Genuine 30yr Barn Find - The Last One Left of its Type? Will it Start?

Genuine 30yr Barn Find - The Last One Left of its Type? Will it Start? In this episode the barn in question is in north Wales, and it isn't Jonny on camera. This one is presented by Jonny's pal Sion Ellis from @automaxwales . Thanks for stopping by The Late Brake Show. You will have seen Sion before on TLBS, from the Lands End Trial to the Renault 5 GT Turbo barn find, to the more recent Ford Fiesta Super Sport barn find. He's a mechanic by trade and a rally technician, but also a hopeless car hoarder. He's bought the car in this video, so be sure to follow his channel and let us know if you enjoyed the episode. DO YOU KNOW OF A CAR THAT MIGHT BE WORTHY OF JONNY HELPING UNEARTH ON VIDEO? DO YOU OWN A CAR IN A BARN/HEDGE/GARAGE THAT MIGHT JUST RUN OR NEED A NEW HOME?
