Dont know if this has been posted. But I wonder when we'll stop finding loads of old cars in barns!

Tragic isn't it....having said that it would be nice to find a stash like that. An ex- of mine found a 30's Armstrong Siddeley at the back of an Aunts garage when they came to clear her house - everyone thought she'd flogged it years before when her husband died!

Weirdly, the auctioneer who found them is an old schoolfriend of mine. I must look him up!
