Episode 137
In this episode of "Barn Find Hunter," Tom discovers cars the organic way, by driving around and looking for Cars in yards, in hopes of more inside barns or garages. In doing so, Tom discovers a Triumph stag on a dead end road that leads him to the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. A treasure trove of forgotten vacation cars hidden in 100yr old barns.

100% he will never restore them!!!

@jameswells9749 Год назад

Waste of time and money

@Tmrfe0962 Год назад

Never….lol

@EstrogenGhoul Год назад

Yep, literally any guy who says I'm gonna restore it..... isn't going to. They would rather let it rot than sell. Very sad.

@06VistaBlueGT1 Год назад

So very true. It will just sit there forever!

My Dad's 1976 2002 (Fully built 2.0 with a 3 series 5spd) has been rotting in his driveway for the last 20+ years. It was his baby. He was going to restore it in the early 2000s but instead he decided to reset his life in 2004 and raise/adopt my niece and nephew. My niece is 22 and nephew is 19. But now he is 71yrs old and the car is too far gone to be affordable to restore. He has had offers but I understand why he won't get rid of it. All of his family memories we're in that car. I sadly never got to drive it, as it was already not running when I got my license. I loved that car as a kid. I even went as far as spending over 4 hours replicating the car's Alpina livery on Forza Horizon 4&5 just so I can drive it (kinda) :). The fact that he would rather watch the car rot vs selling it. Shows me how much he loved that car.

@rustyturner431 Год назад

OK... About the Stag: I managed a dealership that sold Triumphs (among other things) when these cars were current, and they were an unmitigated disaster. HORRID quality problems (see English union history), design flaws (the soft top would blow out from the B-pillars at speeds above 70mph, the A/C worked when it wanted to and leaked cold water the rest of the time). We were diligent about doing the PDI service beyond the book, so we didn't have the common head gasket issues, which were inherited by the TR-7s, but simple things like door fit and water leaks into the boot (trunk) were maddening and recurring. The automatic transmissions were prone to slippage and the overdrive units failed far more oftren than one would expect. This resulted in Stag customers being "one and done"; you couldn't trade them out of the car, because used ones were basically worthless and sale-proof, and they went away mad and never came back. So many problems, I could hardly blame them: good idea, rotten execution!

@cowsgomoo4618 Год назад

Back in '00 or '01 senior year high school did work study program at a local shop. Lead mech/co owner said they needed a car moved, I checked out went back to the guy and told him I don't how to drive stick. He said don't worry about I will help you. It was a plum purple/black top '76 Alpha Iniezone 2000 spyder.

@JeffyG Год назад

The term “barn find” implies an economic opportunity that really no longer exists. It started to disappear in the early 2000s and is effectively gone. There are no naive sellers in the rural USA underpricing old cars. Even the least informed old dudes have kids advising them with internet search skills. Sometimes cars are marketed as ‘barn finds’ to attract attention,, when the seller is asking far more than the car is worth.

Triumph Stags were JUNK, the engines were poorly designed and unreliable, they rusted away in hours, not years...they were NOT GOOD CARS!

@michaelhilber8284 Год назад

I had a 1976 BMW 2002 and it was my favorite car, of all time, by far. Handling was exceptional. Bought used from a BMW dealer in 1980, in great shape, traded in by the original owner who was getting one of the new 320i's. My 2002 had the 4 speed, I would not have wanted an automatic. Driving the 5 freeway from northern Calif to Southern I would usually cruise at 85 and that was something close to 4,000 rpms.

@kenrandall5680 4 месяца назад

This is the 1st video in the Barn Finder's series that I can say irritated me. The fellow showing Tom around reminded me of a politician / used car salesman from the 60's. He was yapping and going on like he was auditioning for his own channel. It was difficult to overlook his demonstrative personality.

@friguy4444 Год назад

They stand and shoot the guys talking about the BMW and how it has a swapped out engine etc. But they never even show us the engine and barly show the car! Come on Hagerty we've seen your incredible videos why can't you figure out that when talking about a car we'd like to see THE CAR!

@engir63 Год назад

This guy is not a car guy and he really needs to stop acting like he is teaching people how to do this, like he is some genius and is going to educate everyone when there are hundreds of youtube channels doing the same thing, him acting like he is the only one is self aggrandizing ignorance.

Love that Alfa 164, going to steal the spacer chain idea from the Guzzi, and can only hope that the BMW will once again see the light of day. More cool vehicles lost to the dream of "going to restore it one day."

@michaelhilber8284 Год назад

I had no idea Moto Guzzi even made a dirt bike. And I read, even collected motorcycle magazines back then. Must have overlooked it. Spent too much time looking at Penton, Husky, Bultaco.

Tom, I know you love the old metal, the older the better. But for me, that Alfa 164S is a great find! I have a lot of memories driving them around when I worked for an Alfa dealer, and a lot of stories about the owners. The cars had character, but so did the owners!

@friguy4444 Год назад

I would be willing to bet that if you gave that Stag to one of You Tube's notorious "Will it Run?" Video creators they would be able to get the stag running and driving at minimal cost. Now depending on how horrid the rust is underneath it may be a running and driving "Sculpure" OR it might be a car that has many more miles left in it. Just because a car has had rodents living in it for years is no reason to count it out. As we've seen time and time again in videos all the time here on YT. I love this channel and our host don't get me wrong I'm just saying I think he's not seeing what the car isn't Necessarily "Done". Because of a huge rodent infestation. Not that it wouldn't be disgusting to clean out, which is one of the more fun and interesting parts of watching "Will it Run?" Videos. LOL.

I hate Beamer. I would just call it a 2002 and leave the bmw part unsaid, taken for granted. "I owned a 2002." Actually now I own a 320i, 1980. I would never use beamer.

The Stag was supposed to be a British competitor to the Mercedes SL. It had the right credentials but Unfortunately it was poorly developed and terribly assembled
