Anybody want to own a genuine TV repair shop?

Well, although I remain skeptical about the possibility of more of those 300 roundie color sets coming to the surface, I have to admit that not only strange, but really bizarre stuff do happen. Some years ago, in a small town in the state in which I live, a guy found a brand new, never used 1920's Ford automobile resting completely desassembled in a farm. I don't remember if it was a Model T or a Model A. The story is pathetic: since 1919 all Ford's were imported to Brazil as CKD's ( Completely Knocked Down kits ) and assembled at a local Ford plant. This farmer thought that he could save money by buying the CKD and finding someone in his area to do the assembling, or maybe even doing it himself. Fact is, there was no one nearby able to do it, and so the car spent more than 70 years unused. If only I knew this family was so silly: I was told that they exchanged this ultra-rare find for an air conditioner for their house!

And in 1985 a similar thing happened: in a warehouse in a port people found a 1955 "Oval Window" VW Beetle that was also never used! Someone imported the car in 55 but didn't had the money to pay the import tax. So it spent three decades resting, until it was discovered.
