43 years in a barn, but it had one hell of a racing career before hibernation
Mike Bamber's old "Silver Dollar" A/GS 1940 Willysthe engine was being rebuilt in it, to make a few passes on the Nostalgia circuit, when a guy teaching his daughter to drive plowed into the barn, missed the Willys, but hit the engine stand and knocked the engine over - cracking the blower case. Lucky that no one was hurt, and that the truck was missed completely

Can anyone help Laurie with information about this barnfind 1933 Tempo Wagen type T-10?
Hello and thank-you for taking the time to read this. I am sending this out to anyone I think might be able to help me with some knowledge of this vehicle. I am asking for any information at all.
There is nothing on the internet at all that I can find. I would like information about it's history, rarity, value, and any help on who might be interested in this vehicle, though, technically it's a motorcycle, or if not that, then perhaps a lead as to who else I could try to contact.
It's owner, Bob, lives down the road and I've always admired all the neat junk he's had out over the 20 or so years I've lived here. I met him last week and just that quick he has decided that he wants me to help him get rid of it.
You see, his wife of 54 years has very recently passed away. They were both avid collectors, but now he just wants to move south to be with family.
The vehicle is a 1933 Tempo-Wagen I can tell you it works, everything is there, there's even the windsheild in perfect shape. The steering wheel is just raw exposed 4" peices of wood wired together. And if you can't tell, it's a two seater. The cushion for the first seat is completely deteriorated. The other one is in decent shape and says Bruninghaus.
I asked my husband if it was a basket case and he laughed and said ,"heck no, this is an easy fix!!!!." The paint seems to be original.
So I'm thanking you for taking the time to read this. I hope I haven't overextended myself and anxiously await a reply from you. Please do get back to me so I am assured that you even received this and so I'll know if I have to keep looking for more people to try to contact. http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/album.php?aid=4690&id=100001776133463 here's pics and paperwork
Thank You, and have a nice day,Laurie Everett

barn find duece


This 1932 Ford coupe was bought in 1951 and parked in this garage in 1959. The owner, now 77 years old (so he was born exactly in 1932, looks at coincidence) gave up trying to restore the car one day and decided - thankfully - sell it. That was the first person to come in this garage since 1959, exactly 50 years later.
Check out Nik's blog for the whole story, and lots of other cool car stuff! http://carrosantigos.wordpress.com/2009/03/15/mais-um-deuce-coupe-50-anos-depois/
