Yup, another San Fransisco barn find...

So today i found a cool looking barn just north of San Jose off the freeway on my way back from the airport,... knowing me i looked in, around, on top, and underneath it. what i found was a m***ive tarp covering an old white and black car, and some older cars loaded up behind a wood fence...

The covered car had been listed and taken off, and listed, etc...

You know the story;
It wasnt for sale, then it was, then it wasnt, then it was, you know how it goes.

Today it was for sale.

I plopped down some cash and walked out of this guys barn with 2 cars.


Brought them both home today, both are running and just needs some ***embly...

Who wants to come over to my garage and help me bolt her together?

 

Score!!!

 

that thing is cool

 

well done!
of course im alittle bi***ed when it comes to early packards.

 

Just fantastic!

 

Nice...............Two times nice!......................

 

Love both of them....my 63 Rivi was one of my all-time favorites rides. Congrats & ENJOY!

 

You hit the jackpot! Nice find and score!

 

Nice one. That Packard has got to worth a fortune restored.

 

I'm having a hard time believing you find all this stuff...

 

I hardly ever bluff and i never lie. dont believe me? i put up a open invitation to any HAMBer to come to my shop, any weekend, hang out, ill even buy ya a beer!

 

That Packard is a Coupe with the top cut off.

 

Cool find, but if that yard is in San Francisco, that is probably about $3-4M worth of dirt those cars are sitting on. I'm guessing more down towards the San Jose area judging by the surroundings. I don't know anyone who can park a few semi trailers on their lot in SF with tons of room to spare for dozens more if needed.

 

Damn...nice find fo'sure!!

 

nope the 120s have a pillars on the doors, google it, unless your teasing me on purpose...

 

yup, damn your good, just north of san jose.

 

Lucky guess on the San Jose part, but also just finding a barn in SF alone would be almost a miracle, let alone some sweet cars to go with it.

 

If cl***ic roadsters and early Rivs grow out of that dirt, I'd say that's about right... Just wondering tho, if you water it with Hi-Test, will it sprout Hemi's or Shelby's?

 

**** photobucket is going failing me!

 

What cars??

 

Is there pics somewhere?

 

Photobucket sometimes does that when you exceed your bandwidth. Upgrade to a pro account [ripoff] or upload the pics from your hard drive directly onto the HAMB.

No need to repost either, just go back and edit your original post.

 

Thanks I thought it was just me ,with concrete in my eyes

 

I was moving my mouse around trying to get anything to pop up !

 

No pics!

 

film at 11?

 

wtf.....there ain't no barns out there.
what kind of beer you buying ?

 

The pics were on earlier. Where did they go?

 

OK, you pulled a good one. Now, how about posting some pictures of what you bought.
