On going through the car classic classifieds and then the ebay links, I'm finding 'barn find' on almost every listing.

Gets me thinking, are there enough barns in the country to house these so called finds?

There's a barn in Hertfordshire full of barns. So the supply chain will continue for a while.

Everything's a barn find these days.

There's currently a car being shared on the Barn Find pages on Facebook as having not moved in 18 years, which was a surprise to me as I built it and abused it on every circuit in the country, before selling it two years ago.

I'm not sure how to link from Facebook but if you come across a Red Escort on the barn find pages, that's it.

No it's a mk4 RS Turbo. I saw that one too though, there's also a mk2 Mexico claimed as a barn find advertised too.
