Barn Find 1980s NASCAR Thunderbird & Buick Saved From Time! Abandoned After Days of Thunder Filming

What happens here

The video opens by introducing the main characters, Carlos Gann (HSR Racer & Vintage Racecar Restorations) and Jim Barfield (Vintage Race Car Restorations Crew Chief), and hints at the discovery of two 80s NASCAR Cup cars. Shots show a Miller Buick NASCAR car and another in a transport trailer, labeled #11. The team then travels to Spartanburg, South Carolina, to a junkyard filled with various vintage cars.

Goal: Introduce the project and the initial discovery of the NASCAR cars.

What they say

Hide

We're the hillbilly pickers. So, do your negotiations usually go that well? Yeah, sometimes. Somewhere in these woods, there's a shipping container with an old Budmore Thunderbird stuffed in it that has not seen the light of day in 30 years. Appears we have entered a graveyard of fox bodies and other mustangs. Oh my god. Well, I guess we are walking to wherever this thing is. Yeah, this way they go. Right there.
