Re: Barn Finds & Hidden Gems 2017!
Ryan,
You did a great job!! Amazing what is still out there. I love this section and would love to come back to it when I find another car eligible for such a cool display!! Thanks again for putting this together [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] Cheers [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] Dave PS: If I snag the car I'm after this year, I'll be bringing it for your section along with that former barn find of mine from 2014!

Re: Barn Finds & Hidden Gems 2017!
The crowd that this display draws speaks for itself. I also find it reassuring that there are still cars out there to find.

Good stuff! Looks like the Munster Vac bypassed the black '57 ...?

Re: Barn Finds & Hidden Gems 2017!
And we're off and running! First entry received this week and it's a good one.
Very real 1971 'cuda Funny Car. More on this one later... And YES, applications are now being accepted for MCACN IX through our website, and links will be up next week for all five Official Host Hotels. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] Bashton |

I will see if I can pull some strings on this car ....1957 unrestored Belair Injected convertible 1 of around 68 Best color combo 30K miles. Even the 60 year old soft top is original !!
|
Re: Barn Finds & Hidden Gems 2017!
Wow. Never seen that color on one before. Maybe you can also get your ass off the couch and come also.
|
Re: Barn Finds & Hidden Gems 2017!
Super cool! Cadillac color? The surrounding props might make for an authentic "as found" display, too ...
|
Re: Barn Finds & Hidden Gems 2017!
Looks like Dusk Pearl, which was a rpo color in 1957.
Not uncommon, just uncommon on a convertible fuelie. |
Re: Barn Finds & Hidden Gems 2017!
As the saying goes in trifive circles. "of the 60 or so produced fuelie convertibles, only 3000 have been found to date ,all red or black" [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

Re: Barn Finds & Hidden Gems 2017!
Like I said Chuck that has to be the only Unrestored Dusk Pearl 57 Fuelie Belair conv left in existence.

Re: Barn Finds & Hidden Gems 2017!
----I'm going to Mecum next Tuesday, Chuck. Like to meet up with you, but don't know quite how. Big place.....Bill S

Re: Barn Finds & Hidden Gems 2017!
I'll see if I can convince my buddy who attended for the first time to pull something out of his sleeve.

Re: Barn Finds & Hidden Gems 2017!
Wow, that's cool it was on MSN. All I saw is that it was on Hot Rod's Website. That's awesome the AMX was lead shot!
|
Have you guys seen the newest issue of Muscle Car Review yet?
|
So freakin' cool, Ryan!!! I hope I can find another car to participate in this section again.:3gears: Stupendous job on arranging this section, and I cannot wait to see it this year!!!!:biggthumpup::biggthumpup::biggthumpup:
Cheers:beers: Dave |
Gotta get out there and looking!
|
Been communicating with a fine gentlemen from Canada who recently acquired what many will consider the "Holy Grail" of Mopars, and is working in joining us this year for the Barn Finds & Hidden Gems area. This one has been packed away for more than 40 years.
We have also confirmed an exceptionally rare and cool W31 Olds with drag history. Already looking like another hot area for MCACN 2017! Bashton |
Wow, the lineup that is coming this year is blowing my mind, and going to be blowing out my back moving them all! But it will be well worth it.
|
Well I would like to say that it was a complete success, but I might be a bit bias.
What did you guys think? What could be better? All the pictures are posted here. https://www.flickr.com/photos/hemipw...7689500769964/ Many "day of" videos on my facebook page (please like). https://www.facebook.com/TheAutoArchaeologist/ AND I am doing daily individual videos of each car from the Barn Finds section on my YouTube page. https://www.youtube.com/AutoArchaeology Your feedback is appreciated. https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4549/2...3a82e88a_c.jpg https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4520/3...57e79d23_c.jpg https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4577/2...b758713e_c.jpg |
Loved it. I went through it more than once.
|
I thought it was real nice & put together very well.
|
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :biggthumpup::biggthumpup::biggthumpup::beers:
|
Just over half way through the videos, just started heading down the row of Mopars.
