Pretty badass. Can’t believe they are still “finding” cars like these...

Looks like it could have been a pirates booty. Fitted in a box container, someone was trying to keep it from being seen.

What would that go for in its current condition if you had to give an educated guess?

I'd love to find something like that. Who wants to go hunting?

Damn, I was thinking R code Fairlane.

That is amazing. I would love to see it fully restored back to showroom stock condition.

My dad as 2 of those exact cars; one is a 427 425HP in very similar condition and one is a 427 390HP in better condition;

That car would bring $35-45k++ the way it sits and over $100k restored if it's optioned nicely (tri-carb, power windows, telescoping wheel ect)

Do a Google search on "amazing barn finds" and you'll see quite a few older collectible cars that are in various states of decay. One that I saw was half buried in soil. A shame to see valuable collectibles just wasting away.

Found this in my garage. Also a ‘66, and in about the same shape. It will be a frame off restoration project. I’ve had it in storage for almost 10 years until the house was built.
