One of my favourite subjects; the old car or old race car discovered in someones barn/garage/paddock/basement, thought lost forever. How about sharing some of your own experiences of finding old race cars, or sharing stories of other peoples discoveries.
I'll kick off woth one of my favourites, although not my own discovery. This was the one and only Alan Mann built Open Sports Ford which appeared at the penultimate round of the 1969 Can-Am, then was raced just one more time, in the final race, then seems to have vanished forever.
I've long been fascinated by this car, but have always struggled to find information about it. I put together a brief article on the car here: http://www.theroaringseason.com/show...en-Sports-Ford
Was advertised for sale on Ebay a few years ago after decades in storage.
