Welcome to the forum.

WOW a car parked next to a forgotten barn

Please post up some pics of the car.

Are you going in for a restoration or is it reasonably OK?

Good to see you.

Welcome to the forum,

You better get moving before the owner remembers it.

Is it running or needing work?

Welcome to the forum! Like the others, I'm curious to hear more about your barn find. It's not common to hear about a barn find anymore it seems.

Yes she runs after a spark plug, plug wires,cap,rotor,air filter and new gas.
Just needs brakes and tires all around and head liner and a new paint job (some of the paint became one with the car cover), a headliner and a way to get the nasty smell out. Moth ***** after a few years smells bad along with some of the moisture.
The lady I bought it from her husband passed away and she put a cover over it and could not give it up. The lady breeds dogs and my kids wanted a puppy. We saw the rest of the farm. She told me about the car as we walked by it and she let me look at it and she said she was thinking about selling it come spring. I bought it on the spot for $650.00 USD. That is That
