Default Barn Finds

Just pulled 11 cars out of a barn here in PA. Older gentleman purchased them when they were new or nearly new over the years and never sold anything! He kept them dry & engines free. Neat cars, but I'd hate to pay the re-chroming bills! Here are a few that started right up & drove outside.

My dad had a Cadillac like your last pic with the same color. Pretty sure his was a `53.

More pics of the cars before moving them out - not barn finds in the classic sense of being filthy cars. They were well cared for &amp; tucked away for many years.

I always think of these as &quot;new cars&quot;, but they are 30 years old!

I really like those two Eldos in yellow and burgundy. They were very desirable cars in the mid-80's and those are the two best colors in my opinion.
