'Barn Find' 1969 Mustang GT Cobra Jet convertible is a dream come true!
Every hobbyist dreams of stumbling upon a rare "barn find," one of those neglected vehicles stowed in an old building for many years or even decades. The hobby's fascination with barn finds has taken these dusty vehicles to the top echelon of the hobby, and barn finds are arguably the hottest thing going in the collector car world now. Despite the phrase, a barn find need not be found in an actual barn. Garages, old buildings and other structures can hide barn finds. Even an old chicken coop can obscure a hobby gem, as was the case with this rare 1969 Mustang GT convertible with the R-code 428 Cobra Jet and four-speed.
The Chicago Auto Show officials announced they received approval from state and city officials to host a special edition of the show July 15-19 at McCormick Place
Old Cars has started a new podcast called "Rollin' With Old Cars." Old Cars sits down with the movers and shakers of the old car hobby and talk about all aspects of the hobby.
We've launched our own podcast: Rollin With Old Cars!
Join Old Cars editors Brian Earnest, Angelo Van Bogart and Mike Eppinger as we talk to the movers and shakers in the collector car hobby and keep on top of all the big events, trends, auctions and breaking news in the old car world.
The podcast is part informative, part light-hearted and a whole lotta fun! Tune in and enjoy the ride.
We couldn't even hazard a guess at first, but the classified listing in our Old Cars Marketplace says this fabulous piece of fabrication is a 1926 Dodge, so we'll go with that.
Whatever it is, it's one of the most unique "woodies" you'll ever see. The seller calls it "A one-of-a-kind! Originally a 1926 Dodge Roadster... The cowl, hood, and fenders were professionally restored and painted with top-quality PPG paint. The wood work was designed and built by master craftsman Clayton Brown. This is not a freeway cruiser. It's a show car/parade car. Great to give the grandkids a ride in!"
