while i agree with this, buyers should keep in mind they will probably end up spending anywhere from $15k to $25k or more to properly restore a barn find.
compare that to the bluebook value, and you'll realize that people who restore/hotrod these cars do it for the love of the car, and not to turn a quick profit.
if profit is what you have in mind (and it seems to be for people seeking barn finds), the 951 is not for you.
