(1 of 206) 1969 Z28, JL8 optioned, stripe delete... was sold in 1977, and finally bought back in 2010... wow! Home after 33 years, with only 22,133 orig miles


 Original everything, paint, interior, hell... it's probably got 1969 air in the tires!
the second owner put it in the garage in 1982... and left it there... BARNFIND!

this is a X-33 car and was ordered with custom (deluxe) interior, fold down back seat, radio delete, headlight washers (only 116 non-RS cars were ordered with this option), and rear window defroster.

Tom sold this car in 1977, located and purchased it back in Feb. 2010.  Not only is it a 22,133 mile 1969 Z28, but it is a rare JL8 Factory Option  (Four Wheel Power Disc Brake 1 of 206) and a Stripe Delete car.  He still has the Warranty Card & Protect-O-Plate that he kept when he sold the car in 1977, not for any reason except they were not important back then and rarely did anyone ask for it when they were purchasing a car from a private party

GT 350 Shelby Mustang barnfind, just 44 thousand original miles, and pulled out 2 years ago, now coming to auction




I just stumbled across the top two images in Hemmings Muscle Machines, and came home to find a comment on this blog from Kurtis letting me know about it.

All images are originally from Barrett Jackson Auctions though, here's the post they have about it http://www.barrett-jackson.com/application/onlinesubmission/lotdetails.aspx?ln=1263.1&aid=443&pop=0

If anyone learns about any other cool barnfinds, let me know and I'll post about it here and share the info!   at jbohjkl@yahoo.com

 Best custom interior/dash/steering wheel

What the new Mini coupe looks like





Quite a variety of Rolls Royce
And Lotus changed a lot too
Best display









 above, best cultural interior that fits the car show
 Quite a variety of Bentleys too


British cars that were at the show, Alpine, Austin, Delorean, Jaguar, Rolls Royce, Land Rover, Berkley, MG, Morris, TVR, Cooper, Triumph, Rootes, Morgan and maybe a couple I can't think of... but the number of Britsh built cars is surprising... and if you wonder why the new Mini is at the British car show... when it is a BMW... and you'd think German, well, it's built in Oxford Britian. Has 20 some percent of it's parts from France too.
