This car archaeologist uncovered a bunch of classic muscle cars in a Wisconsin barn.
US-based YouTuber Auto Archaeology mentioned that the cars in this barn were rare, and he wasn’t lying.
They included a one-year-only 1975 Buick Century Free Spirit Pace Car, a custom 1969 Chevrolet Corvette, and a Mr. Norm Six Pack Superbee.
Dusty exteriors aside, they have fared well over the years.

A closer look at this Wisconsin car graveyard
All three of the aforementioned cars have been off the road for quite a number of years.
The Superbee and Buick have been out of commission since the early 1990s, while the Corvette has been dormant since 2005.
He first takes a look at the Superbee, which is a V-Code, meaning it has a 440 Six-Pack engine.
With a Mr. Norm’s sticker plastered on the back, it’s clear that this was sold in the garage of Norm Dodge back in the early 1970s.
For those not in the know, Dodge was the co-owner of Grand Spaulding Dodge back in the era of muscle cars.
It’s exterior has held up remarkably well and the inside isn’t looking too shabby either.
Moving over to the Buick, he identified it as being an Indianapolis 500 pace car edition from 1975.
Whilst its paint has faded in parts, its exterior is in top shape.
There must be something special about the Badger State, as this isn’t the first time a special barn find has been uncovered in Wisconsin.
The state of the 1969 Chevrolet Corvette
The final car of the trio, the 1969 Corvette, has held up relatively well but isn’t without it issues.
Besides the flat tires, the car has a bit of a mold issue.
But the interior is in good shape, with gorgeous grey velour seating.
As far as old out-of-use cars go, it’s interior is looking great – especially compared to this Camaro which hasn’t seen action in 30 years.
The cars should be good to get back out on the road, and the current owner is planning to get them out of the barn.
It was estimated that the Buick would be the easiest to put back onto the road.
