It’s every
car-guy’s fantasy—to casually peer into a long-forgotten garage or barn or
warehouse and find the car he has searched for his whole life. Corvette in
the Barn is a
collection of true, often amazing, stories and essays about car collectors and
enthusiasts who have discovered unusual and desirable cars, forgotten in all
manner of locations from barns, to old-school junkyards, to farmer’s fields.
From Corvettes to These are the stories that fuel the dreams of car collectors
everywhere.
The barn-find series began with Tom Cotter’s love for driving down country roads in search of interesting cars. Back up a bit—the series really began because Cotter loves cars, and, like most of us who do, he dreamt of finding one in an old barn. He gathered all the stories he could find about such “lost” cars in his 2005 book, The Cobra in the Barn. The book became a national phenomenon that resonated with car buffs around the world. Cotter followed up with two other wildly popular books, The Hemi in the Barn and The Vincent in the Barn. Motorbooks is proud to bring the next book in the series to enthusiast bookshelves: The Corvette in the Barn.
About the Author Tom Cotter writes regularly for Road & Track and other magazines and has a deep-seated love for motorcycle and automotive rescue. The Corvette in the Barn is his fourth book about the lure of collector vehicle archaeology. The Cobra in the Barn, winner of a 2006 International Automotive Media Award, was the first and was followed by The Hemi in the Barn and The Vincent in the Barn. Cotter most recently authored the biography of car builder extraordinaire Dean Jeffries. Tom has been in and around cars and bikes all of his life. He built one of the most successful PR agencies in motorsports, with a client list ranging from NASCAR to the SPEED Channel. Cotter lives in Davidson, North Carolina.
