Sorry, no photo. I just read in Hemmings Blog that a Tucker was found in a barn in Brazil. Apparently it was bought new, and placed in a collection. The owner passed away and the auto was forgotten about till now. It's going to be restored. Pretty cool Doug

One wonders how many more cars, motorbikes and suchlike are hidden in barns round the world.
A great find.

There would be a lot more if it wasn't for WWII. A lot of early classic autos were scrapped because the metal was need for the war effort.

Someday I must dare dig through my garage. As far as I know a car has never entered its hallowed hollows. But one never knows what might turn up in a treasure hunt.

WOW ! What a find ! This reminds me of a documentation I`ve seen on TV some weeks ago: A long time missing Duesenberg discovered by Jay Leno in some LA garage. Mickey, dont dig too deep, otherwise you will discover Australia MIK
