Not so much a barn find as a lien sale for storage fees. A friend of mine offers storage for cars on a couple of floors of his store and one of the cars is going up for a lien sale pretty soon. The owner has stored the car there since 2001 and is now $11K in arrears on the fees. The car looks complete and a good candidate for restoration, but not for any of us. The plan is to acquire it at the lien sale (serious buyers not expected), get it running, then put it on eBay, BaT, or some Austin Healey websites. The odometer reads 78,900 miles, but nothing is known about the history. It will be interesting to see if it comes to life with fuel tank cleaned, fluids and battery changed, etc.

What do you think it's worth if it runs okay?
