Barn finds, a year in review of what's been pulled out, put up for sale, or auctioned off

 That is a barn, sometimes they are easy to distinguish, and sometimes, they look like a lot of wood in a vague pile that might have space under it

 Inside you mghight find a pile of stuff... like the above 1961 Renault Carvelle, or even better the below 1956 Jaguar xk 140.

 Or sometimes you might just see that pile has a tail light under it. Right in the above photo to the bottom left

 or the above pile with a hood and a bit of windshield

 turns out to be a 1969 GTO

 Look in the back, a lot of people are not happy about every poor out of money dreamer asking if they want that car hauled away, and so they pushed it around to the back of the garage

 or threw a tarp over it. Above, a 68 Mustang, below, a Boss 302 Mustang

So.. that is about all you need to know about barnfinds, now, here are the ones that were up for sale last year
