haven't seen this Barnfind 911 in two years, but now it has a story board

first gallery at http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2011/11/college-and-racetrack-porsche-911.html

the barn find 427 SC Shelby AC Cobra, CSX 3047 spent most of the last 25 years on storage

and the photo below is of the top of the air filter pie tin.

the word on the Jockey Journal is that the company of Stelling and Hellings went out of business in the 60's,  and sold air filter housings, and motorcycle handlebars http://www.jockeyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10084

I learned of this last november: http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2012/11/anthony-boosalis-found-65-cobra-427-sc.html

A barnfind Diamond T that's been buried since 1965 among a families things in their barn brings a Bonneville connection

 Not very clearly written out on the webpage with these images is that this barnfind Diamond T was one of a few sold by the Utah dealership that was Ab Jenkins sponsor and trucking help during his Mormon Meteor II Bonneville record setting runs.

Above is from the same dealership, and since I've never posted a Diamond T tow truck, I had to do it.

the last 4 are from my post about the movie "Boys of Bonneville" http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2012/07/movie-review-of-boys-of-bonneville-in.html?showComment=1366481639147#c7656346948366419572

the barnfind Evinrude outboard powered bicycle, up close with details. Found in the Don Laughlin Museum exhibit

my best guess is that the outboard motor, through a flex drive, operates a reduction gear housing hidden from view by the front fender, but the drive wheel can be seen riding on the front wheel in the above photo, through a cut out in the fender. An idler wheel rolls a v drive belt via a shaft, and that spins the cooling fan in front of the radiator.

this might have been stored since the moment some mom had the scare of her life seeing her boy ride it.

Evinrude seems to have made, or licensed its name to bicycles: http://thecabe.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?16024-Finally-find-a-good-bike-and-its-a-darned-boys-bike&p=79860#post79860

Yellow Bullet.com has a thread going about cars found in barns, fields, garages and backyards...

A Baldwin Motion

Just a reminder that critters and snakes all love the secret hiding spots in cars, and I've seen a couple photos of mean snakes that are hanging out under the hood waiting for you to pop it open.

Some people wait a lifetime to find a great car, some find it when they are a teen, and wait a lifetime to won it. Mark was a fortunate rarity, he got both the car he desired 30ish years ago, and it's a barnfind 1969 GT 500 Shelby Mustang

photos from http://www.teamshelby.com/forums/index.php/topic/71189-barn-find-gt500/

Mark's neighbor was an attorney that owned 3 Shelby Stangs, acquiring each as payment on cases, and this was the one he drove the most and damaged in the early 80's, and then parked it in the warehouse over his office. Once it went into the freight elevators and into that warehouse it was off the radar... til the attorney finally mentioned selling it to the single person that could reunite it with the once teenage neighbor kid

The original 428 was blown early, and replaced with a 390, but the sale went through at 25 thousand to Mark, because he'd known the seller since the 80's and the seller knew it was going to a good home finally

Info from Muscle Car Review dec 2012 issue

Barnfind L29 Cord... still has the WW2 gas rations sticker on the windshield

the story of the car, stored and not touched since 1952, all 60 years of sitting there were because some kids vandalized it and broke the heart of the guy who had just bought it, and galleries of photos at http://www.l-29cord.com/html/perry1.html

Did you like the posts about collections in barnfinds, the collections of cars that were found to have been neglected for decades? Well, here is another. In Belgium, and it's all Alfa Romeos

These are good photos, but there is another great set at http://timster1973.wordpress.com/2012/11/09/the-lost-alfas/ who says there are only 6 cars.

First it was the Sleeping Beauty collection of the Schlumpf bothers, then the welded shut collection of the variety of cars bought up by a collector when they were cheap, in Portugal. Now, this group of cars in a Belgian Castle. Cool world we live in, and interesting finds are still happening.

The original source website is dead. Well, it might just be having issues, but it doesn't seem to work. http://www.28dayslater.co.uk/ and so I learned about this on http://sucksqueezebangblow-juice.blogspot.com.br who posted it a month ago

A couple photos are at http://www.wernerschijvenaars.nl/gallery/71988 but they aren't as good as these ones, and provide no info

A Shelby Cobra Dragonsnake has been pulled out of the barn, probably the last forgotten Cobra Dragonsnake we'll hear of

The last factory built Dragonsnake to be a barn find, spent the last 30 years in a garage in Anaheim. It was raced at Monterey in 1974, then stored away... and the owner just left it alone.

It's one of 2 factory built with the 325 hp Stage III d Competition 289's. Only 6 DragonSnakes were built
