Barn find Ferrari 512BBi coming back to life after 17 years off the road

This dad and daughter were extremely pleased to come back from a trip to Michigan with an amazing find – a 1966 Ferrari.

The 1966 Ferrari 330 GT was in good shape but hadn’t been driven since the 1970s, so it was dealing with the effects of time.

Despite the dust, it remained a beautiful and rare find that seemed to require very little in terms of repairs.

The team were also surprised to go home with another surprise hidden gem for their troubles as well…

Finding the 1966 Ferrari

This father and daughter YouTuber duo travelled to Michigan with nothing to meet with the sellers of this amazing car, hoping that they could return home with it.

The Ferrari had been discovered in a barn and was in surprisingly condition considering its lack of road use.

All of the electrics and wiring seemed to work really well, and there weren’t too many issues with the body of the vehicle.

Apart from a thick layer of dust, the car seemed to have a lot of rare original parts and was in great working order.

Some of the original parts the car came with were Pininfarina jack plugs and wheels with the prancing horse emblem, very rare parts that would take a long time to find if they didn’t come with the car.

Barn find Ferraris are rare, but always a treat when they do happen.

A surprise hidden gem

Dennis and his daughter always make sure to ask if there are any more hidden gems that they might have missed.

The sellers of the Ferrari showed the duo a perfect 1934 Morgan three-wheeler, which was in better condition than they expected and appeared fully restored.

They were pleased with their surprise find and even though they went to Michigan with nothing, they came back with two high-quality retro classic cars.

Sometimes, barn finds are even more surprising than a second car.

You just never know what you’re going to turn up.
