Gents Barn featured in the new Girls & Legendary US-Cars Calendar

8. September 2019 By Torben

We are very pleased that since last week the beautiful, all-new Girls & Legendary US-Cars Calendar 2020 by Carlos Kella has been published – with our Chrysler Town & Country being considered three times! For the year 2020 there are 53 beautiful motives of great US classic cars, pin-up girls in the style of the respective car and three fantastic photos of our 1950s Chrysler Woodie Coupe. Many thanks to Carlos & his team as well as Sway Books for this nice release! You can order the calendar right here on the Sway Books website – have fun by enjoying great US classics each week in 2020!

Where is the end of the trailer…?

20. August 2019 By Torben

Our move is now slowly over, but somehow not the trailer-life. Almost three months ago we started moving our office and private facility and soon we can finally greet you at another location… we are so looking forward to it! But until then we’re still on the road – sometimes without really seeing the end of the trailer at the back, or rather the end of the classic car on top … Our Woodie weighs a stately 2,3t and is almost 5,70m long, quite a challenge for a few trailers out there and some towing vehicles, nearing their limits. Thankfully, Gents Barn is always focused on safety, so we always double check everything before we set off and cover more than 550km to our new home. So far without major problems – keep your fingers crossed that it stays that way … Ahoy and see you soon, your Gents Barn team!

Umzug Tarz Speedster Gents Barn

On the last day of May, we said goodbye to the beautiful Möhler Castle and are now moving our complete furniture and inventory until the end of August (with keel and without). At the end of August there will be the last big step with five large lorries filling up and driving up north. A great new place with lots of opportunities, to experience a beautiful new landscape and to get in contact with many new customers. We are looking forward to it! Stay true to us and see you soon! Your Gents Barn-Team PS: And if you see us from time to time on the German highway with a nice vintage car on the trailer – then just wave at us! 🙂

Our Woodie – now a star in the US as well!

6. May 2019 By Torben

Chrysler Woodie

With the title “Double Woodie time in Germany,” our beautiful Chrysler Town & Country 2-door Newport Coupe (yes, that’s actually the official name of this vehicle in 1950!) was featured in the latest issue of the American Woodie Club (NWC) magazine – the NWC being the largest club for all wood-paneled vintage cars in the United States and worldwide. Of course we were extremely happy about this great article and the feedback from the club members was very positive. Many thanks to the editors of the NWC magazine and greetings across the great pond. Let’s hope for more Woodie friends here in Europe. The team of Gents Barn likes to work on this beautiful goal for sure!

Gar Wood Speedster in the spot light

20. February 2019 By Torben

Gar Wood Speedster Miss Persia 1936
Gar Wood Speedster Miss Persia

After more than 16 months of restoration and reconstruction, our legendary Gar Wood Speedster “Miss Persia” was once again a gem at a boat show, this time the 50th edition of Boot Düsseldorf, the world’s largest trade fair for boats and water sports. Almost 83 years after our Speedster was Gar Wood’s show boat at North America’s premier trade show of the Thirties, the Chicago Boat Show of 1936, we can once again presented the new hull and beautiful deck structure – along with some of the original chrome attachments – to the more than interested crowd. A true jewel and a shining example of a 100% faithful reconstruction and restoration. Thanks for visiting us and our trusted shipyard!

It’s been a real pleasure opening the mail today!

What a nice way of celebrating the first advent. Have a joyful pre-Christmas time everyone.
