An abandoned farm in the UK was hiding a rare American car barn find that the explorers of the barn didn’t expect to find.
YouTuber and explorer The Bearded Explorer had come across the barn and described it as the ‘holy grail’ of barn finds.
There was a wide array of cars inside, ranging from an iconic Jaguar E-Type to a Volkswagen LT Camper and a Suzuki Jimny SUV.
But it is the rare American classic car that steals the show. Remarkably, this car has survived for all these years, hiding away in a corner of Britain.

The video opens with a few panning shots of the cars, which include the E-Type, and a rare Cadillac Fleetwood.
This is the American classic that has got the YouTuber so excited in the video.
Next to it is the E-Type, which is often called the prettiest car ever made.
Ferrari founder Enzo Ferrari himself is alleged to have called the E-Type that.
In the video, the E-Type is in a rough state, although it fared better than some of the other cars.
One advantage the E-Type has had is that it seems to have spent most of its time stored inside.
That has kept it away from the worst of the weather, but it’s still not in the best condition.
Next to it, though, is the highlight of the video, which is the gorgeous Cadillac Fleetwood.
The American car is hiding under a cover behind the Jaguar E-Type, and it’s been hiding in the barn for years.
The Fleetwood name was used on bespoke models from 1976 onwards, but it was also a name used on other models.
Cadillac first started selling Fleetwood bodies from 1934 onwards, appearing on cars such as the Series 70.
These are very rare cars, even more so in the UK, making this one hell of a barn find.
It’s not clear why these cars are here or how they ended up in the barn.
What we do know is that they are clearly in a bad way and need some love and care.
Hopefully, someone, somewhere, can give these amazing cars the love they deserve.
