Tom breaks every barn find rule and still finds hidden treasure | Barn Find Hunter - Ep. 71

Back to basics! Tom hits the road with zero leads and zero intentions of coming home empty-handed. Due to six straight days of bad weather, Tom is forced to leave his 1939 Ford woodie wagon at home and break his number one rule of barn find hunting, driving a classic when hunting for a classic. Driving a modern vehicle is not the best way to hunt for old cars, there were many strikes but lo and behold persistence pays off, the first of many finds was an all original 1966 Volkswagen Beetle with period-correct Barrecrafter surfboard racks. After some more digging Tom finally strikes gold when he meets, Buddy Lackomy. Buddy, is the local car guy that everyone knows and refers to when you have any pressing questions or want to buy any old cars.
