That was a really good Barn Find adventure. GOD bless that young man for all he survived and his wonderful attitude. His parents did good.

Sam appears to be a real gentleman who appreciates the finest of cars and antiques. Best wishes for him and his father 👍🏼

As a parent I love to see the love a a kid has for automobiles. Congratulations to his parents and you for your KZread channel. Good job.

Glad to see you on this side of the pond! And congrats to the “kid” for his passion and for preferring restoring an Oldtimer to an evening with a VIP. And good luck and best wishes to him!

Just great episodes filmed in the UK, love seeing these

My dad had one of these A35s when my parents first got married. He still mentions it from time to time. He's 94 now.

That last Jaguar 4-door was awesome, taking into consideration that Queen drove it herself at one point.

What a lovely family, best of luck to them.

Good job Cliff, Sam glad you are better health,

sam seems to be such a special person, brought tears to my eyes to be honest, great story, I really love this UK version Tom, seriously

I love the fact that there are car guys the world over, our garage's all look the same, our hearts love the cars the same. This world could use more of this in All aspects of life. Long live us car guys (and gals)...

While the English are so often portrayed and "stodgy and formal", it always such a treat to interact with those who possess the wit and humor displayed by these "gentlemen"!! 👍👍👍

Great episode. Please pull the briars off that Cortina!

Unreal that Sam mate.👍🏻

Tom and All The Crew: thanks, interesting, & some good stories and History.....

It was a real treat to visit and meet these nice people through your travels. Keep up the tour! Fantastic videos

I am restoring a 1951 Austin A40 Countryman ......good to see this thanks from Canada

I owned an A35 . It used to develop a steering shake over 35mph; it was steering linkage. I had so much fun in it. I'm glad you're enjoying this example.

Great episode !!! Sam seems like an exceptional young man & he has a great Dad :-) I learned to drive in a 67 Jag E-Type & 72 MGB but 1 of my dream cars is a Jag Mk. 2 :-)

A proper Brit for passing up the Pimp My Ride opportunity

The whole "pimp my ride mentality" has ruined our society never mind cars.

Although not the primary focus of your visit, it was good to see the Golden Hawk. I hope the owner decides to save it or sell it to someone who will put it back on the road somewhere in the world!

They are called TC Ford Cortina's here in Australia and there are still PLENTY of them here. You mostly see them as Drag cars, havent seen one on the road in years though

Sam....you are one cool dude. Hats off to you bro. Appreciate seeing your ride. Cheers!

Love it when you come to our side of the pond. You have a great sense of humour and you need it when talking to a Brit, keep on going I look forward to watching your channel.

Very nice for someone to help his son out a true car guy. Fog machine I thought no its England my mistake

This particular episode brought back memories. I grew up in New Zealand in the 60/70s where British cars ruled. The A35 is a unbeautiful example of 1950s Brit cars. My favourite, should I ever find one to buy, is the 1950s Ford Popular. I have a friend who owns a genuine Ford Mexico which he rallies every now and then. Keep up the great adventures for us.

Very cool-thank you, Tom and crew!

Tom, As always you bring us the best. Great couple of guys.

I admire how the English respect the heritage of things. Something that is lost in the USA. I wish more youth took interest in working with their hands. Best of luck to the young man !!!

In 1921 my Grandfathwer got his 1st driving license in a Model T ford .a few years later the car got destroyed when it stalled on train tracks and got flattened by a train .He didnt drive again until 1973 when he picked up a nice Black A35 and drove it until he passed,at the wheel of his beloved Austin,as it happened he had pulled over off the road.

MK1 Mex, 2 door Tina. Great episode lads.

Barn find and Redline are two great shows from Hagerty.

I like cars and I am not a people person, but what makes this such a great show time and again is seeing Tom meeting all these great people and hearing their car stories.

Truly enjoyed this Tom. Glad you're finding some cars to video. Nice people these racers.

Mt dad had bought a second hand, dark green van version in 1968. We lived in Camden Town then. I was only a small kid and he was always asking me to help him with it. I think he really wanted the Austin A40. Nice small old british car.

Loving the Uk version more than the regular show

Thank you Tom, this is the only way most of us will ever be exposed to the other side of the Pond. Good stuff!!!!!

Always absolutely thrilled to see a video from you guys keep up the great work cannot wait to see what you find next

Might be my favorite episode

Fantastic, nice to see you here in England!

Loved this episode! I own a ‘65 S-type Jaguar and is so nice to see one in this episode!!!

Great drive around and interesting people you met. All the best Bob (Triumph enthusiast).

That was a neat trip! The Brit's have some very neat collectible cars! I grew up in Australia and my parent's owned a couple Cortina's, a couple Morris Minor's, the first car they owned there was a Falcon station wagon. We had some cars then that I would love to have now. Good video!

Love the series...bout time you came to the UK. Some fab cars around. Looking forward to seeing what you find

Great episode! I hope you found a Ford Capri while traveling around the UK :) I am waiting for it!

Great stuff! I love those old Jags.

Sam, well done and i love your passion for the car. Good luck

Love the show and learning a lot thanks for sharing and enjoy it very much and God Bless y’all.

Top-notch episode, my man.

Well done to the young man. Good on you, and i love the A35 and the A30.

Tom pokes fun about his racing buddy's skills. Next episode Tom changes name of Barn Find to "Good walking shoe find hunter"....lol.. GREAT sHOW !

So awesome car's, wow and the car owned by the queen 😱 be awesome to see them restored and back on the road 😀👍🏾👍🏾

Great to see Tom over here in the UK. Can tell this was filmed earlier in the year as there's not a cloud in the sky today and it's +26C and will be +29/30C the next two days.

Great Video, great to see the barn find hunter in the UK :-)

Thank you for including the Subaru Wagon!!

Love the British episodes.

I love the looks of the A35 and my Mum and Step-Dad loved them to, so many moons ago they had 1 each. Sadly that love ended when they both had serious crashes in them within a few years of each other my Mum walked away from hers but my step-dad was in a coma for 3 months, when he come round he had lost 15 years of memory which over time he got back all but the last 3, but he never drove again.

Wish I'd known you were coming, know of some hidden gems....

And there's a Studebaker in the garden. A bit of South Bend becoming dirt in the UK.

Good for you all.

Good value nice video keep coming thanks for you 👍

Some rubbish is talked about 2dr Mk5 cortina's a few years ago it was 11 left now 6! They were only avl in base & L trim levels for the UK market with the 1.3 ohv eng & 4 speed gearbox ( a 1.6 ohc with automatic transmission was avl to special order for disabled drivers through the government motobility scheme). The 2dr was the very lowest spec version of the range through the 3 1/2 year production run probably 10,000ish were made with around 50-100 surviving most have been fitted with the more common 2.0 ohc eng & higher trim specifications. 28 convertibles where made (one prototype 1.3 in red made by crayford which belongs to the chairman of the crayford owners club) then a further 27 under licence by carbodies of Coventry ( who make the black London taxi cab) these where all fitted with 1.6/2.0 ohc or 2.3 V6 cologne engines & GL (middle of the range ) trim except 1 with range topping Ghia trim & was displayed at the motor show , 1 LHD car was made & survives on the continent. 16 are thought to survive I own #9 the only 1.6 automatic version ,two definitely no longer exist. The rarest 2dr mk 5 Cortina is the ford ex-works 3.0 rally car that campaigned during 1981 & then in private hands until 1989 since which it's believed to have been in storage. Keep up the otherwise great work tom & look forward to your next book. Craig of the Sheffield Cortina Centre.

Unfortunately it's not seen as a "real" classic like othe mass produced cars (some even newer) like mgbs, Porsches,jags etc. Like that poor MK1 escort Mexico that even in that state is more sort after & valuable than most of those jags around it & definitely once repaired.

@@craigwalker8260 People looking for 2 doors usually don't care about spec, most want them because they look better, 2 door mk4s are even rarer though and imo look better than the mk5 which always has a "surprised look from the front with its taller glass. My cousin and I had well over 100 Mk3/4/5 Cortinas between us growing up, mostly modified in some way and had some old dogs that are super rare now.

Fantastic episode

Finally part 2. 2 weeks that felt like a month

been following you since the beginning hope you keep making these videos 👍🙏

Another great episode from my side of the pond Tom 👌🏼 I hope you’re getting use to driving on the left side of the road in a RHD car 👍🏼😎

Love it great film yet again..

Well I’m glad at last that somebody is saying the S Type is a better car than the mk 2 😎

Oh that poor Mexico 😥 I hope that gets fixed soon.i owned an AVO Mexico in 1990 which had been fully restored and I LOVED that car,it was so nice that the local police used to stop me just to look at it.3 months after I bought it the Mexico was stolen from my driveway and was never seen again and I cried my heart out, such a beautiful car.

If you're still in the UK you are more than welcome to come and see my farm full of Toyotas. Barn finds, race cars, project cars, you nname it.

Great Story!

walking up to the car sitting in the middle of a paddock ...This is mine...the queen used to drive it ...

Lovely clip

good stuff, although the XJ wants to be under cover asap, nice story about the A35 too

Good stuff!

The v-8 in the stag is two four cylinder banks identical to the four cylinder found in the SAAB 99.

I love that Cortina

The Studebaker for me please, still lovely and solid next to our English rust buckets

Miss these episodes I'd love to see longer episodes or more frequently uploaded videos, fan from the great white north eh.

Tom. Loving these videos. Fantastic. Please let there be more. Did you visit other parts of the UK. 😀👍

I wish you could come over to sweden, we have lots of funny cars

This is just to cool

i want one of those sweaters!

Tom. You missed the opportunity to discover the TVR collections in the NW UK..Car Guys in the USA always ask about them

that looks like it was painted buy Garry from Ital coachworks in wembly thats my friend Garry in the picture!! top guy and great bodyshop

The states, same.

It brilliant seeing all these Jaguars and MG's, but what I really want to know is whats the story of that Series 2A 88in Landrover at 19.09? Please let us know!

The Queen had the right idea, if you want a reliable daily driver Jag, buy two.

The difference between the US and UK, as far as car collection is concerned, is that in the US land is cheap and cars are really plentiful and interesting and in the UK not many people have the space to store cars and what is available is just too rotten or boring. That said, these guys were great car types and Jags are very interesting indeed, because they have the heritage and racing history. Needless to say finds like this, especially in and around London, are almost impossible to find, because all the land is bought up for development by greedy property types and what is left is just too expensive - having that much land attached to a home in England, especially around London would put it well outside the reach of ordinary people! Nice episode though, but I look forward to your return to the USA - nothing personal you understand old boy.

You seem to have stumbled onto a treasure trove of these TWR Jags. Maybe these guys can help the other guy resurrect his? Small world!

That escort mexico was the fizz

nice car

keeping on the A35 theme i helped rae build the red rocket which won the St marys race in 2004
