Hidden Road Car Classics - Now for Sale

A Barn Find Thread!

Prompted by a suggested story that just popped up on my socials and rather share it in another thread, I figured I start a new one (after a quick glance, I'm not sure there is one like on the forum yet - merge we must - I don't care).

Please share recently discovered classics, stored away for years, now going on sale! Or great stories of classic road cars hidden for years that are now being driven.
As for the story, check it out!

From a ’55 MGA to a ’74 Porsche 911: A Treasure Trove of 174 Dust-Covered Classic Cars Is Heading to Auction

There is a video in the article showing the lot in the warehouse (not a barn). Hate that he skips right over a rare, pre WWII MG (from my quick glance) to comment on a fairly common BMW. There is a BGT V8 he mentions! I'm partial to MGs

I'll save you the time, here is the complete listing from the article (excel):

Anyways, you Londoners put a bid for me on the BV8 and maybe the defender!

And please share recent or older stories of such things. These stories always fascinate me and the cars are always intriguing.
