The barn finds
The car enthusiast behind the Adventures Made From Scratch YouTube channel got lucky down on the farm.
He discovered some seriously rare barn finds plus over 125 antique cars in an undisclosed location.
His search is in aid of discovering motors for Morris Yoder Auctions.
Like with most barn finds, the cars are in variously bad conditions, having been left sitting in fields since the 1970s.
Many of the cars are missing seats and parts, which were stored separately and can be easily restored to like-new condition.
Others are significantly rusted.
While some are salvageable, others will have to be sold for scrap.
As well as a rare Hemi engine, he discovers several Mercury models, a Plymouth Suburban wagon, and various Ford and Dodge trucks.
A Lincoln Premiere and Mercury Comet are especially uncommon finds.
“I have never seen so many Mercuries and Lincoln in one place in my life,” enthuses the host.
Other muscle car and farmyard barn finds
It contains some seriously rare Chevrolet cars – including a Fathom Green 1969 Z/28, multiple big blocks, and stacks of DZ engine blocks.
The crew also points to other highlights including a 1969 Z/28 Rally Sport and original Camaro parts.
Meanwhile, these billionaire American farmers have a multi-million dollar muscle car collection and found the perfect place to store them.
Last but not least, one man made an unbelievable automotive discovery at an abandoned British farmhouse.

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.”
