So a Mercedes Panamara? Fill a 55-gal drum with melted gold, take your yacht off the coast of Texas, roll that sucker overboard. This is Mercedes depreciation.

The actual production model will look slightly different.

You can always tell when they never plan on taking a path: It looks like an artist squeezed it out of a tube of Honda and a tube of Acura and then blended the middle with those smooth glossy lines that will never make it to a production vehicle without being broken by silly things like safety features (mirrors

The first thing I thought of was that they’re going Aston’s route, with a giant grille up front, and not much else. Thinking more on it, that seems to be the upcoming ‘thing’ for vehicle style. All grille, and almost no body up front. lol.. We’ll see how it looks in production-form. The body lines look good though.

Awesome! My first car was a just like that except for the rally stuff. That said, I think the second b&w pic is a picture of me trying to make it to school on time!

Been a lurker for many years now but finally decided to make an account for this post. My “barn” find is a 68 AMX my dad had sitting around for over 10 years.

Actual barn find. 1930 Ford Tudor sedan. This is what it looked like when we bought it.

Here is my war story.

Not a barn find per se; this one was found sitting abandoned on the parking ramp at the airport I used to work at in 2003. A 1978 T-tail Piper Lance (like pictured above) that had been sitting untouched for over three years uncovered with flat tires. I contacted the owner and we struck a deal where I’d handle

Okay, more a garage find than a barn find, but I pulled the 1965 K10 pickup I sold last year out of the garage of a raised ranch, where it sat since the early 90s.

Now that’s a tradition worth keeping.

Subaru 360, left behind at an abandoned mechanics shop in 1974. Perfectly preserved in the West Texas climate with only a few thousand miles on it.

This was found in rural New Hampshire. It currently is in Germany awaiting restoration at the Gundermann Museum. Run by Al Schmit in SCCA ProRally and WRC in the 70s and 80s, featured in Popular Mechanics article on the ALCAN 5000, and used in promotional material in-period.

Ok, so technically this was a driveway find, which I bought, took home and put into my very messy garage. But if you want to pretend this thing has been sitting among these bicycles, paint cans and old gardening tools for 40 years, be my guest.

1966 and 1969 912 original engines hundreds of spares, extra 3.0sc motor,

It’s been sitting for a few years, but my father just passed and left me this. It’ll live again this spring and be handed down to my eventual kids. And yes it’s on stands in the picture, that isn’t ride height.

shooting rockets of course. Rockets that drop 89 degree angle with pin point accuracy. The howitzers started using the Excalibur (GPS guided 155mm) too but we did way more damage.

I bought these two Datsun 510's from a guy who was keeping them in his barn a few years ago, and sadly have not done much with them. Now one is in my garage and the other is back in a barn, only it’s my mother-in-law’s barn. I should really get to restoring these before they turn into someone else’s barn find.
