Projects Longroof Barn Find parked 50 years

Barn finds can be cliqued but this one is legit and actually did come out of a barn. It was backed in in '72. This is it today.

^^^^ Just what in the Heck is that???

 

Awesome find F1....

 

Oh, it's not mine. My Step Father inlaw just got it.

 

Very cool ! congrats on the find

 

Well at least you got a cool step father in-law that’s into old stuff .

 

But it`s stock. On a site for traditional Hot Rods and Customs.

 

Everything on here was at one time……..

So, when does the transformation start? My car has been modified since it was 5 years old.

 

Patience, Grasshopper! They just found the dang thing…..

(besides, these are just the ‘before’ pics)

Sorry, it`s 1:20 A M and I can`t sleep.

 

Nice! You have the extra rare 9 passenger. Love these!

 

A weird way to mount a fuel filter/sediment bowl, that's what it is.

 

Great find! I like it! My first driver was a '56 Pontiac wagon, although it was a 6 passenger. It was my Mom's old car that my Dad drove after he bought her a new one. He SOLD it to me ("teaching me responsibility") instead of allowing me to pick out what I wanted!?? I actually really liked it. Drove the snot out of it, and it just kept going. Wish I had it now.

 

I'm more impressed how tight the +Pos terminal clearance is to the battery hold down. Looks like fireworks waiting to happen

 

They're still out there!

 

yep, they are still out there - this is a true inspiration to keep looking - Thanks for sharing

 

I can't get over how well it looks after all those years.

 

Great find... The chrome... Damn!

 

Nice find , I always liked those cars.

 

Musta been a good barn.

 

They backed it in so nobody would steal the tail lights, Nice Score!

 

Yep, a 9 passenger with the tail lights intact, quite the find.

 

I like it

 

This was the same (except color )as our family car from 56 - 60 (dad never bought a new car) brings back tons of memories , thanks ! When it needed a new muffler my older brother was working in a service station , he put a glass pack on it ! My mom loved it , my dad , not so much !

 

Obviously the guy had never seen a sediment bowl before or
didn't understand how it worked.

 

Right after I sold my Shop in Tucson, AZ I had a 56 Pontiac Safari STA. wag.
which I Sold it to a Shop in Tucson. that was Just Starting To Restor
Cars.

Just my 3.5 cents
