Please. It's a 1991 964. Please detail it and clean it.

There has to be some rule about what year car constitutes a 'barn find' even if its found in a barn. Heck, I bet many people still use a barn to park their car. At what point is it just a used car that someone left in a barn? And last time I left my cars in a barn for storage they got water damaged.

I'd drive it, for under $25k. Not at that price. But someone will.

Sounds kind of gay, not that there's anything wrong with that.

So I check this car out as I was in Calgary. It's been on sale forever..

It has a salvage/flood title. But it was washed to a 'clean' title somehow by IBC. The car had visible rust spots, dings, dents, rough paint, rough roof. It 'smoked blue' but engine was free of oil. Inside has visible water damage.

And it was sold for almost full price.

Doesn't surprise me. Thanks for the update.
