What's up all...been out of the loop a bit this summer so I figured I would throw something out there.
My dad and his best friend, always on the trail of interesting cars buried in old garages, uncovered a schwimmwagen owned by a little old lady out east. Not sure how many of these are known, but this one has been under wraps for a long time so its probably a new discovery. Here's some crappy phone pics, my pop said he couldn't get any full views since the garage was so small. They give a mysterious flair to the whole thing... And no, IT IS NOT FOR SALE.

Holy Crap! I want one! There was an article in Excellence about these awhile back. Very cool.

yeah i guess there are only 133 known in the world and i checked the registry...this one ain't on there.
I am trying to convince my dad's buddy (who has deep pockets) to try and buy it but this old lady doesn't want to sell. |

Old ladies die sooner or later. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Any idea what something like this would sell for? What kind of shape is it in? It's a little hard to tell from the pics (did you have Andy taking them for you???)
