With the help of his friend Zach, Tom discovers a cache of rare and forgotten cars hidden away in Virginia. The second Ferrari ever found on Barn Find Hunter, an AMC Javelin and an assortment of Dodge trucks round out a collection of rougher cars that may ride again with a little (or a lot) of 'sweat equity'.

This was one of my most fun car days. Getting to hang out with my great friend Tom Cotter as we toured around the beautiful Shenandoah Valley of Virginia in our woody wagons. Thanks to my friends Chuck and Bill along with Nick and Greg in episode 118 for permitting Tom to share their car stories. Thanks to Hagerty Media and The Barn Find Hunter team for the quality productions and keeping the stories of old vehicles alive.

Random observations from the Ridge: 1. Tom was roaming around just the other side of Roanoke from us down here in NE TN. I know that area well, truly God's country up there. 2. Chick Fil A lunch is primo! 3. Owner of Duster - please don't "crate hemi" that poor thing. It has so much more interest going on with the 340 (and perhaps a 4-speed), not to mention much more period-correct. Everybody and their brother does that "crate hemi" thing. Speaking as someone who's a lifelong Mopar guy (and admittedly owns two late-model hemi's, in addition to my '68 GTX)... 4. That blue Power Ram has some very rare factory aluminum rims on it!
