This barn find in the UK is surprising for at least two reasons.
First, somebody found these pretty remarkable cars abandoned in a house that’s located right in the middle of a busy street.
The other strange thing is that these cars were parked one on top of the other.
This bizarre storage method definitely contributed to the decay because these cars are in a truly terrible condition.

One of the most coveted cars in the world
One of the cars found here is a decrepit Jaguar E-Type.
The wheels are flat and ruined, the car is covered in rust, the roof is bent, and the front hood is also damaged.
But the thing is, the E-Type is a car that’s worth a lot of cash even when it’s falling apart.

Part of the reason why the E-Type is so iconic is the way it looks.
Often called ‘the most beautiful car in the world’, the E-Type has also spawned a modern-day iteration made by a small-batch manufacturer called ‘Eagle’.
It’s called the Speedster and even though it uses modern technology, it visually looks exactly the same as the original E-Type.
Even Arnold Schwarzenegger owns one.
A barn find like no other

The video about the barn find was shared to YouTube by a channel titled UK Barn Find.
The thing that’s kind of odd about it is most barn finds involve abandoned warehouses or remote barns in the middle of nowhere.
But this one involves a regular street full of normal homes with everyday cars parked outside.
For whatever the reason, the house where these cars were parked is the only one that’s ruined, as are the cars.
Imagine living next to a house that hides a car potentially worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.
