Barn finds like that just float my boat.
I wonder if people buy cars now and then just lock them up for many years.

I was very tempted to put my 1.8 306 merdian into storage, it would never have less miles than years, but it was only on 65k and was pretty sound, at which point I think its got as good a chance of being a 'modern classic' and or becoming the next mr2 escort as anything else.

Sadly instead I hit standing water too fast and stuffed it into a teligraph pole, but heyho. I'll be kicking myself in 50 years im sure!

Estimate makes it cheaper than a lot of new cars. Be great to buy it and use it as an everyday car, even if that would mean value dropping like a stone.

A 1.8 306 merdian will NEVER be a classic !!

and thankfully the telegraph pole, saves all of us from finding a shed, in a barn
