A new generation of barnfind: the forgotten project

One tends to think, all barns have been checked. All cars have been found. Nothing to discover again. So wrong, so wrong. A barnfind, no matter if it was discovered in the fifties, the eighties or today is nothing more than a car that has been out of sight for a long time. Like the Hupmobile that was listed yesterday (43 years garaged). Or the Minerva that was listed several days earlier (50 years garaged). Or the Lancia Dilambda that came in just today( long, long forgotten in an Italian collection). When was BGO 756 last seen in the UK ? Or should we say, when was it first seen there? The car has no Italian coachwork but a very elegant low roof sports saloon body by Carlton Carriage Co. ltd. (photo courtesy Italparts.com).
