When this car was unearthed in 2014 along with nearly 60 other classics, it was described as the “holy grail of barn finds.” In the early ’60s, this black California Spider (one of 37 made), was owned by French actor and jet-setter Alain Delon. Nearly 50 years later, it was found parked in a debris-filled garage next to a 1956 A6G coupe. In another barn sat a bespoke Talbot-Lago once owned by King Farouk of Egypt, as well as other classics dating back to the 1900s. The Maserati sold for $2.2 million. The Ferrari was sold as is by Artcurial for a whopping $18.5 million.
