This solution is only for those people that have had this achievement glitch on them and it not unlock when expected.
There was a solution on this site detailing these steps, but it has been deleted, thankfully I had read it after I experienced the glitch and was able to remember the steps.
I am re-posting a version so it can help other people in the future as it helped me.
I personally left this as the final achievement in case it went wrong, but that is not required as you can retain your existing cloud based save and continue where you left off so no progress is lost
I would suggest allowing yourself a couple of hours all in and doing it in 1 sitting
1. You will need to start a new offline game and delete the existing console save.
First go offline: All Settings, Network Settings, Go Offline
Now delete your console based Save: the long way is to go to All Settings, System, Storage, Manage Storage, select FH3 and press
, Manage Game, Saved Data, Delete All
The quick way is go to FH3 via Games & Apps and repeat the delete steps
2. Remain offline and Start FH3
You will now need to play through the early part of the game until you unlock the second Festival site (makes sense to chose Outback if you can as it's close to the Blizzard Mountain destination point).
Play some events in the new site area until you unlock the first Barn Find Rumour (this happened at the same time as the option to upgrade the second festival site to level 2 opened)
As soon as the rumour appears you can travel to Blizzard Mountain, (you can travel to Blizzard Mountain sooner, but there is no benefit if Barn Finds are not unlocked)
complete events and drive on roads on Blizzard Mountain until you get the Barn Find Rumour appear.
At this point you should not have any active championships open as they should still be locked, and you should have more than 40,000 credits in the bank
Locate and activate the Barn Find, watch the full cut-scene and listen the full vocal about restoring afterwards
Immediately travel to the Festival site and pay the 40,000 credits to restore the car instead of waiting
Get into and drive the car from the festival site, at this point no achievement will pop
Reconnect to Xbox Live by using the Guide Button, Settings, Reconnect option, so you stay in the game, and it was now that the achievement then unlocked for me, giving me the full completion
3. Exit FH3 and restore your cloud save
At this point I checked the achievement had registered correctly by refreshing TA, but that's not required, but once I was happy I went back to the dashboard.
Still online, I re-started FH3 and had the option to load my current console save (left) or my previous cloud based save (right), choose the cloud save and you progress will be restored.
It took between 10-15 minutes for it to sync my existing saves, I'm around level 470, fully completed everything and have over 400 cars in the garage, so expect similar.
Once it had finished the sync I checked and it was as I left it the day before starting this, but I now had the achievement, the game completed and a smile on my face.
As always hope this helps and add or check the comments for extras others add

Okay, if anyone has the same issue as I stated in the previous message... unfortunately, you're going to need to delete your cloud save. I did 3 events to trigger the automatic restoration as I was unable to pay for it... then I had to come back online, exit the game completely, go back in and sync the LOCAL save (the one you've just done in this guide) and then go to the Horizon Festival and collect the restored car. This made it pop but obviously I lost my completed save game. Nevermind - uninstalled it anyway now it's 100% haha
Hope this helps someone...

This popped 24 hours later for me.
After following the instructions up to 3, the achievement did not pop. I waited for all of the Forzathon notifications to end, drove around in the Scout/viewed it in the garage/went back and forth between Byron Bay and Blizzard Mountain, played other events, checked the progress tab, check the official club…nothing. I tried most things multiple times and stuck it out for 45-60 minutes before giving up.
I went back offline while still in the game, quit the game, deleted the new local save, reenabled the network, restarted the game, and synced my cloud save. I hoped to see the achievement pop here, but still nothing. I was resigned to having to try again, and probably needing to delete my cloud save entirely, but I couldn’t bear to do it right away.
Almost exactly 24 hours later, I got the notification on my phone that it worked. I can’t believe it.
Thanks for the guide! If it doesn’t pop for you, give it some time before trying again—it eventually might.

As you progress through the King of the Mountain events, you'll unlock an opportunity to find a rare barn find near the top left corner of the map. You should be able to locate the barn just under the main white road that passes through the zone. Once you approach it, it will unveil the International Harvester Scout 800A and be transported to the Festival Hub for repair. You can wait, or go to the hub and pay 40,000 CR to repair it instantly and grab your achievement.
The car is actually pretty good and a lot of fun to drive!

I had the same issue. I'm not sure if it's because I claimed the Scout from the Byron Bay site or because I left before Warren finished his ramble. Either way, I was able to unlock it using the offline save delete. Takes somewhere between 60 and 90 minutes if you go through with it.
1) Close and quit the game.
2) Go to All settings > Network settings and choose go offline.
3) Manage the game and go to saved data, select your save and choose delete from console. (it will still exist in the cloud)
4) Start the game, which will create a new save.
5) Complete enough events to unlock Barn Finds. (Expand Festival + New Festival Site + 2 or 3 races)
6) Find the first Barn Find. (possibly optional, but I found it. I didn't restore it, though)
7) Travel to Blizzard Mountain.
8) Complete enough events to get 10 stars. (possibly optional as well)
9) Drive around the mountain discovering roads until you hear the Barn Find rumor. (I had 42 out of 50 roads discovered)
10) Find it, then travel back to the Blizzard Mountain festival site.
11) Choose to pay to restore the Scout immediately. (Allow Warren to complete his rant prior to leaving the Forzavista screen)
12) Get in the Scout. (Most likely optional, but you're over an hour in at this point so why not)
13) Close and quit the game.
14) Manage the game and delete the save from the console again.
15) Go back into network settings and go back online.
16) Open the game.
The achievement should pop somewhere between opening the game and syncing the cloud save back to the console. Once your game starts syncing, make sure to let it finish. Mine seemed to stick at 99% complete for a few minutes. Do not leave the game screen while it is syncing. Once complete you'll have your original save and the achievement unlocked.

Some people have every other achievement but not this one. Does anyone know exactly what triggers it?

Hey guys,
Here is my video where I will show you the location on the map for where to find the Barn Find and I also drive from the festival to show you exactly where to find this barn find. :)
