Default Re: Rare '62 found!!

Glad everyone enjoyed my April Fool's joke. Speaking of trees and old cars, I was amazed by this photo a friend sent to me. He bought an old service garage that was in business since the '30s. When he cleaned out the brush around the building he found this. It's a '34 Terraplane that obviously hasn't moved in quite a LONG time.

He has since restored the entire building to use for his own projects and to invite car clubs for cruises, etc. He's leaving the Terraplane just as it is. It's now "part" of the property and it's history... How cool is that???

Verne - sorry to pop your bubble, but that can't be a Z11 cause I don't think they ever came with "three on the tree".
