Larry Shinoda's Boss 302, a barnfind

Tuesday, December 27, 2011

Found while looking through a forum that evolved into photos, brochures and info about the most rare and cool musclecars from 1962 - 1972... great stuff! http://www.highdefforum.com/car-forum/115098-muscle-cars-1962-1972-a-252.html

Johnny Vegas made the most incredibly realistic looking faux patina on a 33 ford, with Cumberland paints, and they call it the Barn Find

the door jambs were still original paint, and it was in absolutely amazing condition, and a true barn find.

Johnny is pretty damn good at getting and selling barn finds, check out this 1941 Buick Estate Woodie, one of 16 known to exist... he found it and has sold it already, but it had been stored since 1958
here is a full gallery of it http://hispeedcustoms.com/IMAGES/CARS/1941%20Buick%20Woodie/index.htm

but go look through the other cars he has for sale http://hispeedcustoms.com/forsale.html and you'll find the stablemate 1933 Ford Woodie for 45 thousand doallars that Johnny also has among his many cars for sale in Tucson

Ferrari 250GTO out to pasture for 2decades after doing time in a high school auto shop class, donated by a former race car team owner

Saturday, October 22, 2011

3589 was registered to a high school. It was donated to them by Rosebud Racing in Texas when they quit racing in 1964. IT was just an old, worn out racecar. The School kept it until 1970 in the auto shop with students just messing around with it. They then advertised it in Hemmings as a 250GT. A guy in Ohio I believe bought it with the thought of making a quick buck. That didnt pan out, so he put it out to pasture. Literally. The car sat on a trailer in a field for almost 20 years. It is now fully restored and owned by Bert Steiger in Switzerland last I heard. This car was originally raced by Mike Parkes and Innes Ireland among others.
