The only thing i find in barns are broken down lawn mowers....
Henk is that neccesarily a bad thing?
Well you can have fun with a lawnmower engine
Lawn mower collector: The only thing I find in barns are broken down cars...
Think about dust collectorers....
Hahahaha
How is this man's shirt too big and too small at the same time
Skinny fat?
He borrowed it from Doug Demuro?
I didn't pay to much attention to it, but after this comment I keep laughing.
It’s the V-neck and a straight cut pattern and (at least) a size too large... essentially a cylinder that narrows at the shoulders. Look for _”tailor fit”_ shirts (tucks in under the armpits) and for frells sake don’t wear V-necks !!
The fact that people answered this question legitimately is awesome. Underrated comment too for sure
"So I dissolved the bodies in acid"
-vinwiki music plays
We need Walter White on here...stat.
That’s a Hollywood rookie move... ask any pig farmer.
@@xrayron9557 You need at least sixteen pigs to finish the job in one sitting, so be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm. They will go through a body that weighs 200 pounds in about eight minutes. That means that a single pig can consume two pounds of uncooked flesh every minute. Hence the expression, "as greedy as a pig."
Funny but it would be more accurate to say dissolved the bodies in a base. It is known that the Mafia and other crime organizations used strong bases to dissolve bodies because it can do it better and faster.
@@acoustic6865 I thought just cement shoes were the Mafia thing.
Forza Horizon Barnfinds actually happened. Amazing.
Except that they didn't drive through any buildings or were driving on the wrong side of the road.
How did you know I found Forza Horizon in a barn...
Hi Deodorant
Love your videos bro!
Barn find stories actually happen
I can’t imagine the feeling of walking into a barn and finding something like that. Great discovery John!
You shouldve been there for some shrude negotiating. Doesnt seem like he got a deal. Take a page from Kimmy the stripper's story.
Imagine being held at gunpoint (bear with me) by a literate animal,
and the only hope of rescue is (BEAR WITH ME) posting a coded message on RUclips.
Ed, I have a proposition for you! I'm a student of the law and I found a legal loop hole (and I can document this claim) that has allowed me 33 out of 33 traffic violations to be nully processed, not costing a dime, no court cost, points, etc, thrown out as if they didn't exist. The next time you get a SPEEDING ticket (or any ticket) I will represent you for free in return for a 30 second advertisement, spreading my name in the vinwiki community. Dynamic.jpd@gmail.com if your interested or curious. -John
@T Web Thank you for your input... were all just going to ignore you now, like you don’t exist. Ya know like your family and last girlfriend does. 👍
whats the point of logging out, logging in in another account that you never use and acting like you're just another viewer and then logging back in to this account and uploading the next video?
Hanging out around barns I always kept my eye for the Farmers daughter...... Maybe I should have been lookin' for classic Lambo's lol Great Vid John
Rob Pitts well you'd have been happier in the long run with a car
Keep your eye on the daughter,but also keep your eye out for the farmer and his shotgun.
And the only cool Lambo story I have is when I was 9 and dropped a 1:64 Matchbox Countach in the toilet. Yes, it was a toilet find Lamborghini for my mom.
Well that must have been shit...
The real question is how you managed to eat the matchbox Countach in the first place...
@@tylenol_jones That line of events was inferred not implied, I dropped it out of my hand, not my colon :D But anyone that has watched Jackass knows the possibility exists so I won't fault your judgement ;)

My dad used to take me to the Sydney international motor show every year. It was the quintessential father son bonding ritual. I was 13, the year 1967, walking between the various halls there was this car being driven down from a trailer. A lime green Lamborghini Miura. It was my first supercar sighting. It punctuated my interest in cars with the loudest roar as the driver manoeuvred this sleek wedge of exotic automobile into its display. Every time i see one I’m reminded of that day and what was borne in me.
Pays 1.4 million for a car. Shows up to his vinwiki interview in his lawn mowing shirt. Priceless
Lol. 'The shirt off his back'.
What’s even more crazy is that shirt probably sellls for $100+ in Miami
Living frugal at its finest. Puts money into his business not his clothes
Didn't pay 1.4m .. that was the initial asking. But that's not the point.
I no this is way old but I couldn’t help myself John doesn’t pay for anything ever it’s always somebody else’s money
Went out and double checked in my barn again this morning..nope just a few boxes and a busted weed eater 🤷🏻♂️
Yeah my barn is no good at finding things either, I think it's defective.
Keep checking
Yea, still just rusty bolts and bat shit here.
A busted weed eater you say?Is the handle broken?
Someone: Hey are you interested in buying this miura which i found in a barn while looking for used lawn mower ?
John Temerian: Actually.....
I love Lamborghini Miura.
It’s a rare Miura SS, they only made one ☝️
John: oh... *rolls eyes* wow never heard of that 🤦♂️
I dunno... kinda sounds like they met right smack in the middle at... 1.4 mil 😂
Shrewd 1.4 mill 😂
Lmfaoooo. I love what Ed considers to be right smack dab in the middle
@msaleh93 It’s a “take it” or “leave it” strategy and just so you know when Ed encounters this he walks away from the deal 100% of the time.
Seller: I need $450k
Ed: but this vehicle needs some of that to make me comfortable. (Lists numerous things the car needs) I’d really have to be in around $390k.
Seller: I said it’s $450k I know what I have
Ed: Yes sir you do but right now I know you don’t have a sale because what the car needs vs what you want just doesn’t add up to make it worth it for me. Thank you for your time. Here is my number.
(Guy calls months later)
Seller: Hey Ed if you still want the car I’ll do it for $400k
Ed: Oh well the market, parts, bla bla bla... I can do $375k, what do you need to get out of it?
Seller: but Ed months ago you offered me $390k??
Ed: Well that was my mistake after thinking about it I’m actually glad you didn’t take my offer.
Seller: C’mon you can do better than that.
Ed: Ok... if you make this deal quick and easy for me I’ll do $385k.
Seller: OK
Ed: (goes to see car and pounds guy back down to $375k)
Tells everyone they met right in the middle at $375k 👍
It takes time and patience and the willing to ALWAYS walk away because there is ALWAYS another car. It’s a win win situation. The only time you lose is when it’s something you want or have to obtain.
@@xrayron9557 Could hear his voice while reading that comment, great work haha
@Agret Thanks, I used to work for a guy who negotiates like Ed. We constantly got skipped for raises and when we said something he would always give this speech about the money just isn’t there... bla bla bla then 3 days later he would drive up to the shop in a GTR he just bought and come show us his new $10k Rolex...
I was like cool... I waited like 10 minutes and asked him “what time is it?”
He pulls out his phone and says “11:30”
I said “Good thing you wasted $10k on a watch 😂”
Guy would buy the cheapest air filters for the AC and rig anything to save a buck... but when it came to something he wanted... “spared no expense”
I’m not saying Ed is like this but it wouldn’t surprise me to see Ed pull the nearly empty peanut butter jar from the trash... scold his wife about “waste” then microwave it to liquify every remaining drop of peanut butter as a “savings” while shopping for designer flyswatters. 😂
Great story. What blows me away is that the body style of the Miura is so elegant and sleek that it take my breath away. I never took a great interest in early Lambos, but now I am and I'm impressed. Thank you VinWiki.
John Temerian always has great exotic car stories especially since he's an exotic pedigree car buff guy himself. Now if vinwiki can some how get his grandpa and dad to eventually come on the show that would be kick ass.
My brother found a 1967 spitfire in a barn. The tank had sand in it. He got it running and drove it. We worked at the same hospital, so I was able to help tow the car home on the days it wouldn’t run. So he gutted the car. Rebuilt everything. And ran as well as a British car could. Sold it when he had kids. Now the oldest is 16, he picked him up from a friend’s house...another 1967 spitfire was in their barn. The car was apart but the parts were in restored rust free condition. He bought it for pennies and it working on it today.
Miura's and countach's imo are the most beautiful lambos ever made perfectly designed for their era's
True, although I hate the Countach... And aside from the headlights I think the Miura is one of the best cars ever made. Maybe I'll have to see one in person.
No way! I saw this car a few years ago in Tampa, and made a whole video about it. Crazy story, huh?
I saw it when the hockey player owned it, nice guy but yeah it was hard to get a straight story about how it was found 😅
what hockey player? Former NHL player living in Tampa...... I hear those old lambos are tiny inside.... maybe Martin St Louis?
@@evangay4051 Pavel Kubina
The dude who sold the vintage Alfa that didn't check the VIN numbers....yeah, that guy needs to listen to this.
Nice Barn and Great Miura Lambo deal.!! In 1989 I went to purchase a beautiful 1967 GTO Convert in Merced CA for $7000. I show up to this farm and the son was selling off his late Father's collection. In this one barn with 14 cars, I saw a car cover with a single roll bar under it. He told me it was a Ford Cobra Mustang..?... We removed the cover and there was a AC Cobra with a 427. He told me it was listed in Hemmings for $30,000. I immediately split the $7000 into two $3500. deposits for the GTO and Cobra. I drove back to Palo Alto and got a loan from a Venture Capital Attorney I did some business with...I then raced back to Merced with $30k in cash and a 2 car trailer and did the deal.. Some guy named Leno wound up with this AC Cobra a few years later .......
thats an awesome story! Do you still have the GTO?
@@boerharms2209Thanks..! I sold that 1967 GTO a few years later to a collector in Chicago. I still have another 1967 GTO Convert in my collection.
He just said Leno bought the car I'm assuming "Jay Leno"
This is the second video I have seen on this gentleman. He has passion like few I have seen and he is a fantastic story teller.
love stories by this guy finding old exotics. very cool. He obviously knows his stuff.
Listening to this story had me feeling sketchy not only on the description on the ad, but I would've been concerned the guy was trying to sell this out from under his boss without his knowledge, leaving the buyer in legal hell while the seller would be in the wind. Good to see it didn't go _bad end_ like I thought.
You find a Miura and I can't even find my phone when it falls on the side of my car seat
Mike Jones did you try an eBay search?
Have you looked behind you fridge?
Just imagine finding this in a barn. Absolutely insane
I really like the stories from John!! Super fascinating
He's got his own YT channel. I found it after his rise and fall story on this channel. I highly recommend it, he's a great story teller with some crazy experiences.
Love this dudes stories. Awesome.
If someone posted an ad for a car in a barn then you did not find a car in a barn. You found an ad.
On eBay
Columbus "discovered" America. The people already living there were irrelevant to the story. LMFAO
@@Wodz30 thats not equivalent either. If this guy would have been walking through a field and found a barn with a miura in it and said he found, while the owner stands there and says nope I put that there it wasnt lost would be an analogy of what you said. The analogy for what this guy did would be for the Indians to get on a boat and go to Europe with a map saying " hey. Here is a land we have you want it." And Columbus going there and saying look what I found.
@@xrayron9557 We're never gonna ban guns.
@@xrayron9557 guns aren't going to be banned libshit
Excellent story. Enjoyed it!
Barn find stories are always great. It would be cool to find out the backstory of who owned it, when it was last driven and how it ended up in a barn.
Barn finds are the best finds. Especially when the car needs some tlc. It's a satisfying thing to bring the car back to life, and to add to its story!
You have no idea, its an honor to be part of some cars resurrection and journey!
@@WeAreCurated truly amazing
Yeah, I have one of those waiting for me. '62 T-Bird that came with the house. Haters gonna hate, but I wanna swap in the drivetrain out of an ex-squad Crown Vic so the wife can roll in it. She can't do the clutch on my '65 Galaxie (see avatar), gas ain't $0.25/gal anymore, and a 4-spd slushbox is better than a 3-spd on the hi-way.
@@goofyleo3869 beautlful ride brotha. Enjoy
This dude is the best have him on more !
Immediately knew this was going to be a great story!
Marvelous! what an amazing,gorgeous vehicle to deal in/ with
Initially I must add that I thought viddy was a bit of a “knob” (I’m Australian) but I’ve kept that to myself to this point, but the way he projects himself is amazing, I know really like him, he puts the story really well, thanks Ed and all the crew
GREAT STORY EDDIE🤓👍
So many cool stories about finding cars in barns.
It gives you that warm feeling of "oh nice I guess I'll just die here on my way to a miura that doesn't exist because I lost signal in a stranger's car". Gotta love that kind of warm feeling
Always enjoyed picking up those kinda cars... Certain kinda satisfaction knowing a car that's been neglected is being brought new life.
Well played Masivadel well played,.
This is a literal treasure hunt. Deep in the rural and urban jungle lies a Miura lost to time
Loving the Miura, such a beautiful piece of a car!
Especially when one of them was used in the film the Italian job
More stories from John would be very much welcomed.
You got Rabbit, Ed, Casey and now...welcome John 🎉👏🎉

Awesome story!!!
Amazing story!
Such a great story
Great story!
I love those vintage Italian motor cars..I was priviledged enough to help restore a 1947 Cisitalia racecar chassis #043 back in late 1980s and early 1990s..It had a full European race history and was purchased as a derilict by the owner who restored it in 1958 in Middle River Maryland...He had done thousands of hours of research tracing its history or racing and who and how many were made.. Very uber rare car..Pre Ferrari racecar built by Enzo Ferrarri and Pinina Farrina themselves..Between 1946 and 1951 they had built 149 cars and only 47 still exist on this planet...So I understand pedigree and builder status...Rock on brother..
Fantastic story
Nice barn find :D
I could tell you were from Curated just from the photos! Amazing photos and amazing cars! I follow you on Insta!
I met a guy through a family friend about 2 years who showed me his barn or barns and there are about 30 or more classic muscle cars in their still sitting to this day like a Pontiac GTO, Stingrays, Nomads, etc
I love the vids keep it up
The super famous air box Corvette that sold maby like 13 years ago came from a barn about 3 miles from where I live in Ohio that was a real find

Beautiful car!
great story.
I had a slot car in the 70's it was one of these. I've wanted one ever since. I'm now nearly 60 and still dreaming
the color of this car looks so close to the color of the matchbox king size they made in the late 60s early 70s...awesome
Ah, this is a good morning viddy. Thanks VinWiki
What a beautiful car
when you're earlier than papa ed...
impressive.
😂
Good morning and good story!!
nice find!
I got a 1965 Chevy Impala SS off a barn find off a customer of mine. Husband just passed away and I got a steal on it. Right place right time sometimes
I actually found this Miura when I was taking a walk in the woods. I came across an old barn and sure enough there it was.
Yeah such awesome & rare car, believe me their are more rare cars like this stashed away just got be lucky enough to find them.
Curated is an awesome shop...more museum than dealership.
I know exactly how you felt! i once found a loose M&M under the seat of a rental car. Jackpot!
the ultimate barn find
Good story.
John is an excellent addition to VINwiki! (...sorry for calling your dad's SV an OCD Edition). (c;
Thanks for the story Jorge Masvidal!
looool
I restored one of these in Yellow recently 😎
How did it go? Any challenges of note? Does it really sound and feel like it looks?
Wasn't the car listed on Ebay where it was "discovered?" And it just happened to be parked in a barn.
Was it really?

Does anyone know the name of the song playing in the outro (for the Michelin / Butler tires promo)? I fell in love with the song over the last few videos, and can't get it out of my head!
I know of a garage 45 minutes of my house, by Lake Huron with a Lotus Europa and Jaguar XK120
VINWIKI does the smart thing of showing a few seconds of the video at the start. Lots of creators don't edit the video at all.
Found a perfect 1962 Oldsmobile Cutlass F85 coupe in a small garage. Light blue metallic with white top, blue interior. 185 HP aluminum V8 with 4bbl carb, automatic transmission and 15" wheel options. Original bias ply tires, under 30K miles. The seller needed to pay nursing home bills. Her husband had been an Oldsmobile dealer, bought the car for himself right off the transport truck, never went through dealer prep so it had all the assembly line markings that normally got washed off. All it needed was a new muffler and a new battery. Replaced those along with engine oil and coolant and transmission fluid. Would be interesting to know where the car is now. Hopefully it's been well kept over the years.
This is why i Love Where i live..Nepa
Well told sir
Reminds me of something I saw on chasing classic cars.
My dad has a fun story. In 1998 he bought an original 1969 Boss 429 Mustang with 9,000 original miles. The guy also had a Shelby GT350 (cant remember the year) and wanted $15k for each of them. My dad would've bought both but didn't have the money, even had to borrow money to get the Boss. The car still has its original 1970 inspection sticker in the window. Found it flipping through the local newspaper classifieds.

There are still great cars out there to be found. My grandfather bought a brand new 59 Cadillac Eldorado. The family had done very well in the oil business back then and they lived in a small town in Oklahoma. So, grandpa buys his new Cadillac. That summer it has an electrical issue that disables the car. They tow it back to the house and put it in the garage. The story goes the nearest dealer is a few hours drive away & grandpa was mad because he wanted the dealer to pay for the tow and they refused. The car sat for months because, apparently, grandpa was always a stubborn old coot. Grandpa ended up buying another car and left the Cadillac sitting in the garage.
Fast forward to the 1970s. I was a young kid and I fell in love with the old car in my grandparents garage that hadn't moved since 1959. My cousin and I would spend a month or so at my grandparents house every summer and we would play in the car.
Now, early 80s, I got my drivers license and I wanted that Cadillac. Grandpa had passed away and grandma had promised it to me when I graduate high school. I graduated in 86 and started college. I had no money to put into the car and I had no place to keep it so, revised plan, I get it after I graduate college.
During this time, grandma had started thinking I wanted the car so I could sell it for the money.
Grandpa never got over the tow issue so he badmouthed the car until the day he died.
Grandma had no idea that the car had notable collector value. In her mind it was a junk car but, for all practical purposes it was as close to brand new 1959 Cadillac as you are going to find. The rubber was rotted and it had a few minor dings from leaning bikes up against it and it got a couple of door dings over the years.
Grandma was well into her 80s at this point (1993) and someone had noticed the car in her garage.
She thought the car was junk and she thought I just wanted the money from selling it.
This guy told her it would be easier if she just sold the car to him and she could give me the money.
That's what she did and she was proud that she got $1,200 for "that old piece of junk"
I missed out, I am still irritated about that. I guess the ability to hold a grudge runs in the family but my point is, there are 320 million people in the US and there are many, many car stories out there and some of them end with the car is still sitting in the garage today.
Keep looking everyone. There are plenty of hidden gems out there waiting to be found.
you're a very brave man it sounded very sketchy all the way through, I wouldn't have touched it. well done you.
Wasn't aware how much these things are worth. I distinctly remember the time I had to take a die grinder to a Miura.
Any info about the modified miura that pops at 9:36? And I think the one from the story is the only one I've seen with glass louvers, any more info about that too?
My only barn finds in Texas are people wanting auction prices for rusted out hulls.
Same here on Ohio. People want top dollar for shit that should be in line at the crusher.
I know how that feels.i bought a gold orange looking 84corvette and sold it.one day isaw it in Grand prairie Texas for sale.man I wish that I could have now kept it.iwas supposed to give it to my son but he said it was too fast for him.now I wish that I would have just kept it anyway.maybe one day I'll find it and buy it back.peace
Note to self if I ever sell my car park it in a barn for a few weeks to get a good layer of dust then advertise as a barn find. It’s an all original 2014 Mazda so I’m sure it will bring in a cool million and be passed around all the best auction blocks.
I know of a miura on the pacific west coast 10 mins from me just sitting on blocks .....ran into it while at work was a treat to see!
I need to close in 48 hours.... a couple days later we got a deposit together
Anytime somebody says “I need to close in 48 hours” tell them ok 👌 call you back in 3 days.
God, Miuras are gorgeous!
And then my son walked in. VinWiki music starts playing
The extra S gave it an extra 20 horsepower... sheesh u guys dont know that?
What a ricer
Equivalent benefit to 20hp,S stood for slick,and the car cut through the air with unprecedented style(actually,at standstill,the car appeared to be moving at 14mph,so at say 100mph,it looked like it was doing 114mph.)No,really.🙃.
Curated had a lime green Murci six speed I desperately wanted...maybe someday...☹️
Great story. Left out one key detail... how much for the barn find Miura?
There are some italian sports cars that come as SS-Model from the factory (e.g. Maserati Merak SS). But of course there are those who modify/butcher cars, like Al Mardikian with the Lamborghini Countach SS.
