How I found my first oval.....shed was actually pretty clean, and it just sat in the corner. It was half way between Brisbane and Sydney in a small coastal town.

Found November 2014. Finally pulled it out August 2015.

This 54 was wrecked in 1973. The owner pushed it into a corner of a barn/chicken coop on his farm after it was wrecked. That's where it stayed until I stumbled across it.

I can see the bullet holes above the quarter window, how bad is the body cancer?

Hard to believe but this car has zero cancer. Clips are both very straight but there is some damage to the roof from bullet holes.

Weird thing is the bullet holes appear to be caused by someone inside the vehicle shooting out.

Awesome!!! I would love to hear the story on how you found it. I hope you got a killer deal on it as well. It appears that the dirt surrounding the car worked like a preservative of sorts. Very cool find and great pics. Are you planning a body off pan full restore?
