I am somewhat sceptical, given the date it was posted on the toob and the fact that none of these cars have flat tyres despite apparently being in a barn for 30 years. On the other hand, it would take one seriously dedicated prankster to assemble umpteen million quids worth of cars stacked up like that and dress them up in fake dust just to fool the internet. So if it is real, it’s huge.

It's not all 'genuine'. I spotted a Noble P4 replica amongst them.Originally Posted by GraniteQuarry

Edit: I see that a Noble is mentioned in the video commentary:
But what is parked next to the Bizzarrini P538 being detailed is a different car (note the rear bodywork) ....It was parked next to a Noble with a Ferrari engine which was also in need of an extreme detailing.
From what I can see of it, that looks rather more like a genuine Ferrari 365/P2 (but I may be wrong).

Anybody else thinking shades of Walter Medlin ?
Holy crap, Gemballa Avalanche! One of my childhood icons
Ford GT in there too :)
There’s some jewels in there, p4!

Without wishing to derail the thread:
Why would you 'detail' a car like that prior to auction when patina (dirt, by any other name, in this case) adds to the authenticity of the back-story (and the hammer-price)?
Where's Wayne Carini when you need him?
BTW, when did 'barn-finds' have curators? It's a warehouse full of cars that numerous people knew about, not one or two cars discovered in a byre!

Jim.
I Love Wayne Carini, he would handle the sale of that collection completely differently, dust sells at auction.
Are you the same 'Macca' (Paul M) from FerrariChat / Autosport-TNF ?
Must be some collection if it goes to warehouse 2 and 3 :O
Is Wayne still doing car shows? Not heard much recently about him?
I once visited a barn with lots of lovelies in (on a much smaller scale) that the owner had bought for his "retirement" fund. I heard later, that the guy had dropped down dead with a heart attack after pushing a broken down vehicle, a month after he retired! Live for today................. or for when we all get out of this ****!
I once had to do an install at a very wealthy customers palatial mansion. Parking round the rear of it to access the tradesman's entrance, I noticed quite a few stables. Expecting to see horses in them I took a look and saw them all containing Ferraris!
He was a collector 😳
I don't think it's really a barn find at all is it. It's just the dusty car collection of a reclusive kleptomaniac. The only difference between this and any other collection is he hasn't been driving them or posting them on Instagram. I can see that if a Bizzarrini sits in a barn in Ohio and is discovered by a mans grandchildren after he's passed then the condition is important but the value here is in the car not the story.
Update video to this:
Curious to note the 'curator' makes some mistakes in her descriptions
