Well I was contacted by a guy helping a widow selling her decided husband car collection. There was a Opel from 1951, a Austin A40, Lincon Continental, 1 Ford prefect, 1 Ford anglia and 2 Ford Populars.
I just closed the deal on all the Fords, and wanted to share the pictures of when we where out looking at them yeasterday.

If you think there is much crap left there, they have already moved 5 containers out of the Barn. And around on the property there where 3 containers, 1 barn and a little house, full off old parts also, they where just unaccessable when we where there.

Wow what a great find - thank god for people who hoard things eh!!

The photos remind me of some I took a little while ago, after I heard of a barn with several old & very dusty Fords in it. There was an E493A Prefect (very sound), E494A Anglia (very sound), a 103E Pop (restorable), an E83W (restorable - just), a poor Model Y, and a rough CX.

Let us know how you get on with them!! Smile

Rick

Hi

Looks good fun, but am struggling to see any of the crap you speak of, all looks very interesting!

Be nice to have rifled through the containers of associated items!

Cheers

Dave

Nice find. What sort of value would they have in their conditions? looks like they need a lot of work.
