A Great find again Colin , the most valuable car actually would be the Standard, Surely they would be better contacting Mathewsons or East Anglia Car Auctions for the cars!

I really enjoy watching your videos and the finds that you discover along with the many classic cars. However, I can't help feeling a little upset thinking about the people who once owned these items with their lives and memories now gone.

I love your adventure and what you found :) My older Brother bought a 1958 Morris Minor it was green just like the one in the barn :) It was a 4 cylinder 4 on the floor shift standard :) What a great time we had with that car back in the day :) I think we had to work on it more then we drove it :) He taught me how to drive with that car and it was fun :) What memmories came back when i seen that green car again :) My brother has passed away since then may he RIP....Thanks for your great video and what you found :) My brother would have been so proud of your adventure :) Thank u.....! We both loved that little green Morris Minor .....his first car

Colin ... please save the DAF. Absolutely amazing video. Thank you for sharing this.

Really hope those cars are saved and not scrapped.

Loved the green Morris minor that looked in really good condition probably worth a small fortune as is..

It's good that the scrap guys are keeping some of the brass for display the Daf needs saving

Had to come back to comment because I actually felt upset after watching this one. As someone who loves vintage stuff and antiques and classic cars and also my dad just passed away and he spent his childhood around horses living in a romany caravan so my whole family collect those brass horses and caravans this one hurt. Whoever called the scrap guys on this place needs to have a serious word with themselves. I couldn't see a single piece of scrap anywhere the whole place is a treasure trove that needed to be seen by vintage & antique dealers and classic car collectors not scrap men. It's disturbed me this one Colin.

@20.32, Eclipse limited edition, they also did an Orion version Equipe

I’d get auction involved definitely not scrap for sure! If it gets scrapped he’ll lose a fortune

Here in the U.S.A., the Mitsubishi was known as the Conquest. Just to pass along a bit of VW knowledge, that's technically not a Beetle. That's a Super Beetle, there is a difference. The way you can tell the difference is the nose. A Super Beetle's nose rounds back under and has vents at the bottom. A Beetle's nose continues down at the same angle until a very tiny rolled lip at the bottom. The fenders vary in this regard as well. There are other differences, but that's the most striking one from the outside. The Super has McPherson Strut suspension up front and all have IRS (Independent Rear Suspension) out back that used a torsion bar for a spring. While these produced a better ride quality, and slightly better handling, they were no where near as reliable and as rugged as what came in a true Beetle. Those had a twin torsion bar front beam and most had a "swing" axle in the back, but the later years had the same I.R.S. setup as the Super Beetle. The front of the Beetle was way tougher because the beam for the front was a self contained unit. If it had problems, you could just unbolt it and swap it for a new one. You could abuse those things over and over and they would come back for more. We would use them in buggies and launch them off jumps with no worries of them ever failing. The Super Beetle's Struts mounted to the inner lip of the front trunk (boot to you guys over there). If you hit the car in the front, it was really hard to get proper suspension geometry back again. I've seen those take half the abuse of a beetle and punch the struts through the sheet metal and out the hood, ruining the car for good at that point. The rear of the Beetle was just as tough. The original "swing" axle cars did not have C.V. joints that would fail. To break a swing, you had to snap the entire axle shaft, almost impossible to do with a car that light, until you reach turbo-ed engine numbers. Those were also geared way lower as they originally had way less power, so VW made up for that with gearing. The swing axle only pivoted at the transaxle it's self and not at the tire. This resulted in the wheel/tire following the arch of the axle and caused the tire to have large amounts of negative camber under acceleration, and large amounts of positive camber while in reverse. If a driver was not use to this, and what it could do, people could possibly roll a car, but not very likely, especially in a VW, or Porsche which used the same thing. So, after a media campaign, which has now been proven to have been based on lies and doctored vehicles, against VW but most of all the Chevrolet Corvair and a book "Unsafe at any speed" by a congressman who's name is not worth repeating, VW moved to the IRS and Chevy stopped the Corvair all together. The new IRS axle used a CV (Constant Velocity) joint at each end. This resulted in a tire that remained in almost exactly the same camber setting throughout it's range of motion. It made the car a little more sure footed, but the reduced weight transfer resulted in less weigh being transferred, which means less traction to be had, so the gain in forward motion was negligible. The gain was in stability during backing up. The reduced reliability of, at times, very fragile CV joints, when compared to the swing axle, makes the swing the more desired axle among off-road and drag race enthusiasts, where the IRS cars are more preferred by those wanting to road race a Beetle. The older cars are also more desired for kit cars, as they do not need a surface to mount the struts to. The swing axle cars are anything from 1967 and older. In 1968, the 4-speed cars were still swings, but the autostick cars were IRS. In 1969 and on they all became IRS.

It’s always so exciting to see these discoveries and know that with many of the cars featured they will eventually be brought back to original condition and in many cases, be worth a lot more than when they were sold brand new! It gives a lot of fun for collectors and enthusiasts who enjoy restoring these old beauties! (In another 50 years they will sell like famous old oil paintings) happy days!

I would really love to know who the guy in the red puffer is to the owner. All I heard was negativity and how he was a hoarder, but look how much money there is sat there if you look beyond scrapping (which in my opinion already shows the stupidity). All those brass objects are probably worth 10x more than what you got for scrap. Sad story as you could see the passion the owner had. Just a shame seeing potentially someone’s life’s work just not being acknowledged for what it should be. Rant over.

Buy the DAF 44, Colin. You should get that one for your own personal collection. There were a lot of very valuable items in that barn and some of those signs command a high value too.

Those 2 barns had so much value! Apart from the cars and brass there was loads of other valuable stuff £50-75k??? 😮

The stones behind the KA are straddle stones, they were used to keep wooden barns off the ground to stop vermin getting in, they look like toad stools when in place.

That coin was to celebrate Glasgow Celtic beating Inter Milan 2-1 in the European Cup final in Lisbon in 1967. The first British team to win the competition. It probably says on it 1888, as this was the year they were formed.🍀 These videos are really good, and bring back lots of memories with the stuff you discover. Keep up the good work bud.

Great video as always mate! It does make me sick that people would think to scrap stuff like that especially the cars hopefully it all finds some good homes and not come back as a washing machine.

Great vid Colin, its's nice to see scrap guys that realize that not everything is for melting down or shredding.

You just know that scrappies are going to fleece them at least 2-1 lol

Grate video collin can't belive all that brass is going for scrap . Thanks for sharing amazing you will get some views

This was amazing what a find I’m glad that some of the items are saved it will be interesting to see how much everything is worth especially the cars

The Morris Minor is 3-4 grand easy. The Daf's about 3k worth too. I hope they don't get scrapped, that would be criminal.

some very nice finds! keep it up and keep exploring!

Thanks for all the memories brother 💪🧠🎵🤝 Nathan 🙏

Brilliant video Colin. So much interesting stuff in that complex!

Loving it already....like usual 😇✌️

Another great vid just such a shame having the scrap men come in they should have found a antique shop or collector to take those ornaments and I'd give matthewsons auctions a ring for the cars

The Mini seats and presumably the rest of it are from a 1996 Equinox , they were a limited edition with only 750 made.

Another cracking video from a cracking KZfaqr

I may comment again but I have to mention the Quosh bottle in the passengers side of the Beetle. Haven't seen one of them in donkey's years! 😁

Awesome...!special cars..cool.. I really enjoy your exploring video's.. Great..!👍 Sir loads of love from India🇮🇳

Now that , Colin , was a very interesting and entertaining video . I really enjoyed it . many thanks .

In the last Helicopter video, the Red SAAB outside was a Saab 90, a rare thing, a Saab 99 front, and a 900 rear end from the factory !!! I had one in white. Only produced for one or two years. Why where the comments switched off??

What a fantastic barn find, some of those cars are just amazing As always, another brilliant video

Great video Colin 👍that Starion needs saving 🔧🚗💨

33:32 Celtic FC (1888) vs Inter Milan, looks like a commemorative coin marking Celtic winning the European Cup in 1967, first British club to do so. Great finds, great video.

Love this one , what will happen to the cars ,that daf 44is beautiful 😥😥😥😥hope it's not scrapped .x

That is the best wall of scrap I've ever seen, those guys need some credit, that's awesome!!

Fantastic video Colin. The Mini seats are from the Mini 35 which was launched in 1994 to commemorate the Mini being in production for 35 years. They are not from the 1996 Equinox model as previously suggested, which featured a sun and moon theme across the black seats.

Another awesome vid colin hope those cars gets saved especially the minor and the daf the escort looks like a eclipse edition there very rare awesome 👌

Good vlog, I remember my friends dad had a Robin reliant and he used to speed in it with me and his daughter, funny im still alive

What a cracking video Colin 👏🏻 Them Taroni lads are top guys too 🤝🏻 Keep up your excellent work brother 🤜🏻🤛🏻

Cool video what a barn find ...think I would have offered for the daf and the escort definitely .....👍can only wait next video Colin

They should have auctioned all the contents of the barns so that the collection would have been passed on to people who would appreciate it.

Loved watching this video with all the interesting pieces plus the cars.

There was a chopper bike in front of that KA and they fetch a fortune at the moment. Hopefully those scrap guys paid a fair price for everything.

Stunned to see the Starion! I’ve got two widebody Starions so it’s sad to see one wasting away with how little remain!

Great video love the cars nice job huge thumbs up from Australia 👍🇦🇺

Shame those cars may go for scrap, it would be good if a classic car auction sold them on especially that rare daf 44

I wish someone could save some of these cars. Such a shame. You do love your car explores but so do we! Ace Video 👌

Some people have no idea how much these vehicles are. Don't scrap anything! Brass is through the roof on price!

Wow! Now this is a real treasure place. I'll take the two Jaguars. Glad to see stuff getting salvaged not scrapped. Neat. I think those guys are going to need a couple of extra hands. Awesome.

Great cars wow

" wow " great video Colin

Another epic find Colin that little yellow car is awesome 👍😎

What an interesting collection of cars. Some of them are real rarities. Several of them look like they could be saved. I would definitely have the Standard and give it the TLC it deserves.

That was fun!

Hi from durham colin👋👍 and great set up this one and the cars need saving defo not scrap the rover and jag sport in barn need pricing ad love to save them and daf escort nd morris need to go to heritage I think lol and this stuff should be appraised first such a shame to waste it or weigh in 💔🔥😢😢😢 but the wall is getting filled not the skips so good lads saving some💓👍 thanks for your time be safe and see you soon👍👋 how can get a hold of you please?

You should give FuriousDriving the heads up on that Rover convertible! There’s too many good cars in there to just scrap that would be criminal

It upsets seeing all the brass go to waste love to save some of those cars love watching your videos mate I have a field day there love it

Treasure trove of lovely stuff I want the daf 44 and the cortina estate cheers 🍻 well done guys excellent find 👌

cor' blimey mate, that bob marley bonnet is mental innit 💯👍👍

Good colab with these guys, glad they saved it from being melted. Thought you would of been all over the vintage signs and spitfire

The Escort looks like an Eclipse model. I had one many years ago and the shade of blue makes it look like the same one.

I had an escort the same as that as a first car its an eclipse 1.3 and the colour is Bahama blue

Wow some really collectable stuff there worth more than scrap

Just WOW 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😎

That was really interesting loved it. You do find some lovely stuff. Brass was a popular ornament back In the day but I was thinking whilst watching how it isn’t any more but still it’s stunning as were the cars 🌹

Wow! Simply WOW!!!!!!👍

My Grandad's VW Beetle reg was SAB504F

Now for me it was the ford escort I'd love to own that!!

18:09 I have exactly same set of Mags for Mercedes Benz but would love a spare set like that as they're getting scarce.

Love the scrap kings

I could honestly not do your kind of videos. I would try to save as many as I could. Some nice motors this time around aswell ;). Keep it up man ;)

I LOVE ALL THIS STUFF YOUR VIDEO IS 1ST CLASS I COULD WATCH THIS FROM MORNING TO NIGHT ITS SO INTERESTING 👌

Good wan , keep them coming

Them Mini seats are from a Rover Mini 35

those rear seats look like the pattern in a Micra!!

I Wouldn't Trust a Scrapie with All that Stuff, Especially the Silver Coins!! There Worth a Fortune!! Crazy!!

Hello from Texas. Great video

U make the best video s I'd love to find some cars like that they need saveing all them cars

You should get drew Pritchard there to buy everything save it all going to waste that blue Jag looks pretty special with the red pinstripe and the badge looks like it could be the supercharged one

Very very interesting, someone has already mentioned the Mk2 Raleigh Chopper which was my stand out moment. Just curious (scrap guys) they paid for and collected brass. What was your take on the Guinness sign, Coca Cola sign and spitfire model going as well? Not very brass like but obviously I don’t know what deal was made.

I had that same ford escort as my first car 😁 I feel I need that on my drive lol it brought back alot of memories ❤️

Mate!Mate! you walk straight passed the Raleigh Chopper push bike... proper sought after nowadays..

wow what a place another good video by you guys

The sword is the Robert locksly from Robin Hood Prince of thieves (replica)

This is the most interesting of your films, though I wouldn't say the most enjoyable. It's very frustrating not to know more about the background to this hoard, who the owners are, and why they don't get featured. Also very sad that only scrap merchants got involved and not an auction house who would have been more likely, imho, to ensure that all those cars and antiques would've got into more caring hands. Just lots of exclamations of 'Wow' and 'Amazin'. With a few 'incredibles', you could've done a passable Kate Bush impression! But keep up the good work.

Great video and yes it's can be hard seeing stuff go to scrap man but like they said they will save the good stuff but like all things if it all need to go then as a job lot is better than waiting for different people all the time so on , the gold vw beetle should be save as even if scrapped there bits on it worth money as the gearbox is commonly used as a replacement for the vw splitscreens so sought after , great video dude and big thumbs up from me

That Raleigh Chopper is probably worth more and more collectable than the KA it was leaning against

I would be really interested in the Morris minor mini parts mini 35 seats the daf44 and the yamaha bike great show Colin some of these cars need saving

There was a Raleigh chopper in there behind the moped with the piston hanging out which I think was a Garelli Eureka. I hope the barn cars get restored and not scrapped.

16:15 You have pulled Excalibur from the wall in an abandoned garage. You are now King of England~ Achievement UNLOCKED~ ;3

I hope the owner realises he's got a lot of money's worth of collectables there.

Great video colin 👍

I'm pretty sure that bonnet with Bob Marley on it is from a ford granada

I WOULD LOVE THAT DAF 44

Nice one mate, sad to see them just left abandoned, great music at the start

Mad what’s in that shed. The mini seats are from a late rover mini most likely a mini 35.
