barn and field finds

GTX

GSX, yup, real one

Z code 63 1/2 Galaxie , that means high performance, and highly desireable

They're still out there, and some are never going to part ways with the nimrod that owns it, and tells every possible buyer "Someday I'll restore it" but will die before he ever touches that car again, meanwhile it rusts so much no one can do anything with it.

But every now and then, the owner has forgotten the car was even hanging around because it faded into the background of the family farm

1929 factory race Harley. Not found in a barn, it was found in a mine in Australia

This original and intact, rare Harley-Davidson, was found in the bathroom of an Australian gold mine in the late 1940's. It's a no transmission, 21cu in, 350cc, and had no brakes

A. L. Bicker had heard stories of this machine still in a wooden crate and traced the Harley-Davidson to a mining operation in Western Australia.

It was indeed in the men's room of the mine. Best of all, the machine was a factory racer with overhead valves. Essentially a twenty year old motorcycle at the time, it was not coveted as a rare antique but still a desirable machine to own and use.

Sold for 125,000 in Jan 2011 at the Bonhams auction in Las Vegas
