I have never pulled a sheet off anything in a barn, but if things like that are often lurking underneath, perhaps I should start!
What's the story behind it? Is it in the UK?

Its in scotland - a friend of mine just mms'ed me the picture, he took it yesterday apparently.
He has said its not an R/T though, its a 318 (?) with the badge on, 4 speed auto, and its a rare colour. I'm waiting on more info.

He said it is 'dark tan metallic' which allegedly only 303 of them were made in this colour.

Brb checking all the local barns. Never know what you might find, went with a friend to check on his mums horses once and he thought he'd take me along cause he knew I liked cars and there was some in this old barn where his horses were, so we went to this farm where his horses were for the winter, told me there was an old beetle and some others he didn't have a clue about. Got there and saw: Old beetle Ford Mustang Ford Galaxie Estate with a huge V8 Daimler Double Six Coupé (only around 400 ever built) plus a couple of other cars under sheets. So ask around, you never know what you might find out from people you know. |
