Abarth double bubble for helmet space,Abarth cars set 52 world speed records .He is my uncle :) Great to see those cars!

It is a shame when some of these great cars just get dumped somewhere and not properly stored and left to rot. Most end up nearly worthless as there is no point restoring them

I wish I had money to buy some of those cars to restore them

I love Tom's assessment of the condition of some of these cars as being "fair". Yeah right.

Dr Hagerty, I'm a bit old, so kind of new to youtube. Ive watched a few of your videos, and theyre just brilliant. But my blood pressure sir! After that Ferrari 'Ellena' i was on the ropes, but the Cobra and 275 pretty much finished me. 😃 all clowning aside, thanks for the vicarious fun!

That ASA and the Record Monza are beautiful. TWO Allemano Spiders...

13:40 Berkeley cars, I'd never heard of this make before today, learn something new every day :)

Die beste Classic Car Serie auf youtube. Tom Cotter kennt sie alle. Fantastisch. Warte schon auf den nächsten Barn Find Hunter. Danke Tom!!!!

Thank you Tom Cotter and Hagerty! I really love watching this series and seeing all the cars that you find!

After watching your series for over a year and found your book Hemi in the Barn at a thrift store, I can say you and I think very much alike. My first barn find was in Washington state apple orchard of a 1940 Ford 2 door with it differential all apart. This was Summer 1963. The car was very original with gas ration decal on windshield and coupons in the glove box. I got hooked and it took until Fall 1988 to find my treasure, a 1939 Buick Century 66s coupe in very rough shape. But it was the car I liked when I would ride my bike by on the way down the lake to hang out as a child. I still have it after 29 years and it is still in pieces........

The ASA, but otherwise the Abarths, AR Giulietta and the Renault Alpine are all wonderful and seriously valuable. Hope these get restored.

Yeah it "Runs and drives good" it's just been sitting in this field for years rotting but I know it will just magically run and drive good.

You notice the door on the corvette how it was a bit open, and the body was tight against it? The car is bent, frame is most likely rusted out and the car is collapsing into itself. I wouldn't quite call it good condition, still repairable tho

Ridiculously low prices for a Swedish car enthusiast point of view. Thanks for a absolutely great channel!

One time in my life I found a true barn find. My brother had leased a farm for duck hunting and there was cars all under the trees around the house. IN the steel shed it was full and I mean full of autos and most were under tarps. The next week I was leaving for auction school and I told my brother to tell the owners to not sell them through the local farm auctioneer. I had been to several fine car auctions and ran a consignment auction for several years. Just as I predicted the local auctioneer pulled the cars across the block without even cleaning them up. an auction that at that time I estimated to be worth no less than $500,000 ended up bringing under $250K Had they been cleaned and worked on and taken to a fine auction I believe there was 900K minimum.

it's always when you hear their pricing you know why they're sitting and rotting

Whats left of my Life I could happily spend looking through sites like these. Grateful thanks to Hagerty from the UK.

Oh man, do I want that 57 Chevy.

One of the rarest cars sitting in the corner- Alpine Renault A110 and not one word about it!

Just my opinion. A car left outdoors is not stored.

I really love these episodes. Hoping some of these cars have a second chance as a result of the show.

Would love to see that Abarth collection. In the 60’s I saw a double bubble on the Santa Ana freeway. Rip snorting bad ass little car!

The ASA is not just a minaturised Ferrari. The inline 4 cylinders in it is actually a half of a V8 Ferrari Engine. This Abarth collection is just astonishing. (and love the Berckeley too)

Wow wow wow. Love vintage Abarth, and what a collection of rare Jews this man has.

I have been buying cars for over 40 years. I now see why the prices on craigslist and other places are so off from my values. I read some of the other comments and I agree a sitting car is not in fair shape. It takes a great amount of work to get them up and running and the RuSt repaired right (if you can). I'm glad I kept some of my old cars and enjoy and drive them when I can. On the other hand its fun to see all the metal out there just sitting. Hopefully there are deals you just got to keep looking. I agree he got a little excited, I noticed he did not buy any of them.

Tom, just wanted to tell you I enjoy your show a lot and look forward to each episode. Breaks my heart to see all these cars sitting there. Wish I had bundles of money to rescue some!!! Keep finding 'em, I'll keep watching & dreaming!

IF I were younger I would be ALL IN on many of these 50's & early mid 60's cars! Love the Big Block El Camino's! A friend of mine bought a New '66 375 HP 396 cu in, that thing would Fry the tires at highway speed from 350 to 460 feet! Had a few Tri 5 Chevy's, would DIVE on the 57 Bel Air and put a Big Block in that! I had a 58 Impala 348 Tri Power, 3 speed on the floor, Posi traction, it even had a simulated Wood Tag on the Dash that said "Posi Traction"! Loved that car.... These videos only make me dream about buying a bunch of these things and go thru them and ENJOY........

Sadly, there in North Georgia, the majority of those cars will just rot away because of those ridiculous prices. 1975 El Camino with a 454 for $5500 ?!?! He should be willing to pay $500 to have it hauled away !!!! That car is,was and always will be a POS.NOBODY wanted that car when it was new.Other than the Buick GS, the 60 Chevy convertible and the 54 Vette, his prices are extreme wishful thinking, to those of us in the real world.Real pricing would be $2500 for BOTH Datsun Z-cars, $2000 for the Fiero GT (if it's an 88)Pretty much everything else on his farm $3500 or LESS.The guy with all those little Italian cars is the one with the mega money stash.That blue kiddie car could be worth up to $20,000 by itself.

Vampirebear13 pretty sure that’s the guy Tom Cotter bought his super rare Cunningham from too.

About 50 ASA 1000 GT coupes were made. So yeah, that's a great barn find.

had a fiat abarth (600 body,750cc engine) back in "67 ,living in seattle...what a blast to drive ,making time through downtown traffic...well, i WAS young..had to sell it...around 1970 saw a doublebubble zagato ON A CAR LOT in PDX and wanted it SO MUCH ,but couldn't afford the ( i think) 2K they asked for it...wonder what i'd have to pay for it now....i LOVED these little giant killers...yeah ,350 hp great in a straight line ,but on a back road....

Breaks my heart to see these cars rusting in the rain

I get that the Abarths are insanely awesome, but one doesn't simply see a Alpine A110 tucked away in South Carolina and not say anything about it!

This has become one of my favorite shows but yeah it’s also sad to see so many cars just riding away. I really respect the guys that have tried their best to protect the cars in the garage or covering them up or something but honestly if you’ve got that many cars just sell them before they get to the state of disrepair. I really hate it when I drive by a car junkyard and the car is it just rusted and rotted. But the guy in South Carolina and this particular episode they have done their best to try to preserve these cars I hope somebody buys them. I would love to buy that GS Buick that would be amazing restoration.

Kudos to the Abarth collection that’s amazing

Double-bubble tops were (and still are) a unique Zagato design element... if you see them on anything, odds are you're looking at a Zagato-designed car...

We just obtained a ‘27 Buick Model 27 “Standard” that was a garage find. Exterior was repainted in original colors, wooden wheels restored, interior is original 91 years old condition for its age is very good. The prev owners wanted to keep the original interior and I gave to agree on their decision. We are in process of building a brand new fuel tank, hoping to be able to start it before snow falls in the Delmarva area! We love the hunt of barn/garage finds!

Its like Christmas every time i see a new episode of your show Tom. Great job!!

BEST SHOW ON KZread. Clicked the notification so fast.

Remember when I was 15, saw a 58 Vette sitting outside next to a garage in someone's back yard, this was 1977. I finally mustered up the courage one day and knocked on their front door and asked if the car was for sale. I wanted to get it back on the road. It was in pretty rough shape. The lady that I spoke with said the car was not for sale and that her husband was "working on it". I gave her my name and ph#, if anything changes, thanked her and left. Fast forward, I drove by the house with the 58 in 1982, it was still sitting there rotting away, far from moving. What a shame.

That '57 looked good for $5K but I thought that more complete '68 Chevelle for $7500 was the better deal if the frame and floors are not rotted like some of the body way. I wish i had $50K to blow on a car; that '70 GS convertible was sweet!

@DanglingDingleBerry

That Chevelle isn't worth $7500 unless it is an L78 car. I currently own 5 Chevelles (69 SS 396 4-speed, 70 SS 396 4-speed, 72 SS 402, 72 SS 454 and a 70 Malibu) and have studied their prices since I was 18. 1968 is one of the least desirable years for Chevelles, and therefore one of the least valuable. If that car is TOTALLY rust free (by rust I mean holes, not surface rust that requires no metal repair) AND an L34 car then MAYBE he can get that much for it. An L78 car would obviously be worth that much. Unfortunately, 68 SS Chevelles just aren't really well-liked by most of the Chevelle community for some reason. The 375 HP 396 was available from 1965-1970, and out of all those years, the 1968 L78 Chevelles are by far the least valuable. And that 57 definitely looked like it was worth $5k even without a drive train, but most of the other prices were just delusional. $4,500 for that hack-job low-rider 4 door 63 Chevy? But that's nowhere NEAR as bad as asking $8,500 for that 65 El Camino with a big block. I mean that is BEYOND delusional. That is probably TWICE what that car is worth. And I wish this guy was a little more precise regarding that 70 GS vert. Even though I am a lifelong Chevelle guy who also has a soft spot for GTOs (I have a 69 GTO vert right now), my all-time favorite 1964-1972 GM muscle car is a 1970 Buick GS 455/Stage 1. I love that they were considered more "luxury" cars at the time, and yet the 70 Buick GS has such an aggressive, muscular looking body style while still being understated (no stripes or crazy colors, and the functional hood scoops are small and understated as well). This guy calls that car a Stage 1 but according to the badges on the fender that is NOT a Stage 1 car, it is just a GS 455. Not that that means it's not a cool car because it DEFINITELY is, but the difference in value between a Stage 1 convertible and a GS 455 convertible is HUGE. If that is NOT a Stage 1, then $50,000 is DELUSIONAL, just like the majority of his asking prices. Here is the same car, numbers matching/automatic just like his and in much nicer driver/local car show condition for $2,500 less than this guy wants for his car and that car listed in Hemmings likely won't sell for that high a price: www.hemmings.com/classifieds/dealer/buick/gran-sport/1585146.html

I agree Alex S. The reason I like the '68 is it's less expensive then the '69-72 models. I have always had the less expensive classic cars and they are not investments to me. I usually start with junk and sink $5-10K into them and use them for 10-15 years and sell them for $3-5K after 50-80K miles. It's a cool hobby or at least it used to be. I feel as if I am getting robbed when buying NOS parts for my '74 Plymouth. Like Jay Leno says it's really easy to get upside down in an old car. I can also agree with your statement about the GS 455 convertible. You could tell the guy was trying to hide something about it in his mannerisms. He probably knows it's not a Stage 1 car although Tom Cotter said it may have been.

Alex S Cant agree with you more on the prices of these cars. I've owned several Chevelle's in the past with my all time favorite being the 68 elcamino. Total redesign from the 67. In my opinion has the best looking front end out of all the Chevelle's. Why that year is the least favorite among collectors is beyond me.

Wow, that 54 corvette! My fathers friend got one imported to the Netherlands late 80's, he went to America to buy the car and went back later for a hood and an engine. I've seen the car being built and got impressed by its size and speed. Unfortunately my fathers friend died and the car got lost out of my sight, also my father died and now it is a total mystery where the car is right now, as far as i know there are only two of those cars in europe and one is the car of my fathers friend.

What a lot of fantastic cars that will probably never be restored makes me cry

It must be quite depressing seeing all those marvellous cars sitting out in the open rotting away, and they will never see the road again.

This show, The History Guy, and some of Jay Leno, are the reasons I watch KZread when I should be cleaning up the house.

Nice to see some European and Japanese cars get a feature instead of just American!

“Runs and drives” lol, ok fella

I found one of the 61 Sunliners on a farm outside of Greeley Colorado in 87 that had been parked since 72. I put tires on it, fresh gas, pulled the plugs and dripped some oil into the cylinders and a new battery. Fired up and drove it home to Estes Park.

Feel like going to America everytime i watch this episodes! Love this show.

Can't help but think how accurately this series defines America. We used to make great great things that now are rusting into the ground. Yet we hoard them under the delusion we can bring them back. We never will. Hoarders should not be praised - they should be shamed for participating in this crime of deterioration. This idiot owner is quoting prices he couldn't get if they were perfect. How delusional and senile can you get?

Love their idea of “fair” condition...lol

Love that country squire, such a great find!!

One of your best videos. Love the C1 Vette. Also would like to have the Harley Hummer that caught my eye. I owned 2 as a teen. Really liking the Ford wagon you're driving.

Wow! The Berkley. The one I remember had a two stroke engine, with a chain driven front wheel drive. Great memories.

Great barn finds keep it up thanks

Your knowledge of cars is second to none..

Favourite car in this episode? The Renault Alpine seen in the last few minutes of footage.

I came across a guy at a gas station a couple years ago, with a black 1958 impala 2 door, on a trailer. It had a 348 tri power! He had just picked it up for $8 grand.

Awesome episode. This is really what I wait for on KZread....thx for my entertainment!

That 70 GS IS FABULOUS

Fantastic, always good finds...Keep them coming Tom

I noticed you are driving the one off 67 Squire. I have been chasing 1967 CountrySedans since my Pop sold ours in England to a guy returning stateside in 1970 to bring home my Moms 88 L/R. I came close several times but years were off or wrong package to much to far gone wrong time lol. One day the first love will show but with over over 200 other cars have come a gone. I enjoy the show because I love the chase. I still back road back street and look everwhere I go......Safe Travels

I noticed next to the crappy plastic bumper corvette in the "yard that was being cleared"was an SS427 based on the impala that was completely overlooked, the fender badging for that Chevy is unique to that year and model. It also had a domed hood with three false vents in the middle, a very rare car ! I believe a little less than 2,000 were built. It's a shame it wasn't featured

"I want 40 grand.." Yeah, dya think you could take all the piled up boxes off it before hand then?

I'd take the Trans Am for 6k. Hell yeah. Be a nice project to turn it into my personal version of the Bandit
