Anybody notice the increased barn finds going around?

[Lee Stewart]

I understand how this subject can be an emotional rollercoaster for many here. But at the same time I question how deep those emotions should run.

Take that 1968 Z/28 for example. Yes it's too bad the owner wouldn't sell it but at the same time Chevrolet built 7500 of them.

I would think that the answer to the thread's question: "Anybody notice the increased barn finds going around?" can be partially attributed to MCACN which raised the awareness of barn finds by continuing to exhibit them at the yearly show. The exhibit gets more and more exposure each year.

Barn finds make great press in auto magazines and related websites. Especially when the car in question is rare, unique and very valuable. It almost invokes the idea of a treasure hunt.

Just my 2 cents.

Oh . . . . BTW . . . . here's the latest one:
