Perhaps because people park cars in barns but they do not store gold in barns would be a good reason. Gold would typically be found in a safe, and for obvious reasons, these don't get forgotten about, or don't get published when somebody finds the abandoned gold.
I guess they don't teach common sense to Ferrari carbon fibre technicians but do implant tin foil into their brain cavities! The owner is still alive and knew they were there. He just neglected them for 25 years. What's so hard to understand about that? An affluent car enthusiast in the middle of his life buys a bunch of nice cars, drives them for 10 or 15 years by which time he's retired and barely using them anymore. Then his mechanic has his acccident and they are left collecting dust. The years fly by and before you know it he's an old man. Finally, when he's shipped off to a nursing home where he reminisces over his beloved collection. There he asks his trusted friend to sell up his home and contents and see that the cars in particular are taken care of and go to a good home. Barn finds are called in. Case closed.
Peter Jones I know. It’s like we are there in the garage listening to the conversation and the natural sounds of the vehicle being opened and viewed. I wish more channels would follow this example. Good comment.
Wow life came full circle for you from writing a book about a Cobra to finding a Cobra in such awesome shape. Awesome is really an understatement for such a find and the show.
Wow ... mind blowing!! Omg ... you’ve said it man ... any Chevy , Ford or Dodge person would’ve dream to find a AC 427 Cobra in a neglected barn ... you blow my Australian brains out dude !! Cannot top this one up ! “The ultimate found “
Tom i cant imagine how you must have reacted finding out that this has been sitting for so long in your home state. Truly the Barn Find of Barn Finds!!
My jaw never left the ground for the entire length of this video. When the garage door is opened, it's like a dream come true. All I can say is, "WOW"!
Yet ANOTHER fantastic Barn Find Hunter episode! The ONLY problem is that the episodes are always too damn short! I could watch this program literally all damn day! MORE, please!
They are most likely sitting stored in a collection never to be driven again. I think that’s a shame as these care are ment to be driven, but I understand their rarity and value may prohibit some driving them.
I hope you filmed the rest of the cars and do another video about them. As well as try to get the owner to speak about them, he must have some interesting stories. This could have been a hour or 2 long video and I would have gladly watched.
Thankyou for this Treasure my only complaint (minor ) is i am that British Guy Nut and you just glossed over the Morgan and Triumph i understand the significance of the Ferrari and the Cobra 100% the entire Video and Collection is definitely going to be difficult to top in this Lifetime but i imagine you will keep trying i’ am very appreciative as now i am Disabled and not actively involved with some of my Lifelong Passions i use TH-cam as a form of my Entertainment since i’m retired with a lot of free time available
Completely agree, this could be made into a full documentary. I would happily sit for hours and watch those beautiful cars come to life. Perhaps Hagerty could make some follow-up programs about the entire story of this amazing find... please.
A few corrections: the Ferrari wasn't purchased from the original owner. The NC owner bought it from my friend, who was the second USA owner and lived in upstate NY, in ~1985. The car didn't have 13,000 original miles when found in the garage, as it had ~19k miles when my friend sold it. Of course, the 275 was sold at a Gooding Auction and then restored by Motion Products in WI, subsequently winning an award at Pebble Beach.
It's my favorite pastime, looking for old cars. I love your shows. My dad Bob Ormiston used to work for George Barris Custom Rods and helped build the Munster Machine and the Pink Panther Mobile and Sunny and Cher Mustangs and a few others I can remember the goofy names but I have pictures of my dad and George and these wacky cars from back in the day.
Surprising that the Goodyear Wingfoot radials on the Cobra still hold air, those were the tires to have before the Eagle VRs came out in the mid eighties for many American performance cars.
What a great video! I was an officer for the California Highway Patrol for 27 years, and from time to time I was dispatched to a residence to do a VIN verification for a car owner so they could register it after the vehicle had been out of DMV registration for a number of years. In my career I dreamed of going to a house with a garage like this one, but it never happened. The closest I ever came was doing a VIN verification for a 1958 or 59 Ford Sunliner in the '80's.
"A 1966 Ferrari 275 GTB which raked in $2,530,000 including commission. The 275 was of the long-nose, torque-tube type and came from the same collection as the 1967 Shelby 427 Cobra also found in the auction, which sold for $1,045,000."
I really thought the Ferrari would go for much more than this as not only are they impossible to find, this one is almost like new with only 13k on the engine. Who ever bought it got a great deal. One could argue that having a 2 cam instead of the normal 4 cam would hurt the price-I say that makes this version rarer and worth more money.
when i was a kid I rode in the serial no.1 427 cobra. it was at Carlisle ford car show and if you gave a donation the owner took you for a little ride. the car was only worth 1.5 million at the time, in sure it's worth much more now. best experience of my life and made me way more interested in cars as a kid.
A bloody Morgan! I’m Malvern, born and bred, and to think that car on my screen has made it all the way from my home town of which I still live in, all the way to that guy’s garage in the states is bonkers!! For anyone that doesn’t know, Morgan is a completely hand made, luxury car that is only and always has been made in a single factory in my home town, Malvern.
4.43 Ferrari Logo with NART & a gtb/2, as far as I know this is a very rare model of the 275 wich is allready rare... You should call Wayne Carini or Ferrari in Italy for more info
In 1973, when right out of grad school and starting my first "real" job, I was offered an original small block Cobra for $2500. It was a roller. It was complete but had been in an accident and, as I recall, nearly all of the body panels were missing. I knew it was a great deal but it was out of reach for me, so I passed. Should have borrowed the money and put it away. Now, today, even as a complete "roller" it would be great to have on display.
he mentioned the morgan and if I heard him correctly , he said it had a V8 in it, which I found odd.Some of those were wooden chassis. or part wood. similar to the early Triumps.
Such statements as vinyl and Ferrari speak of the ignorance that is apparent in the level of knowledge witnessed, sacrilege that they even get to see the Ferrari much less drive
0228mustang you better hope that those mice didn't get ahold of any of the wiring in that Triumph. Oh what the heck, like they could do any more damage than Triumph did when they built it
All home market and global export TR6s with the exception of the US were equipped with the same Lucas mechanical fuel-injection that was installed on the TR-5, consequently they performed far better than the carburetted version imported into the States.
I love ALL old vehicles and I see them peaking out of barns, garages or just setting out in the weather every day as I drive my Freightliner all over the country. I'd LOVE to be able to rescue all of them but there was one that I just HAD to save. I'm a truck guy and a GMC truck guy to the bone. I already had a 1975 Gentleman Jim that my grandpa bought new. My family and I have been working on for several years to bring it back to it's former glory (we're almost finished). I kept passing by this old farm in Georgia on my regular route seeing a blue/silver GMC beside the barn. I knew in my heart it was a Beau James but never had time to stop. Long story short...I had to deadhead back to Ohio a few years back. I stopped to ask about the old truck next to the barn and yes it was for sale. I took a good look and determined that it was in fact an original Beau James. I turned the crank to be sure then agreed on a price, dropped my step deck and went to the bank for cash. When I got back I aired up the tires, winched the truck onto my trailer. My Gentleman Jim is almost ready for paint and the Beau James is next on the list. Only 1500 of each ever built and I have both!
Amazing. And so complete. It's both exciting and a bit sad to see them in that condition. Those cara are so incredible, it would be an honor just to clean and detail them. If it was possible, I would and not charge a dime just for the experience.
Some years ago my elderly neighbors garage door was open,a very quiet peaceful lady that was a retired teacher. In her garage was a Parade green 1957 Chrysler 300c Hemi Conv just hidden away. Her and her late husband bought it new in 1957and they was also married in it. Some years later I asked hey what'd you do with the old car and she said i donated it to my church.
I am in my late 60's like all of these rich guys that want to buy back their memories, but I have pictures with all of these cars from 55 to 72 , that I owned, All I have left now are my 1959 and 60 Eldorado Biarritz convertables. Didn't know they were worth as much. Never sell them. Liked your videos...
In the summer of 1970, I was at my girlfriend's apartment when I heard a car start outside. I said to myself, "I'm pretty sure I know what that is!" I went outside and, sure enough, I was correct. It was a 1962 Corvette Fuel Injection model...and it was for sale. Roman Red with a matching interior. Car was dead stock and in great condition except for some odd wheel covers. I mentioned the wheel covers to the owner and he said, "Oh, I've got the original hub caps in the trunk." He popped the trunk and there they were. Trunk was a bit cluttered but in great shape. He had purchased the car from the original owner. I asked him why he was selling it and he said he was tired of it, was getting married and needed the money. The price (and I'll never forget this) was $999.00. I passed on this because I didn't have the money. There is hardly a week go by that I don't regret my decision from that summer day so long ago.
Amazed at the lack of security on that garage all those years and these gems just sitting there in plain view through the broken windows and rear door.
I knew the e30 would be passed over, but a little shoutout would have been cool. They may have been mass produced, but they are becoming a hot collector car now. Glad I picked up my 325is before prices got ridiculous.
@@CaptainFALKEN 8k? Try 100k for an M3 in decent condition. It's not an M3 tho. It's a relatively rare AWD 325i E30. No one really cares about those in the BMW community.
Sure loved this one find show! Haven't watched Hagerty in a while now, and this is the reward I get! The Triumph and the Morgan are the icing on the cake.
The Cobra ismy dream car of course! Tom has most of his Cobra facts correct. I cant believe that nobody noticed a VERY IMPORTANT emblem on the Ferrari!? That car is more valuable than they think! on the rear tail panel is an emblem in blue designating N.A.R.T. North American Racing Team there are very few N.A.R.T. cars in existance. a few years ago a 275GTB SPYDER N.A.R.T. car, 1of 10 made sold for $27,000,000! this long nose alloy w/a Colombo 2 cam V-12 N.A.R.T. coupe is even more rare! research shows that Scaglietti only imported 6 275GTB/2 COUPE'S to U.S.A. under the N.A.R.T. program.
Wow... Just Wow... I Love the 275. The Triumph and Morgan are nice finds on their own. But that Cobra! If I could only have one weekend car and money was no object it would be a 427 Cobra like this one. Unreal.
A e30 m3 is worth 50 to 100k now . The one in the video isn't a m3 . My first car was a e36 the best generations of the 3 series was the e30, e36,e46, far as cosmetic looks also the e92
Don't get me wrong, I love regular E30's they are one of my favorite cars of all time, but they are a mass produced mid tier sedan. They are getting a little harder to find these days cause many of them have been hacked up into track cars or beaten to death, but they aren't exactly rare. Worth about 3 grand.
All I have to say is WOW W what an AMAZING find those cars are absolutely Epiccc. Absolutely love the cobra and Ferrari twin cam, but keep the episodes coming I absolutely love the episodes
Yep, he drives by 1021 East Blvd (notice the orange building) and then 2101 Sherwood Ave. Not sure of the exact address of this garage though. Would love to drive by it it it's still standing. There's been a lot of tear downs for new builds in that neighborhood.
Why are people so surprised he didn't feature the E30? E30's, while one of my favorite cars, are mass produced and not exactly rare. Worth less than 10k. It's also a 325ix, and those are like the unwanted red headed stepchild in the BMW enthusiast community.

You need to get medical assistance.
I’ve been checking my garage for a forgotten cobra for years. I’ll keep y’all updated.
🤣🤣🤣 My garage sucks. No cobra-just mice. 🤬
I found mine... It was in the basement. .. Is it suppose to have "Hot Wheels" printed on the bottom?
Find anything yet?
Anything yet?
Set a Cobra trap. Caught 3 last week
Even more of a pleasure to watch because there was no irrelevant background music, just the conversation and the imagination. Purrfect!
Yeah, the 'slow mo shot + heavy electronica' get a little old.

Was that the one with the mustang?
A true once in a lifetime barn find. Excellent episode.
*I wonder why the mice weren't living in the Ferrari? Maybe they couldn't afford to live in such a nice place 🤣*
Even mice don't want to live in something that's over priced and breaks down every chance it gets
The 1980s was the best period ever! Those mice knows cars lol
@TIGRES EQUIPO CHICO somebody got offended 😄
Omg rip
Probably because they put they car there the day before they "discovered' it
Congratulations on this magnificent discovery ! Hope that these fabulous automobiles are well cared for today.

Oh my goodness, barn find of the century. Thanks for taking us with you to see this at the same time.
While!!! You can tell the excitement in your voice.... UNBELIEVABLE!
I would have liked to see more of the other cars...
I found a 12k mile Alfa Romeo Milano Verde and also along with the cars was a '69 Spider originally blue the owner bought from the Harrison's.
The Alfa Romeo Milano (75 in Europe) is my favorite dream 4 door.

1967 Ferrari with 13 205 miles? Amazing find. 427 Cobra, sweet.
The TR6 and Morgan are also nice finds. Not in the same league as the other two but very fun and distinctive sports cars.
Really hope there is a part 2 to this video. There saw a few other beauties in that garage.
Incredible , it's a trip how many of these are around just waiting to be found.

hate to see it, but life goes on, tragedies occur, priorities arise, time flies, procrastination takes it toll.......
Excellent video! What an amazing and rare find! Thank you for sharing.
Amazed at the lack of security on that garage all those years and these gems just sitting there in plain view through the broken windows and rear door.
I knew the e30 would be passed over, but a little shoutout would have been cool. They may have been mass produced, but they are becoming a hot collector car now. Glad I picked up my 325is before prices got ridiculous.
Agreed. Don't overlook the E30!
E30 is nowhere close to an original Cobra or 275 GTB (racecars). Several millions of value and quality. BMW M3 E30.... mmmm $8,000
@@CaptainFALKEN 8k? Try 100k for an M3 in decent condition. It's not an M3 tho. It's a relatively rare AWD 325i E30. No one really cares about those in the BMW community.
12:58 The weave on that straw hat is exceptional in every way. I need it for drinking beer on the beach. How much?
Sure loved this one find show! Haven't watched Hagerty in a while now, and this is the reward I get! The Triumph and the Morgan are the icing on the cake.
Just wow, what a garage find
And there they sit just waiting for their next owner to find and love again!
Congratulations..!! I hope to see them in better shape, soon!
That Craftsman will be a collector's item too. :-D
An amazing story of a gentleman with fantastic knowledge of automobiles and their history!
Holy smokes ! Is that a Triumph TR6 in the background?!
My friend has one
A true aluminum body Cobra. 💰💰💰💰💰💰
The Cobra ismy dream car of course! Tom has most of his Cobra facts correct. I cant believe that nobody noticed a VERY IMPORTANT emblem on the Ferrari!? That car is more valuable than they think! on the rear tail panel is an emblem in blue designating N.A.R.T. North American Racing Team there are very few N.A.R.T. cars in existance. a few years ago a 275GTB SPYDER N.A.R.T. car, 1of 10 made sold for $27,000,000! this long nose alloy w/a Colombo 2 cam V-12 N.A.R.T. coupe is even more rare! research shows that Scaglietti only imported 6 275GTB/2 COUPE'S to U.S.A. under the N.A.R.T. program.
Greg Claflin Good catch!
I noticed the NART emblem right away too!
Holy Cow! 1 of 6!
Wow, what amazing finds, would've loved to have seen the MGTC and TR6 close ups as well. Keep these coming Tom
I think you are referring to the green Morgan, not an MGTC
The mice know what they like !
lazy RRR they love that rare muscle
Wow... Just Wow... I Love the 275. The Triumph and Morgan are nice finds on their own. But that Cobra! If I could only have one weekend car and money was no object it would be a 427 Cobra like this one. Unreal.
Nobody mentioned the e30 just sitting there
It's worth a couple grand and then there's 2 million dollar cars sitting next to them… I wonder why…
A e30 m3 is worth 50 to 100k now . The one in the video isn't a m3 . My first car was a e36 the best generations of the 3 series was the e30, e36,e46, far as cosmetic looks also the e92
Riki Diki89 Yea they're beautiful cars they get annoying from time to time but you get that with any car .
Some ricer will buy the bmw
Don't get me wrong, I love regular E30's they are one of my favorite cars of all time, but they are a mass produced mid tier sedan. They are getting a little harder to find these days cause many of them have been hacked up into track cars or beaten to death, but they aren't exactly rare. Worth about 3 grand.
All I have to say is WOW W what an AMAZING find those cars are absolutely Epiccc. Absolutely love the cobra and Ferrari twin cam, but keep the episodes coming I absolutely love the episodes
Charlotte North Carolina. Looks like Myers Park neighborhood.
Yep, he drives by 1021 East Blvd (notice the orange building) and then 2101 Sherwood Ave. Not sure of the exact address of this garage though. Would love to drive by it it it's still standing. There's been a lot of tear downs for new builds in that neighborhood.
That was Gold!!!
so cool to see that Cobra!!!
The mice couldn’t afford the rent in the Ferrari so they moved in the Cobra.
The cobra is amazing, but the Ferrari is just ridiculous. Unbelievable find. Wealthy enthusiasts who fall on hard times…
Why are people so surprised he didn't feature the E30? E30's, while one of my favorite cars, are mass produced and not exactly rare. Worth less than 10k. It's also a 325ix, and those are like the unwanted red headed stepchild in the BMW enthusiast community.
I must admit that I have never done any work on an ix, but from what I hear the stock diffs are incredibly weak.
Because they are being sarcastic.
