Channel Title: UK Barn Finds Channel Description: UK Barn Finds was founded in 2013. We film barn finds, buy barn finds, have a collection of our own barn finds & can help you sell barn finds and classic cars and bikes in general. Please get in touch if we can be of any help. The two people behind UK Barn Finds are Elton & Claire, a couple of 70's kids who just can't let go of the past. We live on an old pig farm (glamorous, huh?) and are automotive hoarders! Join us for car, bike and general motor-related content. We're every day, normal(ish) people, trying our best to balance family life and to share some automotive fun with like-minded people. We're not a big company, don't have backers, have never had any media/editing training and are learning as we go. So far, YouTube has been a fantastically rewarding challenge and a lot of hard work!

How gutted would you be? After long term storage, this Ford Sierra RS Cosworth suffered an engine fire when being started. It's fixable, though, so please check out @AngliaCarAuctions if you fancy bidding on it! </video> <video> Will It Start? Garage Find Rover P6 V8 Description: To be honest, we'd buy a garage find Rover P6 3500 V8 every day of the week, if we could! They look great, sound awesome and are an incredibly comfortable drive. Of course, when a car has been tucked away for a few years, it's rarely a case of just turning the key and driving off into the sunset and this Rover was no different. But, with a bit of simple fettling, we were fairly confident that we could supply a 'first start' video for you... It's nice to be able to share some of the cars that pass through our hands with our YouTube viewers and we hope you'll like this car as much as we do. As with all our videos, we'd love to read your comments on the car featured. Did you own a Rover P6? Or maybe a family member did? Or, like Elton, do you remember any from TV programmes? 00:00 Intro 00:49 The Exterior 07:14 Exploring The Boot 11:40 Under The Bonnet 14:00 The Interior 26:53 Will It Start? 38:30 Surely It Won't Drive?

We believe it is a rare 1300 Sport model and we explain more about that in the video. This poor old Ford has been languishing in a field for about 40 years. There are no front wheels, which makes it a little 'interesting' to recover, and access is tricky, due to other immobile cars and wet ground. Oh, and it's just Elton, his trusty Ford Transit and a tripod, so keep your fingers crossed. As you have come to expect from us, there is NO plan and anything could happen! I hope you enjoy watching this as much as we enjoyed filming it. All the best, Claire & Elton - UK Barn Finds 00:00 Intro 00:45 MK1 Escort Field Recovery 09:41 About The Ford Escort Mk1 1300 Sport 12:00 Unloading the Ford Escort MK1 back at base We are UK Barn Finds.

Garage Find Rover P6 3500 V8 Description: Our next video sees us having fun with a V8 and there can't be many petrolheads out there who wouldn't enjoy that! This 1973 Rover P6 3500 had been tucked away for just under ten years, but it would have been rude not to at least try to get it running for YouTube... #automobile #barnfind #garagefind #youtubehighfive #britishleyland #roverv8 #ukbarnfinds #restoration </video> <video> Field Find Minis | Would You Save Them? Barn Find Cars For Sale Description: Join us for another fun filled video in which we attempt to recover two Classic Austin Minis that have been sat in a garden for many years. Followers of UK Barn Finds will know that we are keen (rightly or wrongly) to save as many old classic cars as we can from the scrap yard. We'd rather see barn find cars for sale than scrapped. These two minis have really seen better days but, true to form, we attempt to recover them, have a bit of a tinker to see if one will start and, with the help of our forklift and recovery truck, get them sent off to @AngliaCarAuctions 00:00 Intro 00:24 The Recovery 03:16 1985 Mini Ritz 14:45 1961 Austin Mini 27:23 Fun With A Forklift 33:00 Unloading the 1961 Austin Mini at Anglia Car Auctions The Classic Austin Minis featured in the video are a 1985 Austin Mini Ritz which has been off the road about 15 years and a 1961 Austin Mini which has been off the road for well over 20 years! They are both project cars and not much of the 1961 Mini is original, but somebody may be able to restore them...could it be you? Both Classic Austin Minis will be offered for sale at the November 2nd & 3rd 2024 Classic Car Auction at Anglia Car Auctions in Kings Lynn, Norfolk. Hope you enjoy the video as much as we did making it. All the best Claire & Elton We are UK Barn Finds.
