Gardener is left stunned after digging up an ENTIRE 1950s Ford Popular car that had been buried underneath his lawn
A gardener has made an incredible discovery after finding a car buried in his garden.
John
Brayshaw, 40, was passing time in the garden at his home in
Heckmondwike, West Yorkshire before stumbling across what appeared to be
a Ford Popular.
Having bought the
house six months ago, John was digging post panels to start decking his
garden when he found the car, which was buried on its side in a 7ft by
10ft hole.
'It's not something you find every day -
it is literally in the middle of my garden. It's just weird how it's
down there.' he said.
'I'd love to be able to get the car out, but I don't think it is possible by hand.'
Mr
Brayshaw is now keen for people to get into contact with him on how the
1950's vehicle bizarrely ended up buried within the lawn in the centre
of his garden.
The grey car although largely broken up does still have its engine and registration plate accompanying it.
Early thoughts are the car is thought to be a military vehicle.
'I've
been told that at the end of world war two there was an influx of
people that used to work for the Secret Service,' John added.
'I thought it was an old air raid shelter at first, then I saw the roof and I thought 'who'd bury the roof of a car?'
'Then I kept digging at saw the door, the steering wheel and realised it was a full car complete with the registration plate.
'The only thing that was missing was the wheels.'
