The underground barn find
Because this underground barn find is in an undisclosed location, YouTuber and car detailer, Larry Kosilla of AMMO NYC, warns that light and space is limited.
There are approximately rare and unique 300 barn find models in total in the secret facility.
In fact, this is only building one of three.
They range from a Ferrari race car to Lamborghinis – including an LM 002 which is thought to have belonged to none other than Nicholas Cage.
That’s not all, there are also cars by Porsche, Maserati, Mercedes, Mustang, as well as a Ford GT, 1969 and 1967 Dodge Charger Hemsi, RS Camaros, Corvettes, Cobras, and Rolls Royces.
Other highlights include a Hurst Oldsmobile, Plymouth Street Rod, Pontiac Convertible, Superbird, and a custom BMW.
Several of these cars have unique histories, either having rare customizations or being barn finds before they joined the collection.
The owner of the secret collection
The owner – who chose to remain anonymous – has a passion for a diverse range of cars.
It’s said he put the collection together based on models that resonated with him personally, whose historical significance struck him, or simply because he met the owners and fell in love with them.
Last but not least, Kosilla comes across a storage area filled with engines, transmissions, and even more cars, including a GT40 kit car.

All Supercar Blondie contributors undergo editorial review and fact-checking to ensure accuracy and authority in automotive journalism. After gaining her BA Hons in French and English at the University of Nottingham, Amelia embarked on a vocational diploma from the National Council for the Training of Journalists (NCTJ). This led to numerous opportunities, from interning at Vogue to being on the small team that launched Women’s Health magazine in the UK, which was named the PPA Consumer magazine of the year for three years running. As Health, Beauty and Fitness editor, Amelia personally received a Johnson & Johnson Award and was shortlisted for both PPA and BSME titles. Since then, Amelia has created content for numerous titles and brands, including the Telegraph, 111 Skin, Waitrose, Red magazine, Stylist, and Elle, as well as being Head of Content at Vitality and Editor in Chief at INLondon magazine. “My superpower is translating technical jargon about the mechanical workings of a supercar into a relatable story you’ll want to share with your friends after you’ve read it.” After joining the SB Media family as a senior journalist in September of 2023, Amelia’s role has evolved to see her heading up the SEO output of the editorial team. From researching the most ‘Google-able’ key terms to producing evergreen content - it’s been a time of hard work, growth, and success for the editorial team and the Supercar Blondie website. “I like to think of myself as a ‘method journalist’. In other words: I live and breathe whatever I am writing about. When writing about fitness, I trained as a personal trainer, and as a beauty editor, I completed an ‘expert’ in scent diploma with the Fragrance Foundation. “During my tenure at Supercar Blondie, however, I did something I never thought possible: I passed my driving test at the age of 36. One day I’d love to train as a mechanic to better understand what happens under the hood, too. “My sweet spot is providing readers with a ‘takeaway’ (read: something new they didn’t know before) after reading every one of my stories. While I don’t claim to be an expert in the automotive world, I know the experts and bodies in the field to rely on to provide our readers with an informative and thought-provoking story every time they visit the site.”
