When a UK resident was setting up a garden on a recently acquired plot of land, he discovered an old car there that appears to have been manufactured in the 50s. It is possible that it once belonged to members of the secret service, as evidenced by the history of the site, Unilad reports.
In the middle of last year, John Brayshaw moved to Yorkshire. He planned to set up a cozy garden in the grounds of his new home, but when he started tilling the ground, he came across some strange metal object. Obsessed with curiosity John decided to find out what was hidden in the place of his future garden. It turned out that there buried an old rarity car, the age of which obviously exceeded fifty years.
The surprise of the Briton was not limited when he first excavated the roof, then out of the ground appeared rusty door, steering wheel and finally the entire body of the car, which even retained the registration number.
Brayshaw believes that this is most likely a car from the Ford Popular 103e model, which was popular at the time. So far, he has not managed to dig up the find completely, because it is just huge.
The man has no idea how the car could have ended up underground. He tried to find some information through its registration number, but the search was inconclusive.

The previous occupants were also surprised to learn of the strange burial. After inquiring with neighbors, John learned that people in the secret service had once lived in the area. In addition, the color of the vehicle, known as “RAF gray”, indicates that the vehicle belonged to the Royal Air Force of England. Thus, it can be assumed that the owners of the car were agents of the secret services.
The discovered “treasure” will not prevent the man from organizing a garden next to the house. He plans to pull the rare car out of the ground with the help of heavy machinery. Perhaps after that John will find the answers to the many questions related to this place.
