 The 2 Harleys look like a shovelhead and a blockhead. Those would be nice to get them and the other Fastback Stang.

Amazed they found a SBF tunnel port head as well. Pretty rare and one wonders if the owner actually ran a 289 with them.

They act like it's finders keepers. Doesn't work like that. Remember that Chevy wild cherry van found abandoned in the desert?

Yes, I wondered the same thing. If they merely trespassed and yank the car and parts, they could end up in very hot water if a legal claimant to the property, hence the car, shows up. Jail time might be in order.

Whole thing may be fake news. Owner looking to be internet viral. Certainly I would never publicize it.

Yea, no car is "fair game".  Do what you like but when the title holder shows up with the sheriff things change quickly.  Been there, seen that happen.  Could try for a bonded title, maybe.

That would seem like one of those "finds of a lifetime" - excellent.  Would also love to see more detail pics when time allows.  It's the stuff you only read about in books.

Wow. amazing. And besides the parts and 3 Mustangs , even the Grand National, F350 and the boat are worth lots. I am curious who owned it and where he went? If vandals broke in how is all that stuff still laying upstairs? Unless non human vandals?    And this comment on the link... "Paul MasonJan 22

Could be the owner was drafted and killed in Nam and the fam just left it where it was as to not remind or they chose to have a keepsake of their son. I knew of a gentleman in Pennsylvania that lost his son there and kept of all things his son's Mustang as his keep sake. Kept it covered in the garage and never drove it and it looked brand new......"
  Ummm , yeah, and bought a acouple late 80's vehicles before 'Nam....
