Barn Find 1939 19′ Barrel Back. It Was Just Sitting There In The Barn!

Its all there, and you are just sitting there.. GO!

For many in the hobby, pasion, sport, lifestyle of classic boating, a Barrel Back is the icon of  all classic boats. And a 19 footer is the mother load. Of course since that has been the case, all of them have been restored once or in some cases twice. This barn find Barrelback is all original…owned by this second owner since 1958 and has been in dry storage for the last 55 years! Bugatti windshield and all hardware including spotlight!  The owner started to strip this one down to refinish and .. well.. stopped. And it sat, and sat, and sat.. So now, thanks to the good folks at Antique Boat America, CLICK HERE it can sit at your place, then you can refinish it, and it can sit on a new trailer, so you can take it to your home or show, and it can sit in its slip in the water. Then, finaly you can sit in it and drive the living jesus out of it, like it was meant to do. So just don’t sit there, start clicking and pull out that wallet you are….. sitting on… and go get your self a barn Find Barrel back!

Just turn the key… OK nothing will happen, you will need a non barn find battery … And some non barn find gas..

Just put on that Bugatti windshield and you are ready to go… to a clean room and apply some varnish first please.

    Well folks, I made the long trip to New York and purchased this boat a little over a year ago. You wouldn’t believe the transformation! I have 600 pics of the restoration process on my Facebook page. Thanks, Ryan O’Reilly
