It's an old wives tale that's this time is true!
What a shame -
My Mother saves old light bulbs because she doesn't want the garbage man tossing them in the back of the truck and thinking she had a bomb in there.
Why couldn't she have saved cars in the yard instead??

I recall these cars being shown on the 'Cars in Barns' website a few years ago. An old Chev dealer that just parked things on that property that didn't sell, including some new cars that were leftovers.
Pretty sad really. All that scrap metal going to China, just so we can have more crap in Wal-Mart!
