In an upload to YouTube, Heart Of Texas Barn Finds and Classic's takes a long walk through a large collection of cars and trucks in Whitney, Texas. The classic cars range from as far back as the 1950s to the modern era. The collection includes many vehicles from American, Asian and European automakers; some of which are mainstream and in large supply, in addition to more unique cars like a Volkswagen Thing, Austin-Healey and many others that are not commonly seen on the road today.
Exploring The Property Reveals A Variety Of Classic Cars
The initial walkthrough of the property quickly reveals a vast collection of vehicles from a wide range of makes and model years. The cars are in varying conditions, some of which are potential candidates for a full restoration, as well as others better suited for rat rods or as parts for other vehicles. Some of the vehicles have fallen subject to weather though, likely due to the dry Texas climate, the majority of the vehicles do not appear severely affected by rust. The collection has several VW bugs as well as a VW camper van that remains in fairly clean condition. The owner additionally has a 1963 Cadillac that is missing some body parts but does have a brand-new engine and transmission. There are a large number of pickup trucks, including a short bed Dodge and another Dodge with a 440 big block.
Sports and muscle cars are in plentiful supply with vehicles like a '79 Pontiac Firebird, some Camaros, an MG Midget, several Datsuns and Karmann Ghia all having their place on the property as well as a Malibu wagon, '53 Plymouth, Ford Mustang II and a large number of Ford Crown Victorias and Mercury Grand Marquis', one of which made an appearance in the film The Seventh Day with Guy Pearce. The owner mentions that the majority of the vehicles were in running condition, stating that he drove most of them to their current location under their own power.
