Well, my find wasn't in a barn, it was in a junkyard in Newport News,
VA.  It was a Lotus Eleven ex-works 1957 Sebring car.  Paid $400, talked
down from the asking price of $450. It was't very nice, but in 1972 it
looked really good to a high school junior, who drove a $325 1957 356A
Porsche cabriolet.  Yes, I sold the Porsche, but kept the Lotus.
