I heard a good barn find story Saturday at a car show. The guy was trying to buy a shed for the lumber in a very small town. The owner of the building told him he had to take the car that was in the shed too. He took a look and saw a 69 Mustang with a hole in the hood. He quickly said ok and bought the building. Turns out it was a 69 Mach 1 w/428 Cobra Jet Drag Pack.
Some guys have all the luck.

I've been tempted to post an ad offering to clean out barns, but with my luck they would all be full of something besides a good barn find!

Good story! There are many in this world where a car is just a car no matter how special it is.
There was a guy once that had a really nice Porsche that I knew at work, it was really nice, but he always parked it by the sprinkler parking spot and the car always got wet. I asked him one day why he always parked it in that crappy spot and got his car all wet with hard water spots, he says, no biggy gotta get it washed this weekend anyway, besides its closer to the door.
I'm the type I would have never parked in that spot ever and prefer to park far away!

I'm all farm at heart. I'll take the barn - doesn't matter to me what's in it!
Incredible story though Bob.
