British Grand Theft Auto Getaway Car Barn Find - Sat for over Half a Century.
In this barn find episode Jonny Smith accidentally discovers a 1960s British super saloon favoured by getaway drivers for its power, handling and ability to carry plenty of guys and 'swag'. Why accidently? Because he bought his daughter her first car on eBay and, upon collecting it from the vendor, got chatting about a car he'd had in the garage for decades. We call this a DOUBLE barnfind, because the car has sat in two sheds for a total of half a century! Will it run after 50 years?
