About Barn Find Footage

Barn find footage documents one of the most thrilling experiences in the car world — the discovery of a forgotten vehicle hidden away in a garage, barn, or warehouse, sometimes for decades. These clips capture the dust, the patina, the moment of recognition when someone realises what they've found, and the agonising question of whether to restore or preserve. Some of the most valuable cars in existence were barn finds, and these videos tell their stories from the moment of discovery.

The 1980s in Music

The 1980s was the decade of excess, turbocharging, and the most terrifying rally cars ever built. Group B rallying produced monsters like the Audi Quattro S1, Peugeot 205 T16, and Lancia Delta S4 — cars so fast they were eventually banned after a series of fatal accidents. On the road, the supercar as we know it was born: the Ferrari F40, Porsche 959, and Lamborghini Countach became poster-car icons for an entire generation. Japanese manufacturers were engineering precision machines like the Toyota AE86 and Nissan Skyline that would become the foundation of an entire tuning culture. Video footage from the 80s is plentiful and often spectacular, capturing an era when automotive ambition had almost no limits.
