Barnfind Car Stories Wanted

This fabulous Aston Martin sat for decades in a ramshackle garage in Malibu California, and I was there when it was pulled out and taken away to auction

I’ve finally decided to write a “barnfind car stories” book.  It’ll be called Exotic Barnfinds, and true to that name, will focus on wonderfully derelict Aston Martins, Ferraris, Maseratis, Mercedes, Porsches and anything else that fits reasonably within that definition.

And I need your help, please, to find the best of those stories to include in this book.  I’d love to hear from you with any great, exotic barn finds you are aware of.  And NOT the ones that have been published in other books before.  I can’t pay you, but I’ll credit you for the story and photos and send you an autographed copy of the book, or two.

We can develop detailed copy as we go, but in the mean time, please send me an email with a little bit about the car, and a photo if you have one.  Photos are critical in all this, we need fairly good quality, medium to high res jpg files to go to print with; most cellphone snaps aren’t good enough quality or high enough resolution, so hopefully something shot with a real camera.

Thanks so much,
