    When you find a 72 T in a Coca Cola bottling plant

    Not a barn find. A bottling plant find... plus a tractor trailer load of parts. Car was parked 20 years ago.
    I will restore to new . Hope you enjoy. Tate

    That car doesn't need to be restored, just clean it up and put it back together.

    The effects of sunshine; common occurrence in the desert. I suspect that car has been sitting next to that window for a very long time.

    Amazing find. With it sitting in front of that window there must have been other attempts to buy it in the past. Did the owner just pass on or something? I'd love to hear the story of how you got it.

    There used to be a 1952 Alfa Disco Volante coupe that sat for years in the late 70s and 80s in an old abandoned 1930s car dealership in Jamestown, RI. It was one of three, I believe, that was built by Touring for Alfa. A very rare car. It sat all by itself in the back of the shop, covered in dust. I tried a couple times to find out who owned it, and if it was for sale, but never got anywhere.

    This is a perfect candidate for restoration. There's nothing left to preserve
