Cars in Barns

http://www.hesselmann-foto.de/frame1.htm On the left menu, click on sleeping beauties

I found the name of the photographer from getting the book, "Cars in Barns"... some of the pics are in that book, along with the story of how the photographer found this storage barn with millions of dollars of rare / priceless unknown cars like the Cord 812, Bugatti's, etc

Similar to the "Sleeping Beauties" the look of these junkyard cars in Switzerland is so amazing they were left alone to be a tourist attraction


The yard was started as a auto recycler/junkyard by Walter Messerli in 1933. Fast forward to 1975, Franz Messerli (his son) took over. The son tried to carry on the business selling parts. Then tried to make money as a museum. Basically the business went under and now the grounds are to be emptied and cleaned up.









The above is a turn signal semaphore
