This is exactly what I am trying to get into here in this state - except it's outdoors and includes all kinds of cars from the 20's to the 70's. It's like the cars I saw today. '66 or so Newport that outside of dirty and a couple nickle-sized rot holes, looks like new. Not registered in almost as long as I have been alive, stored in a barn. '70 or so Valiant behind it, also solid. I didn't see it but the same guy has a Model T that they've had since ... he was afraid to admit how long, probably since the 50's. If you have the space, it doesn't cost much to store an old car... wouldn't surprise me to see lots more examples like this turn up. I never would have guessed what this guy has either, it looks like a collection of 80's junkers outside the barn.
