Barn Find: 2 BMW E30 M3s, Ford RS200, Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.5-16V Evo II

How do these people find these cars? It makes me want to drive out to the middle of nowhere Georgia and ask a bunch of farmers if they have any cars for sale or if I can spot one for sale on someones lawn!

That RS 200 is one of my favorite cars. I heard a Ford engineer mention the engine lasted only 10 hours. Enough for a ralley tho.

"Ohh yes... Id be very glad to help you clean out your barn and get rid of all these old nasty cars ! "
