Tom Cotter, the host of Hagerty's Barn Find Hunter (@Hagerty), met up with Kim - the oldest sister - to peruse the incredible collection and discuss the finer details.
Kim's father's childhood friend, Tony, tagged along since he knew a little more about the cars in the collection and why her father chose to collect it.
She also revealed that the barn housed 40 cars, but her father had other cars stored in other parts of the state, totaling to nearly 80 cars.
"[My dad] built [the barn], I want to say, in 2000 when he bought the property," said Kim in the video, after Tom noted the barn was in the middle of nowhere.

"There's 10.2 acres all together."
When the doors were opened and the trio walked into the barn, all three were stunned into silence by the stunning collection of cars.
The first car that was uncovered was a 1986 Chevrolet Camaro that was used as a pace car for the INDY 500.
"This was the only car that was actually mentioned in the will, and it was gifted to my son," Kim said.

There were only 437 miles on the odometer, and aside from being a little dusty on the outside, was in perfect condition.
Kim and her three sisters divided the cars with a lottery system, where each sister got a turn to pick which cars they were going to move forward with.
"We did it that way to give everyone a fair shot," she told Tom.
Also featured was a 1937 La Salle Coupe that was owned by Kim's grandfather, and was incredibly proud of his vehicle.
So proud, that Tony was chased away from the vehicle by him after he'd spent hours cleaning it.
"We lived on a small block, and I used to park this car on the street," Tony said.
"We used to jump on the fender and slide down it... [Kim's grandfather] got it all nice and clean, he was proud of it, and he yelled, 'Don't touch my car, and don't touch my pickup truck,'" said Tony.
Coming from the 1950s, Tom took a great liking to a 1959 Oldsmobile Ninety Eight - since it had a beautiful style for how large it was.
"People don't really make cars anymore, they make SUVs now," said Tom.
"But look at the size of this and attention to detail - the chrome trim, the fender, next to this trim - it's like a sculpture."

Kim revealed that the three sisters don't know what's next when it comes to the collection, but they've all been distributed between the three of them.
Nearly 80 cars were divided between them, and now they have to decide what to keep in the family or sell.
