genius with a block & tackle, and had faith in the construction of the shed.
Wow!, the last time the log books were issued was Jan 1984.. 10 KPL....RYM 2..... 70 PPE
Amazing!
I know a few horders hear in Wiltshire and they would rather let stuff rust than sell it .when they die then it is up to the family to sort out the mess and you hope the scrap metal dealer isn't called 😮
Nice Granada Scorpio videobomb at 10:33
Cheeky story, for real. Never seen your channel ever. Am a huge fan of barn find hunters and Tom Cotter. That being said, my phone was in my pocket and you video began. Never in the world would you find that many e types. Praise God
It was meant to be! Glad you found the video and enjoyed it. Thanks for letting us know and we hope you’ll enjoy Part 2.
awesome video they was some beauty classic cars in there i would love to own that blue ac ace see you in part 2
The two E Type roadsters inside look saveable and the AC's are definitely restorable because of their value. The Land Rover will be a chassis plate recreation and the first E Type to come out is scrap. The brown FHC will probably become a roadster with a new body.
I just hope somehow, someone with money restores them and let us all see them on road someday. On a much smaller scale, I've just 'finished' restoring my 2001 996.1 C2, mechanically. I'm not gonna lie, it was expensive. But it's a great daily driver and solid now, ready for the next 100k miles or so. I can only imagine the cost of restoring one of these!
I love the apotrophes around 'finished' - there's a person who knows that these things are never finished 😂 I share your hope about these cars; it would be lovely to see them pop up as a photo on my social media feeds one day, 'spotted' somewhere and looking gorgeous again. One thing's for sure, Anglia car Auctions will give them as good a chance as anyone could of finding the right new home.
Fun number plate on the Land rover LSD !!😂
