Rust To Riches: 10 Barn Finds That Made Serious Money

More and more these days thanks to speculators and televised auctions, collector cars have become exclusive and out of the reach of most of us. The best we can hope for is that one rare discovery, a mis-coded car sitting in a barn, a COPO Camaro masquerading as just a regular Camaro. Or digging through an old relative’s storage and finding out that they took their Cobra off the road before you were born. This video is about old cars people find in barns or garage that they restore and sell for profit. There are a few people who have hit absolute paydirt when it comes to forgotten classics hiding under boxes in forgotten garages. Some have turned minor investments in seemingly hopeless wrecks only to discover a historic racing Ferrari wearing a Devin body. Or a rare Bugatti Type 57S Atalante. Even some lost historic race cars that some had assumed where lost forever have emerged from some pretty strange places. A record holding Auto Union grand prix car hidden in Russia, a lightweight alloy Gullwing and E-type hides out in a garage, even one of nine Cobra Daytona Coupes emerged from hiding.
