Nothing better than watch Barn Find Hunter first thing in the morning thanks Tom. 😊

Tom you are one of the few I don't skip thru the video. You do a great job. 😁👍

I had a 70 f100. 3 on the tree. Miss it .

I didn't realize these videos were always filmed in my neck of the woods. I've got a friend that would make for a great episode of this.

They don't ALWAYS film in North Carolina. If you paid attention - - Tom said they film there ONCE a year.....try to stay on topic......

OMG I wish I had the money to purchase that 63 Fairlane as I had one that was red with that 221 back in 1970 when I was in the Marines.I am the same age as this Gentleman

3:03 Sears brand tire, wow! Thanks for the video, very cool.

What a great show Barn Find Hunter is! Tom you have the right touch for these videos. I wish they would post more often.

Great collection. Love those Barracuda's. Back in the early seventies, my older brother owned two '67 Barracuda notchback's. I have been a Mopar fan for life. Those Ford's are so cool too!

Love a slick F100

just picked up a 1964 F100 for the wife. Drove to Davenport, Iowa to grab the Ol lady. Body is absolutely perfect. This truck is rust free. All the rockers, columns, wheel wells, door jams and floorboards are mint. 78,000 original miles. Four on the floor, slant v6.

My Slant 6 Dodge D100 takes exception to your statement ;)

🔍🏎💎 Starting the day with Barn Find Hunter is an absolute thrill! Tom's expertise and passion for uncovering hidden gems make each episode a treasure hunt. It's fascinating to see the variety of classic vehicles he discovers, like the Ford F100, Plymouth Barracuda, and 1963 Ford Fairlane. Can't wait to see what he uncovers next! Thanks for the morning adventure, Tom! 😊👍

When is Tom coming to Connecticut?? He needs to see an incredible amc and hudson yard

Funny how life gets in the way, sometimes even death....

You really couldn't ask for a nicer guy than Tom to present these vids !

Thank you, Tom. You always find some really interesting vehicles to share with us!

The 300 in-line 6 is the best engine ever made….

The Ford F100, Plymouth Barracuda, and 1963 Ford Fairlane featured in this episode are true testaments to the allure of classic cars and their rich histories. Thanks, Tom, for bringing us along on these amazing journeys! 😊

I have a soft spot for Fairlanes. I have a 63 Sportscoupe that has been in the family since it was five years old. It's a rust free driver that has been hotrodded but is in great shape. I do like the hardtop look over the post but I can definitely appreciate all the body styles.

Some amazing finds still out there to be had!😅🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

The Y Block was never a 352. The largest displacement was 312 cubic inches. The 352 was a member of the FE series along with the later 390 and 428.

Great video Tom. I'm always impressed at these lost gems you find.😉

Hey Tom, why don't you ever head down to Spartanburg, Sc? It has a lot of NASCAR history, including Bud Moore's old garage, and a lot of motor heads! Happy hunting!

Very nice Truck and Cars. They we’re really good condition. Frozen in barn. Thank you for showing! 💯👍👊

More excellent stuff, Tom. I have always thought that it was very cool that Ford's first thin wall cast V-8 was the same size as their first flathead V-8 and was released exactly 30 years later.

Old man sounded like Forest Gump, loved to hear it

I cannot believe that anything will be done to those cars...I just don't get the mindset. I love old cars and have had many over the years BUT they all were road worthy. Love Tom Cotter.

Love those old Fords !!!!!

what a great truck.

as a raleigh resident, i’ll leave my studebaker in the driveway in hopes that tom drops by :)

I have a 2002 Subaru WRX. In 2012 I bent a rod pushing way to much boost. I parked it in the garage. Got married, bought a house, got divorced and raised a kid. In 2019 I got a replacement JDM engine and slowly started buying replacement parts. Been watching these vids and realized I am one of these guys. Plan to get my baby back on the road by end of summer. Want to get her repainted over the winter. She used to be my daily but now I will pass her on to my son.

Great episode. Exactly what we want.. Dirt, boxes, rusty tools and cool cars and trucks.

Got a 66 short bed myself with an 87 5.0 and has 414,000 miles . My everyday workhorse. Paid $500.00 put over $43,000 in it 19years ago along with a 427FE. Did an engine swap. 7miles to the gallon was killing me!💸

Life ALWAYS goes by too quickly for true car guys(even then, our brain tells us we can do it but the old body puts on the brakes!😢) 👍

Thanks for posting! Need to make your way over to the Raleigh / Durham area, know of a number of places here.

I was born in 1966 and would LOVE to find a 66 Ford pick up! Cool cars!!

🇺🇸👍 you are right there are people who love the 62-63 221 V8 Fairlane and I am one of them. I have had 4 of them but sadly not one today, maybe someday.

Great finds

Nice collection 😎

Love this show.

Great video Tom.

Greatest Show on KZread!!!

I live in Stanly County, There are a lot of old cars around here. I had a 1968 barracuda, and there is a couple more around. If you want to see more random old cars come out east of charlotte

Modern day construction truck is 75,000k plus and drives like a Cadillac with leather seats!!

Great video

The lightening bolt image on the hood emblem denotes a inline six engine

Love these videos! Keep it coming fellahs!

So much garbage in there that just needs to be let go.

Hagerty my cousin has a 70 challenger been sitting for over 25 years. We live in winterville NC.

So much stuff!!! That the family is going to have to deal with. There is a years work just cleaning out that place. I’ll buy the truck?

🔎🚗🌅 There's something truly captivating about starting the day with Barn Find Hunter. Thanks to Tom, we get to embark on exciting journeys in search of hidden automotive treasures. It's like a thrilling treasure hunt unfolding before our eyes! 😊 The Ford F100 Short Bed, the Plymouth Barracuda with an astounding 367K miles, and the timeless 1963 Ford Fairlane featured in this video are just a glimpse of the remarkable finds awaiting us. Let's dive into the world of classic cars and see what stories they have to tell! 🏆🔍

This presenter has a lovely style; obviously knows loads but doesn’t come across as arrogant. 👍

I appreciate Hagerty giving those of us, who don't necessarily want a bunch of flash and bang in our automotive hobby, entertainment like Tom here With BFH and Davin with errr, whatever they're calling his show this week. 🙂 Best shows on Hagerty, those two... This week, Phil was a delightful host. Very humble and quite willing to share. Typical southern gentleman (most of us down here are, less a bunch of yankee infiltrators of late 🙂). *BTW Hagerty, I think membership in your Drivers Club should come with being a Hagerty customer!* Lots of years I've been sending those fat checks to Hagerty for coverage; seems the least they could do, eh? - Ed on the Ridge

I love the 63 can't find them in my area much any more, I would love to know how much he is asking for it.

Nice

The man I worked for had a 66 . Ford never could get it to jumping out of park so my dad made him a string to fit on gear shift and it stayed that for years .

Nothing is more frustrating than to do a great barn. Find in here I’m restoring it or I’m gonna do this and you know nothing will ever happen to it. My dream is I’m gonna boss 429 to 427 cover but I don’t think that’s gonna happen either.

If you have to apologise before opening the garage door then you must feel ashamed of never cleaning up. It's such a shame that there are these lovely machines gathering dust and used as a temporary skip. In one weekend, he could clear away most of his junk and at least see his vehicles. Cheers Tom. Love your vids.👍

I would not mind that Ford Fairlane, but my heart is in love with that 1966 Ford F-100. Reason being is that truck is an almost identical twin for my 1965 Ford F-100. Only thing it needs to be identical is to be a step side, and to have a 240 inline six. And is the kind of truck, I’d commit murder just to pay for. I so wish I had never sold that 1965 Ford F-100, and was sick the day I did sale it. I cried the day that detective paid me for that truck, and drove off with it.

Nice nice

Fords big 6 is legendary for a reason. They last forever.....unless you revved it too high, they do not like high rpm.

I like the show and decided to edit my previous comment . I apologize to your camera people. Obviously they are fantastic at what they do and 15 % of it, i think is imaginative, and extremely well done. They really know how to use their tools, and are truly great at their job. So please do not fire them. Just please ask them to do the other 85% with scenery , cars , or buildings, but mostly cars , trucks , garage walls , and nice dogs perhaps , etc. I would urge them , to please try to comprehend and understand, that we the audience, love to view Tom briefly and each his many hosts ...briefly as well. A proper introduction of course, and please pay them as much respect and courtesy as they require, because they become a huge part of the story with this new important link. They can keep talking...but the cameras should be turning toward the BARN & the CARS , TRUCKS, TRACTORS , and how about BIKES ???? Consider that, whatever Tom and his host are talking about , is what we should be looking at through your camera and your eyes ! Hopefully an older masterpiece of engineering and beauty. Tom is a fine looking man and very knowledgeable on things that I'm happy to learn. Don't like to hear him say something disparaging like not bad 'for a Mopar ' , lol. I get it though. You don't know what you don't know, but there's a n awful lot of us Mopar folk. Dodge ...the Magnificent and amazing Dodge brothers, their history with their many historic partnerships & amalgamations , tend to be fascinating and exciting to hear. Tom's a Ford man , so I shall learn about Fords, Jags, Fiats, Datsuns , MG, Triumphs, etc, etc. but he should do himself a huge favor, too. Learn more about the magnificence of Dodge. Afterall, he's like a teacher and are we not his students ???? And, Attention to at least identify any motorbikes would also be tremendously appreciated. For sale $$$??? So CAMERA MAN Or MAYBE EDITOR ??? PLEASE REMEMBER TO "POINT ZEE CAMERA " : UNDER THE HOODS. IN THE INTERIOR. ON THE SHIFTER. PEDALS. OH SO SLOWLY ALL ACROSS THE DASH. ON THE TIRES AND THE WHEELS . FRONT GRILL AND BUMPERS . REAR TAIL LIGHTS, BUMPER, EXHAUST TIPS ... TRUNK LID . Admittedly, these items are not always accessible or available, but please, show us what we want to really see if and whenever possible. And seeing "454" zoomed in on 3 times , that was twice too many. Sorry I'm not saying this nasty, all friendly. . Get motivated. Show some hustle. Get us what we need to see ! 3 Cheers for best future efforts !!! Thanks Very Much for allowing me to rant. I'm too old to do anything else. Cheers and God Bless All ! (PS : Please be ready by simply believing , in God's Son, Jesus Christ . I am personally convinced, that He will be returning very, very soon) If I am good enough to get to heaven by believing, you'll have no problem either!

I really wonder if this guy will ever do anything with any of these cars except for eventually sell them.

Guys like this are all alike. The always say they're going to restore their vehicles that they've been stupid enough to let them sit for decades, rotting away. Then they have people come over to look at the cars while he tells his tales. Sick man.

Short beds are not rare in Mexico. That was the only body style sold for decades.

I gotta say, Personally, it infuriates me when someone covers their classic cars with garbage, fills them with garbage, and treats them like garbage. Maybe its because after 20-50 years of this kind of treatment, my customers bring them to me and say "can you fix this". Cover your car, lift it off its suspension, and drain the gasoline. Show that you care.

Can't be the original engine in the Barracuda.
