    Barn Find

    Looks good for that price. :lolup:
    And it is a barn find. I saw the barn!
    I'm not sure if the rules are it must be in a barn or near one?
    At least the owner didn't call this a barn find. I give him points for that. But deduct points for the leather vinyl and two yellow plug wires.

    The fact that there is a barn near by should add some credibility to the seller. :D

    I agree. He didn't mention barns or patina. To me that's a plus. Not sure about the new tires or ran when parked. Looks like it sat there awhile and this would have been a pre-winter photo. maybe it should have been inside the barn.
    Seems to be a car collector. Not sure if that's a good thing or bad.
    As for this wagon it appears straight and low priced.

    If I were the seller I would stage the photo with some hay, chickens and cows.
    Maybe a farmers daughter sprawled out across the hood. :p

    Have you seen some of these modern day farmer's daughters? Those old hoods are not that well built!
    Maybe a Daisy Duke type daughter would make a quick sell.

    Reminds me of the famous 32 Ford coupe on the Hot Rod magazine years ago. The "chicken coupe."

    The farmers daughters I have in mind are purely fantasy. Please do not ruin that image for me.
    When I lived n Vermont the farmers daughters were built rugged to sustain the daily work. Big ass a barn!:rofl2:

    Right now the farmers daughters in Vermont are butt deep in snow and can't get to the barn.
    This ain't an island and the plane has landed boss!;)

    What are all of those stories about behind the barn? Farming is beginning to sound better all the time.
