Rare muscle cars found in trailers on rural Kentucky land

These tractor trailers on a rural property in Kentucky, US, might not look like much, but they contain extremely rare muscle cars.

Patrick Glenn Nichols came across them while traveling back from Ohio.

The contributing editor to HotRod Magazine decided to take a closer look and couldn’t believe what he’d uncovered.

Among the cars stored in these unassuming trailers were SS Chevelles, Z28 Camaros, and Pontiac Firebird Convertibles.

A closer look inside the muscle car stash in Kentucky

Nichols was given permission to look into the property, which was filled with old trucks.

The first muscle car he came across was a 1970 Chevelle, which was looking in pretty decent shape aside from a cracked front window.

“I’ve said it before, I’ve saved a lot worse,” Nichols commented.

The back window is entirely missing and there’s some damage to the rear.

But again, considering it’s been sitting out in an open field for years, it’s not holding up too badly.

Inside one of the tractor trailers, a Firebird Pontiac Convertible 400 was sitting pretty-ish.

According to details written on the windshield, this car has a fold-in seat.

Given that no seat is visible through the glass, it’s apparently in folded mode.

Kentucky seems to be playing host to a lot of vintage cars recently, like this 1968 Dodge Charger that has spent 43 years in a barn.

What else had been left on the property?

Sharing the trailer is a 1968 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 with a ‘rare but rough’ interior, as Nichols put it.

Heavy emphasis on the rough.

The car has basically been gutted with no engine, hood, or windows left.

Nichols wasn’t downplaying it when he mentioned it was a ‘basketcase’, although he felt it would still be worth saving.

And up in front of that is a 1969 Chevelle SS396 in Daytona yellow.

This is another car that has been well and truly gutted, with no engine to speak of.

But at least it wasn’t being investigated by the state police like this 1966 Chevelle.

Regardless of what state the cars are in, it’s cool to see them.

Hopefully one day they can be restored to their former glory and put back where they belong on the road.
