We&#8217;ve seen plenty of barn finds over the years, but we don&#8217;t often see something like this. Posted recently to YouTube on the <em>Classic Car Rescue<\/em> channel, we&#8217;re looking at what could be a million-dollar collection of cars in various states of repair gathering dust. In fact, two cars alone in this sea of iron could crack the $1 million mark. More on that in a bit.<\/p>\n<p>First off, no this isn&#8217;t a barn. The term <em>barn find<\/em> has evolved to encompass any automotive discovery of an abandoned or forgotten nature, and that includes a claimed 200-plus collection stacked into an old warehouse. The video title states this is an old museum, but whatever it is, this is home to a mighty impressive collection of classics.<\/p>\n<p>Where do we start? The video opens with classic American muscle, namely a pair of first-generation Camaros with a red Shelby Mustang \u2013 possibly a 1969 GT500 \u2013 in between. We see<em> many<\/em> more Mustangs throughout the nine-minute clip, including a rare 1968 Shelby GT500KR convertible. Provided it&#8217;s not a clone or replica, it&#8217;s one of just 518 produced and it could be quite valuable. A red 1968 KR recently sold through Barrett-Jackson for $205,000.<\/p>\n<p>And that&#8217;s just the tip of the proverbial iceberg. The video takes us past numerous American classics from the 1950s and 1960s, including a sea of big-fin-era Cadillacs. There are also numerous sedans and coupes from the 1920s and 1930s, and not all of them are American. The video zooms in on a classic Rolls-Royce, and later on we glimpse a Volvo P1800. Looking for something more modern? Check out the Mercedes G-Class partially under a cover, not to mention the Dodge Dakota convertible pickup truck that launched in the late 1980s.<\/p>\n<p>And then we come to the Auburns. Wait,<em> what?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yes, there could be a pair of Auburn Boattail Speedsters sitting in a corner of the warehouse, parked near the Camaros we mentioned at the start of the video. We strongly emphasize <em>could be<\/em> here, because these cars are exceedingly rare and valuable and as such, replicas do exist. The video footage isn&#8217;t clear enough to capture detail, and sadly we never get a close-up look. But the light blue model has markings similar to those of a supercharged Boattail. To showcase how wild it would be to find one collecting dust in an old warehouse, a 1935 851 SC Speedster sold at auction earlier this year for $747,500.<\/p>\n<p>The video doesn&#8217;t offer any information regarding the history of these cars, who might own them, or where the building is. Considering what&#8217;s inside, the location is probably best kept a secret. Hopefully, someone steps in soon to bring these classics back to life.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.motor1.com\/news\/686586\/big-barn-find-rare-mustangs-cadillacs-rolls-royce-auburn-millions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Friends, you better sit down for this one.
