7 classics have recently been unearthed & recovered from a collection where they have spent decades being stored
Just that not well stored - This 1951 Series 1 Land Rover having suffered from the timber building it was in collapsing around it
Inside the shed adjacent to the Land Rover other vehicles have faired slightly better - but not that much better
There's a trio of E types which include this 1969 Series 2 4.2 convertible
Another 69' Series 2 4.2 convertible but in a very ratty state
Underneath the suspended AC is the third one - 1970 Series 2 4.2 Coupe but very badly accident damaged to the extent that a bodyshell would be required to save the car - look carefully the cars are stacked 3 high!
The 1957 AC Ace Bristol appears to be infinitely restorable
There's a 1959 AC Ace but this one has the less powerful AC engine fitted
Rounding up the collection is this 1955 AC Aceca - very desirable once restored
The entire collection is being auctioned at no reserve by Anglia Car Auctions at their next classic sale 19th / 20th August 2023 - Link below

Video of their extraction is here... I'm rather tempted to head over to ACA for a nosey when they go under the hammer... the Aceca particularly is rather tempting but will no doubt go for silly money.

1980 Rolls Royce Camargue with just 825 miles covered from new - in storage for 40 years but very poor damp storage and the car would require a substantial amount of money spent on it to bring it back from the dead
