Back in the days teachers had very high salaries and would get big houses for free from the schools, and the said plumbers were actually plumbing companies owners and thieves.
No mention of the Bugatti Royale hidden away in the paris sewers to hide it from the Nazis in WWII? The Citroen 2CV prototypes? Bugatti in the lake? There are so many crazy pre-war stories that should make a part 2!
The Gestapo actually declared Citroen President Pierre Jules Boulanger an enemy of the Reich for refusing to cooperate and give up any information on the 2CV project. Fortunately the Michelin family, who owned Citroen at the time, had enough influence with the Viche government to keep him from being deported for trial in Germany.
Chad Kensington butthurt teenagers will say it was ass before even playing it, but if you’re willing to keep an open mind and/or played with LEGO as a kid, it’s a great little pack to race around in. And the Indianapolis-style track makes it a must-have.
For real, my father had a 1955 300 SL gullwing that was one of twelve built for the Mercedes racing team. He took it to the NC highway patrol, and the comment was made, "We don't have anything that'll catch it." One year after he sold it, it was declared a classic. He kicked himself for the rest of his life.
my grandfather owns a barn and he stores a DeLorean inside of it. I am going to "discover" the car in a few years if he doesn't sell it edit: he put it in a heated garage for better storage, looks like I'll never discover it later on
Someone else in the comments gave the story, TL;DR after she sold the car she willed the money to her mother and then lit herself on fire, I'm thinking suicide attempt.
If anyone wants to know what the other Cobra Daytonas are up to, they’re doing what they were born to do. They’re currently racing! The masters historic racing series uses I think 3 or 4 of them. I watched them being absolutely thrashed around the Silverstone circuit at the 2021 British Grand Prix weekend as one of the many support series for the F1 race that weekend. They came first and second in the first race, and both spun off on final lap after an intense race for the lead in the 2nd race! Very loud, very fast and very beautiful cars. Glad to see them being driven round famous, historic tracks to their absolute limit. It’s what they are made to do. Not sitting in a museum and occasionally parading around a field.
Prob is that I live in Dubai and to fix a let's say Koenigsegg regera you'll need to send it to Europe or us but emission won't let you and import age also old supers like 09 Aventador or Gallardo need to be exported and in here you need an Emirati visa which requires a Emirati ID which is taken from the royal court and needs years for foreigners And we use only Nissan and Toyota so fixing them is hard Sorry
One of the most famous barn finds was a Tucker 48 in Georgia I believe, can't imagine what it must feel like to discover something that rare caked in dust for 50 years.
For any of you guys in the UK Look in your barns too, there's tons of old Jaguars dug out all the time that if you fix them up they can be worth lots of money
A lot of them that I have found were car entusiest that fell into poor health, past away, left it or them to family who don't know anything about cars. They don't know about the value and just let it sit because it doesn't run and in there minds a car that doesn't run isn't worth anything. It's a lot of trouble in some areas to get ride of a car so they just don't car that it's sitting with a tree growing through it.
I had a great uncle that past away and when he did he left a 48 Studebaker pickup, 56 Chevy Bel Air, 73 Opal GT he got from my dad when we came back from Germany, 24 Model T 2d Coupe, 29 Model A Pick Up and a 68 Corvette Stingray (Those last three actually were in his barn). Not a one of them ran. Most were complete but with engines taken apart and parts in the trunk on top of issues like missing windows, mirrors, flat & rotten tires, tree sap damaged paint, the Bel Air was missing it's convertible top and interior but in the barn under several tarps. My great aunt refused to sale them, move them, store them better, nothing. She had made some sort of emotional attachment to them because my great uncle loved tinkering on them. I just wanted the, 73 Opal since it had been my dad's car when I was a baby that my mom hated since we couldn't all fit in it, sold only because he was a family man now. It was the 1.9L H motor with 4 speed, limited slip, front and rear anti-sway, heated rear window, and factory 205x15 wheels/tires instead of the normal 195x13 since it was a track test bed car he picked up used in Nuremberg from a factory driver. Nope! She wouldn't sell it and my cousins sent them off to auction when my great aunt past away.

I found a 1999 Dodge Viper ACR sitting on a desert mountain owned by a family for years that got stuck after the road washed out from one storm they never tried getting it moved. Not a Barn Find...but a rough intriguing find indeed!
Back in the late 70s my dad read a newpaper ad for a "Plymouth Cuda- $2,500". He knew there was no way that someone was selling a Hemi Cuda for that little, and must've been someone who was too proud of their off-the-shelf Barracuda (which isn't nearly the same car). He went to look and was greeted by a woman who explained that her son had died in the Vietnam war, and was selling the car that he had left behind, not knowing anything about the car other than it's nameplate. They went to look at the car and it was in their shed, underneath a tarp, covered in boxes of empty mason jars. When he pulled back the tarp, revealing the shaker hood, he knew that it really was a 440 hemi cuda, and Immediately called his brother to get the trailer. He didn't even want to leave the property and risk someone else taking his deal. He shook her hand, said "sorry about your son", and went home with his new prize. I feel like this must've happened often with many of the young men didn't make it home from that war. I don't remember if he sold or traded the car, but he had it for less than a year. He tells that story with a very obvious grudge against his former self. He always ends it with "If I had known then what I know now..."
Plymouth Cuda was the best classic muscle car of all time. You got so lucky with that, and the 440 is super rare too, I've head of alot more people with the 426.
Huh. Just today on my way back from work i discovered that one of my neigbours has an Elise S1 collecting dust in his garage. Strange how these things happen.
Imagine working hard your entire life so that one day you would be so rich that you could feel the joy of giving your kids the most amazing gift of a rare car and they don't even drive it. Can you imagine how excited he must have been to see his kids faces when he showed them their new cars.
MotorTrend had a short series called "AutoBiographies", where two car geeks research and find out all sorts of crazy stuff and come up with theories about how famous car mysteries transpired. They do one on the Buried Ferrari Dino, and they actually reach out to the son of the dude who originally bought the car. Lots of information in that video that made me doubt that he was involved in the robbery. As always, great content guys!
Like the car wasn't for his Wife, He was a plummer but also owned a lot of property and had NO issue paying for the car, and the police informant was a CAR THIEF and saw the car on the street and boosted it on his own. Great show!
My Grandfathers got a 70 Nova SS all original sitting in his shed. and a 64 or 65 Mustang convertible in the barn that doesn't run. Hes never driven the Nova after 10+ years of fixing it up
One of the coolest barn finds I know about was a 60's Ford Country Squire that was shown on the Barn Find Hunter series on Hagerty. It was a 1 of 1 big block with 4 speed manual. There is literally nothing else like it.
well i have a 86 gmc c10 shortbox with a datsun 4cyl in it if that counts? my grandpa built it wayyy back just because his friend said he couldn’t get 50+mpg in a truck, and now years later it’s been passed on to me to restore!
I found a 1970s chevy chevell in the patking lot in NY state. Shes sitting there rotting with mother nature. Also i found a 1970s nissan datsun in my local junkyard. 😭
My dad has done estate cleanouts and antique autions of complete estates for well over 55 years since hes been 16, and the things ive encountered growing up at some estates, that ive had to watch sell for hundreds of dollars because i was Too young to buy them and flip or fix, truly used to eat away at me when i started getting heavy in cars. Although the historical preservation aspect, and the amount of vehicles that people bought cheap and saved from rotting to dirt in those collapsed barns and garages, makes all the regret feel less bad.
Me and my dad found a 1974 pantera gts in a barn in Alabama with only 124 miles on it and once we cleaned it all up it had no dents or scratches on any of the body work and the frame was just a little rusty... once we fixed that We sold it for almost 300k
Charles Keast in the 70s In Alabama there was no title... I had to bring it to the DMV here in Florida to get a new title for it before I could get it registered. It did have a bill of sale in the glove box tho.
My first car was a red 1967 Ford Mustang that had been forgotten in a barn. The owners didn’t know anything about it. To them It was just a dusty old car in their barn next to a bunch of farm equipment. My dad bought it and we spent about two years cleaning it up from all the dirt and dust. It was a great experience and a fun car to drive.
There’s an elderly gentleman that fills his 300SL Gullwing with leaded fuel at Motorsports Ranch in Cresson, TX. Last time I went racing an HPDE there I saw him and was just raving about it. Gave the guy a chuckle 😅
Hey, me too! I've spent last few days trying to start mine-one of the plug boots stayed put and then broke up! I've been getting bits out every day (it's progress, I suppose!)

@@tunturimies84 nothing Euro, 1969 Acadian drag car, basically a Canadian Nova. A Charlies Angles looking '78 Mustang Ghia, still original family owned, I parked in the early 90's when the odometer hit 100K. 1969 c10 panel truck, I started working on it a few years ago, sick of working on it I'm going to sell it.
Reminds me of someone I used to know. Their grandfather was a pretty bad hoarder, who even held onto his cars throughout the years. There's a '48 DeSoto in the garage covered in trash and a '76 Plymouth in the driveway sunk in the ground up to the rockers. Neither car had ran in decades. Sure enough, he says he's going to fix them, so not for sale, and his immediate successor seem to follow the same hoarding trend sadly...
My Great grandpa who has since passed... still has a Austin Healy 3000mk3 witch is the rare golden beige. sitting in there old yard under a tarp in amazing condition from the recent pictures I’ve seen
That barn can be found. 200 rare cars suffering and deteriorating is a shame. There are plenty of people who would gladly pay the man and treat the cars right.
You Portuguese car nuts should all come together and storm remote locations in Portugal to find it. Then again, the best hiding spot is one in plain sight.
As long as there are cars to find and barns or barn like structures (hell, or really anywhere) for them to be hidden away or abandoned in/at I'm sure of it.
There are so many rusting JDMs in Japan. Found a rusting r32 outside a barn with knobby tires and a smashed windshield. As far as I know, it's been sitting there for years!
My family has a tradition of getting a car after Graduation. When I was a freshman in high school, I went along with my dad to one of his friends house. They were talking cars , and being a nosy kid I ventured off to the back of the property, underneath a tree sat a beautiful Porsche, even though it had weeds growing up from every opening, car parts on the inside, and covered in probably twenty years of dirt... it was amazing to actually see one in person, especially since I’d been a Porsche freak since I was 7. I began asking my dad if he could buy it and keep it until I graduated, unfortunately his friend didn’t want to sell it... the car was a 1959 Porsche 356 1600 GS Carrera....

Trivia. Stamatis Kokotas is a famous singer in Greece, the Miura was gifted to him by the tycoon Onasis, who was a dear friend to him. When Alexander Onasis died in his planecrash, kokotas was rushed to the private island of Scorpios to ging for Onasis his greatest song, Γιέ μου (my son). The Miura had a transplanted ford engine and it was not abandoned, it just sat for more than 30 years in that garage.
I agree. The feel of finding and opening up all the barns in every Forza game is soo much fun. I like to keep most of the cars stock, and one of my favorite cars (the Toyota t-100 Baja truck) is a barn find
I’m from jacksonville and grew up next to a forest with a bunch of dilapidated barns with antique cars we would explore through, we may have just missed it!
To be completely honest, most of these realistic barn find are the kind off the same barn finds from Forza Horizon, The SLS, The M1, The Miura, and the Shelby are same barn finds from Horizon 1.

If I remember right, metal sodering is a thing, and this is an actual use case. It's like a weld, but a bit less permanent as less heat than a cutting torch is needed to open it back up, and it can also be resealed easily.
My dads friend found a 1969 mustang Mach 1 drag pack in a barn and gifted it to my dad when he passed. Currently fixing it up with my dad to make it into something drivable and worth showing off.
My entire life I did not know my uncle had two a Cadillacs a 56 and cadillacs hearse. And a 67 442 oldsmobile in his garage. Until 2 years ago and I STILL have not seen them.

Datsun 240Z's are some interesting cars once you start working on one you will want to drive one forever😂❤
I'm one of the dead drivers. Even Akio is with me in heaven. Tatsuya Shima had a failed surgery on his broken head
@@IntellectualHazard lol noice
well i have a 86 gmc c10 shortbox with a datsun 4cyl in it if that counts? my grandpa built it wayyy back just because his friend said he couldn’t get 50+mpg in a truck, and now years later it’s been passed on to me to restore!
@@fireplaceninja thats actually really cool
They're really fun to drive honestly
The m1 in South Italy was of the MAFIA that's why it wasn't registered
I found a 1970s chevy chevell in the patking lot in NY state. Shes sitting there rotting with mother nature. Also i found a 1970s nissan datsun in my local junkyard. 😭
@Chad Kensington i undetstand that pain
My dad has done estate cleanouts and antique autions of complete estates for well over 55 years since hes been 16, and the things ive encountered growing up at some estates, that ive had to watch sell for hundreds of dollars because i was Too young to buy them and flip or fix, truly used to eat away at me when i started getting heavy in cars. Although the historical preservation aspect, and the amount of vehicles that people bought cheap and saved from rotting to dirt in those collapsed barns and garages, makes all the regret feel less bad.
Me and my dad found a 1974 pantera gts in a barn in Alabama with only 124 miles on it and once we cleaned it all up it had no dents or scratches on any of the body work and the frame was just a little rusty... once we fixed that We sold it for almost 300k
How did you get title
Charles Keast in the 70s In Alabama there was no title... I had to bring it to the DMV here in Florida to get a new title for it before I could get it registered. It did have a bill of sale in the glove box tho.
r/thathappened
Well, I'm Portuguese... I must find that barn!
And so the search begins
Let us know when you find the barn
I am a simple man,
*I see Wangan Midnight Legendary S30Z*
I click
*Akuma no Zeto*
Agreed
You are legendary for recognizing it straight away
Yesssssss mate that’s the juice
But the og one was a Z31 300ZX, not a S30
Best looking car ever
My first car was a red 1967 Ford Mustang that had been forgotten in a barn. The owners didn’t know anything about it. To them It was just a dusty old car in their barn next to a bunch of farm equipment. My dad bought it and we spent about two years cleaning it up from all the dirt and dust. It was a great experience and a fun car to drive.
There’s an elderly gentleman that fills his 300SL Gullwing with leaded fuel at Motorsports Ranch in Cresson, TX. Last time I went racing an HPDE there I saw him and was just raving about it. Gave the guy a chuckle 😅
I found a 1969 chevy impala with a Ford 427 racing block in it. It was sticking up in the ground and halfway buried in the ground.
Did you dig it up?
You talking about Carhenge?
my mr2 has been in the garage over ten years now waiting for me to finish the engine swap. someday it'll be someone's barn find XD
Gimmi it •́ ‿ ,•̀
@Yul Strokheet Al-Wauch are u drunk?

I'll take it for uhhh,.
2 cents
Hey, me too! I've spent last few days trying to start mine-one of the plug boots stayed put and then broke up! I've been getting bits out every day (it's progress, I suppose!)
I love these old barn find stories, and can we make an up to speed on lotus and maybe one for Subaru like when they used to make little tiny cars for Japan
My grandpa has a 1954 chevy bel air two door in his garage. He is currently working in restoring it. Its a little dusty, but not very rusty at all.
i live next to the barn in portugal and my grandpa sold a alfa giulietta ss to dat guy
Tb sou português, onde é que é o celeiro wtf?
@@amercrash8558 não sei dizer mas sei que é relativanente perto de minha casa (zona de braga)
Where is it?
If I want to see cars that haven't seen the road in 20+ years, all I have to do is go out to my garage 😞
What do you have there?
@@tunturimies84 nothing Euro, 1969 Acadian drag car, basically a Canadian Nova. A Charlies Angles looking '78 Mustang Ghia, still original family owned, I parked in the early 90's when the odometer hit 100K. 1969 c10 panel truck, I started working on it a few years ago, sick of working on it I'm going to sell it.
@@GIZZMOTORSPORTS Aight
Thats my dads driveway... We have a really hard time getting rid of cars here so they keep piling up :D
Reminds me of someone I used to know. Their grandfather was a pretty bad hoarder, who even held onto his cars throughout the years. There's a '48 DeSoto in the garage covered in trash and a '76 Plymouth in the driveway sunk in the ground up to the rockers. Neither car had ran in decades. Sure enough, he says he's going to fix them, so not for sale, and his immediate successor seem to follow the same hoarding trend sadly...
Man I love hearing about barn finds. I've seen photos of the shelby Daytona on the internet but never thought the story was that ludicrous
I found a '65 Mustang GT in a customer's shed when I came to pickup their lawn mower a week or so ago.
My Great grandpa who has since passed... still has a Austin Healy 3000mk3 witch is the rare golden beige.
sitting in there old yard under a tarp in amazing condition from the recent pictures I’ve seen
Imagine being lost in the woods and coming across a old wooden barn and there being a 1977 Plymouth ready to go
Sponsor progress bar is much appreciated!
I'm another one who paused watching just to say this. Thanks!
I love how you put the yellow bar for the add, really nice vid.
If I found an original Shelby I would spend every penny needed to make that thing a BEAUT again.
I would never sell it either
make that thing look fire again
That barn can be found. 200 rare cars suffering and deteriorating is a shame. There are plenty of people who would gladly pay the man and treat the cars right.
True! And in my own country. I had never heard of it... Must find it!
You Portuguese car nuts should all come together and storm remote locations in Portugal to find it. Then again, the best hiding spot is one in plain sight.
@@kevinnorris6558 Im portuguese, and i would LOVE to do that,lol XD , Vamos juntarnos pessoaaal da tugaaa lol.

”Go say hi to your granpa and tell him you love him”... Well, his funeral is tomorrow..
Dope video, guys. I can't get enough of these barn finds. You think a barn find will even be a thing in 20-30 years?
As long as there are cars to find and barns or barn like structures (hell, or really anywhere) for them to be hidden away or abandoned in/at I'm sure of it.
There are so many rusting JDMs in Japan. Found a rusting r32 outside a barn with knobby tires and a smashed windshield. As far as I know, it's been sitting there for years!
My family has a tradition of getting a car after Graduation. When I was a freshman in high school, I went along with my dad to one of his friends house. They were talking cars , and being a nosy kid I ventured off to the back of the property, underneath a tree sat a beautiful Porsche, even though it had weeds growing up from every opening, car parts on the inside, and covered in probably twenty years of dirt... it was amazing to actually see one in person, especially since I’d been a Porsche freak since I was 7. I began asking my dad if he could buy it and keep it until I graduated, unfortunately his friend didn’t want to sell it... the car was a 1959 Porsche 356 1600 GS Carrera....
A fast reminder that Bugatti just broke the 300mph barrier
Alex Lassaline It was modified :/
Fast indeed
@@bruh_machine but their teasing it as the 2021 chiron
I'm surprised you didn't mention how an entire warehouse full of mint condition 90s BMWs was discovered in Bulgaria.
Abandoned Red spitfire in a barn by Delano CA convertible last time I saw it was 5 years ago visited it 3 times prior and it was still there
Might wanna get a guy to tow it
@@RosalieValentineCHENG lol its not mine thooo ive wanted to
Report it to therr police first? Then try to buy it out if no one responds
@@RosalieValentineCHENG What the hell are the cops going to do? They can't just steal a car out of someone's barn.
@@atomicmillenial9728 report it to the police so that way they can track the next owner of the family car to own it, then if no one owns the car, the car is going to either be put at an impound lot where you can buy it
That green on the Dino is A M A Z I N G!
Trivia. Stamatis Kokotas is a famous singer in Greece, the Miura was gifted to him by the tycoon Onasis, who was a dear friend to him. When Alexander Onasis died in his planecrash, kokotas was rushed to the private island of Scorpios to ging for Onasis his greatest song, Γιέ μου (my son). The Miura had a transplanted ford engine and it was not abandoned, it just sat for more than 30 years in that garage.
Upcoming Forza Horizon graphics looks amazing!!!
Anyone else thinking that Forza took innovation from real life barn finds
Rs200 4:26
BMW M1 4:56
Ferrari Dino 5:24
Shelby cobra coupe 7:16
And the shelby cobra coupe
The first Forza Horizon had the BMW M1 as a barn find too.
Oh yeah. 🤔
8:43 tnx nolan for making me cry
I agree. The feel of finding and opening up all the barns in every Forza game is soo much fun. I like to keep most of the cars stock, and one of my favorite cars (the Toyota t-100 Baja truck) is a barn find
I’m from jacksonville and grew up next to a forest with a bunch of dilapidated barns with antique cars we would explore through, we may have just missed it!
No one:
10 year olds who play Forza: *oH BaRn FiNdS aRe FrOm FoRzA?!?*
To be completely honest, most of these realistic barn find are the kind off the same barn finds from Forza Horizon, The SLS, The M1, The Miura, and the Shelby are same barn finds from Horizon 1.
@CGTS 457 and every Forza game since Motorsport 2
@Joe Neri personally I think the FH1 barn finds were the most interesting, I always used to keep them stock
@Speedy Racer 4 thanks for checking out my channel, the senna is actually more forgotten then you might think, I rarely see them in ranked adventure
I only watched this because of the Z car in the thumbnail. You click baited me.
how dare they !
same reason for me too, darn you nolan
My 71 240 is still in my fathers barn. Left there in 1995. Someday, I will restore it for my grandson.
@@markjohnson8782 what an amazing grandfather you are. My grandpa loved cars, didn’t leave me any haha, but he got me into cars. I miss him and will always remember him, happy that you can do that for your grandson
I'm pretty sure that door was welded and not soldered...
If I remember right, metal sodering is a thing, and this is an actual use case. It's like a weld, but a bit less permanent as less heat than a cutting torch is needed to open it back up, and it can also be resealed easily.
my granddad has his old volvo 142, its in amazing shape, it almost looks brand new
My dads friend found a 1969 mustang Mach 1 drag pack in a barn and gifted it to my dad when he passed. Currently fixing it up with my dad to make it into something drivable and worth showing off.
I looked in my shed, found nothing.

True and a porche type 64 that the gov wanted to take off the street for staying so long
Aren’t there also just hundreds of abandoned super cars at an airport in Saudi Arabia?

My "barn find" is a yellow VW Beetle (it's actually called fusca in my country) from 1979. My grandma used to drive my mother to school in that car, and it will remain with me till the day I die.
I found a non functional tractor in my great grandmas barn in Korea
It's still a barnfind lol
I found a Maytag Gas powered washing machine in my grandpa's garage, it has an engine, that count?
Craziest barn find?
