Hey! What's Under the Tarp?...

[Brock Samson]

  While out and about the last couple of weeks I found a couple interesting lumps under tarps in a couple of garages...  
Looking at the first pics of each see if you can figgure out what they might be...  

[Brock Samson]

  I'm wondering if you can tell from the classic shape...
and if i should go ahead and post the rest of the pics?..

Now here's the one from the other garage... I didn't think to take a pic of it covered but... try to guess the year since the make wont be any problem for you seasoned hacks... ooops,..  i mean mechanics...

the woman storeing it till her 15 year old only granddaughter gets it,...  how ya' gonna argue with that...
says it's been in this condition for 20 some odd years... to me it looks like everything is there and done, simply needing re-assembly... I would bet that car could be cleaned up and on the road in under a week. she didn't know what it was worth,..  just knew it was a good one... I'm scared to look it up...

Those first generation T-Birds are nice. That one looks like it's in great original shape! I love the cars from the 50's. Here's mine.
