TorontoTim Posted June 11, 2020 Report Share Posted June 11, 2020 I love it (but I would replace the rear light lens...). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DavidBee Posted June 11, 2020 Report Share Posted June 11, 2020 (edited) Reminds me of Pogo's car. The cool alternative to Concours. Should be a Register Patina-Prize, i.e. Best Road-going Patina Car — sidescreen TR (actually any TR) at International Weekends.

Bleednipple Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 This is going to get much bigger I think. The 'survivor' look, I mean. Cars with genuine patina will be as prized as concours restorations, probably more so in fact. Another factor is the growth in classic motorsport esp rallying, hillclimbs et al. No point trying to keep a car pristine if it's going to get a bad case of gravel rash several times a year. And maybe a lot more general demand for weekend-drive classics as mainstream cars go EV.

TorontoTim Posted June 13, 2020 Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 I'm guessing it's because some states are so dry that you can leave cars like that without the risk that one day you just have a small pile of orangy-brown dust left in your garage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ocheye Posted June 17, 2020 Report Share Posted June 17, 2020 I’ve always been drawn to the oily rags rather than trailer queens at car shows. IMHO they are much more interesting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hi Alan, good isn't it, but sadly it's licensed library music commissioned for the show. It's not actually commercially available. However, there is a longer version of the theme at the end of another 'Barn Hunters' episode. Youtube link HERE (starting at 19'28") Cheers, Deggers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
barkerwilliams Posted June 19, 2020 Report Share Posted June 19, 2020 Deggers, Thank you. Yes I would have liked to hear more - more thanks for the link. Alan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
