Amazing Barn find

Over 200 hundred cars. I particularly like the old Humber Sceptre at 1:30.

Enjoy!

Re: Amazing Barn find

I used to love the old Morris Minors, Dongle.
I've had three in the past.

Still drove the last one until somewhere around 1999-2001.

I saw a little Hillman Imp in there too, I had one of those as well. A bright red one.

My Dad had an Imp followed by an Anglia.

I wonder why someone bothered to store them but not look after them?

It does make us feel old doesn't it. Those old cars just seemed to have more character than they do now.

I agree. I feel quite sad that we no longer see all those old boys and gals on the road.

Re: Amazing Barn find

An interesting video Longdogs, thanks for posting. I recognised many of those as in my early years, my father owned four or five of those models. I wonder who will buy and restore them and what they will then be worth collectively? That would be interesting to know.
