What’s In Gary’s Barn?

garys-garage

Barn Finds reader Gary M. has a nice collection, with a good amount of variety. Some of his cars are rather easy to identify though, so to make it more challenging, you now have to identify the make, model, and year. Our thanks to Gary for sharing his “barn” with us! If you think the cars in your “barn” could stump our reader’s collective knowledge, then please send us some photos.

    I’m going purposely vague on years (can’t see enough details on any but the early ’30s Chev sedan to discern the exact year) so probably zero correct. Counterclockwise from front : ’01-04 Corvette Z06, ’63-67 Corvette convertible, 356A or B Porsche coupe, ’53 or ’54 Corvette, ’68-82 Corvette, ’67-68 Camaro coupe, ’30-32 Chevrolet sedan.

    GaryMc, my compliments on a nice nice selection of toys.

      Also remarkably close and great job on the 356. The stumper is that one in the back left corner.

      The ‘stumper’ in the back left corner looks more like a ’28-’29 Dodge than a ’34, so I’m guessing that you’re likely correcter than me, but who knows?

      The thing is, back a long time ago Scientific American had a 2-page spread that showed drawings of the front of every car made in the US, and at a glance they all looked the same—flat exposed rad/rad cowl/big lights/big bumper. You had to study the small details up close to see any difference and distinguish makes.

        It’s funny how many times this “look alike” comment is made of modern cars

        I think you could say that all modern cars look ‘alike’ because they are all ‘aero’ at the front due to fuel mileage requirements, but there are many different grille sizes / shapes / treatments, different headlight / fender shapes, different overall frontal areas because some cars are giant SUVs and some are tiny mileage-makers for their manufacturers’ overall CAFE, and so on. Manufacturers are looking for some distinctiveness in a sea of competition.

        Back in the late ’20s / early ’30s most US cars had a big flat rad in a thin cowl, 2 big lights, a horizontal battering-ram bumper, and were BIG, so for me it is harder to tell them apart. And there was just about no foreign competition to influence them to be very different from each other.

        So are you going to say what your cars are?

    Ok, here it is…back row, left to right…’30 Studebaker Commander, ’68 Camaro (orig owner), ’82 Collector Edition Corvette, ’54 Corvette. Up front, on rack, ’01 Z06, ’65 Corvette (a/c 2nd owner) and ’58 356A Porsche. This was fun and I’m impressed with the guesses.

    Thanks for a fun one, GaryMc. Your ’30 Stude Commander threw me for a loop, thought I could make out a blue Chevrolet “bow-tie’ on the radiator shell. Again, my compliments on your tows and your toy shop. SCCG
