Anybody see these pictures on Cars in Barns yet?

"Wow, can you believe this? Not only one, but two REAL SUPERBIRDS just sitting in a residential area. At the time of this photo, the cars had been sitting in the same spot for over two years! The owner won't sell them, and he won't put them inside. Both of the cars have low miles and are very restorable. Such a shame."

My bird will never sit out like that. I say build a garage first and then buy your dream car.

I'm diggin' the size of the back tires on the green car - it looks tough.

That IS a shame... Looks like he has plenty of land to build a decent shed at the very least or add to the garage.........  :brickwall:

And it doesn't appear to be a derelict sort of property either from what I can see.  Shed building should be within the financial means.

Kinda looks like a shed or building behind the green one in the first pic. Maybe it's full........gotta wonder what's inside that's more important than two superbirds.......

Ghoste

I know where a 1970 Charger RT 440 Six Pack four speed car sits outside because the shed has a tractor in it.  :rotz:

Dave, I dont think its the same green bird. No quarter decals in your pic.

maybe they were pushed outside to complete some garage work or paint another car. it looks like there is a big garage in the pics and the cars dont look to have been "out" too long.
wingless now, but still around.

Yes, but your Birds have not been parked at a motel where the rooms say "No Smoking or Cleaning of Fish" either.  :icon_smile_big:
