    Off the top of my head I can only think of Shaunessey in Oceanside,CA
    and Sheehan in Costa Mesa. I don't know what Ferrari he barn-found but Tillack found an Abarth Carrera in Sweden. Who are the other great barn-finders from UK, France, Germany,etc.

    Incidentally I once met a guy from some State in "flyover" country that told me of a visit by Sheehan to their State. The Ferrari people came from far and wide to show him their cars and he obligingly bought a few. Kind of reminds me of the cargo cults in new Guinea where after the war natives continued to build faux airports,hoping those nice Americans would come back with those Dakota full of cargo...

    One should keep in mind that very few of these cars are not already known by the professional seekers. The secret is timing and being able to financially pry the car out of the owners hands.
    I once found an old Ferrari many years ago in Montana. Or at least at the time I thought I had "found" it. My last offer was so freaking far over the top it wasn't even funny. The car sold a few years later for.....well way over any rational offer at the time.
