Imagine if you bought a plot of land with a barn on it. The barn is sealed shut and when you open it you find this.

Nothing like this would ever happen to me:)

Wow, wouldn't that be a shock. But my first thought would be to wonder if they were stolen, then I would have to return them. That sounds a bit pessimistic doesn't it?
But that was what came to mind as soon as the first picture came up. :confused

Hi Guys,

What if, ( heaven forbid!) You'd bought the plot and had the barn
demolished, before thinking to look inside.:eek:

That'd ruin your breakfast!;)

:eek: No one would be that stupid, would they? Imagine the poor fool who sold the plot without checking the barn, now that was idiotic.

WOW, great link, just selling a lot of those as is to interested collectors and restorers would net you heck of a lot of money. I am real interested to find out about the American 1920's, I have a feeling it may be a Stutz, possibly made in Indianapolis, but maybe not.

If anyone wants another link for a page with thumbnails of all the photos, you can use this one too

Was doing a bit of searching around the net and there is a lot of discussion on this topic but no real story, or positive source of the story and most poeple don't believe the property woudl be sold with a barn the size of an airplane hangar not being checked. One person in particular said something funny about, thinking it was a rather sinister looking scene, imagine they had stumbled upon the hidings of the biggest serial killing ever, people got lost, drove to the farm, drank a cup of poison tea, got thrown in a lake and their car put in the barn [lol]

Also I was wondering, if someone was planning to work on all these and they are broken down or won't start, how much work would it be to get the one at the back out HA HA

If anyone finds a positive news source about this I'd love to read it.
