Could this be the UK barn find of the decade? Let us know. Have you ever seen so many valuable cars in what was, basically, a 2-car garage?!!
Watch these rare cars being removed in what can only be described as one of the most intricate car extractions you're likely to see for a while.
This is Part Two of of an AMAZING 2023 'barn find'. Part one is here - • UK Barn Find Of The De...
We are still blown away by the whole experience and hope you'll enjoy us sharing the experience with you. So many questions remain, such as; "How on earth did these cars get there?", "How did they remain in this place for so long?" and "Just how much will they make at auction?"!!
To summarise:
AC Ace
AC Ace Bristol
AC Aceca
Jaguar E-Type Series II x3
Land Rover Series 1 80"
Jaguar E-Type tubs x3
In a back garden!
Thanks to @AngliaCarAuctions for inviting us to film this. It really was a privilege and another eye-opener into how much work you put into a big classic car auction. The cars featured here will be for sale 19-20th August, 2023. Check out their catalogue here - bit.ly/ACAaugust2023 and look for The David Brown Collection.
Colin Denton of North London Garages GTA is an absolute gent and the most genuine petrolhead you are ever likely to meet. Check out his company, here - www.nlggta.co.uk/ - and be sure to watch his team on Classic Gar Garage - classiccargarage.tv/
Kudos to the guys from Chartered Transport. Watching you at work was so much fun! - www.charteredtransport.co.uk/

Yes, but that’s easy to explain: 40 year old guy buys up wrecks when they’re cheap and has plans to restore them, but never gets round to it. Realising that it’s never going to happen can be a very sad thing, so his kids don’t push him to get rid of the stuff, they just wait. And here we are, 40 years later or whatever, with a shed full of classics.

I believe they came up with it as model name initially for an SS car before they decided to rebrand entirely under the name.
