LOL I'd settle for the Austin A40 or the Humber sceptre. Apparently all these cars came from different barns on this guys property.

Full catalog here: https://bidonline.ncmauctions.co.uk/...48/ncm-au10227

Lots of pictures of lots of seriously rubbish condition cars, but the auction has been pushed on places like Facebook so I'm sure lots of bidders will turn up and over pay for something way beyond their capabilities or budget to repair.

There are some serious cars in that lot but it's not until you zoom into the full picture that you get an idea of how bad some of these really are. If someone has a serious budget and has the time to restore then so be it, otherwise I think these will be brought by chancers to peddle on Ebay or suchlike, I guess most will end up just rotting away.

A few that spark a wee bit of interest but nothing that excites me. Sunroof on the campervan is a bit OTT and less said about the 6 wheel Range Rover the better, hideous!

Yes - I was surprised at just how bad the visible rot is on them - so how bad will the non-visible rot be?
