Capri Barn Find - not really but I can dream!

This has nothing to do with Capris but here is the greatest barn find of all times.
 
Have a look at this site:
http://www.vanderbrinkauctions.com
 
It details the sale of a collection of some brand new vehicles from the 1960s which have been stored in the Lambrecht Chevrolet Company in Pierce, Nebraska. The company shut its doors some 17 years ago and the building has not been touched. Some of the vehicles have less than 5 miles on them & one ute has just 1 mile on it. They even have the original plastic covers on the seats.
 
When you are in the site, click on the video down on the right hand side & it shows how the garage was and the removal of some of the vehicles.
 
Does anyone know of a secret stash of Capris here in Australia?

    Well they are still out there, a guy sent me an e-mail the other day looking for some bits for a V6 capri he had been offered at (what is by todays standard) a bargain price.  Car has been in a shed for years but still runs, needs a bit of a tidy but all there good to go.  Turns out to be one of the 11 Stillwell 165 HP cars, Wild Plum no less
