My phone was dead, so I didn't get any pics of the truck, but I sold it as soon as I got home, so it really doesn't matter anyway. It was a good day other thN standing in the rain for most of it.

 

[Ebrownie]

What was wrong with the truck to get it so cheap?

 

[Flyinhillbilly]

It has been sitting. I didn't ask any questions at that price.

 

[Flyinhillbilly]

The safe. It still has a lock on it, and I can hear something in it that sounds like paper. I'll cut the lock off tomorrow and see what's in it.

I hope you find the Glockman diamond!

 

[Flyinhillbilly]

It sure gets the imagination going. I'm sure looking forward to cracking that sucker open.

Ooooohhh.. Ooohh .. OH... I know this......wait...ummmn...it's...it's.. Oh YEAH!!!! (I remember now!)...

It's only a deadly virus that will wipe out mankind, and that's better known as a "Pandora box".

No problem.

FHB great show of willpower. I woulda busted open that safe within minutes of the auction site.
Me, I'm on a self imposed ban on auctions. Got to many horder genes.

 

[Hellion]

Wait, you bought everything for $291.00?

I need to start attending auctions...

 

[pRoFiT]

Auctions are a horders best friend. I've always wanted to do the storage auctions.

Get a prybar and go at he safe asap! Let's see what's inside

 

[Foreveranoob]

We need to all throw in a guess on what it is be4 he opens it lol probably to late for that tho.

 

[Flyinhillbilly]

It's still locked, and will be until around noon as I go have breakfast with some guys every Sunday morning, and after that I need to do a little laundry.
Hellion, yes, everything for $291. I like to go sell stuff at swap meets, so I look for deals. This was an estate auction on a farm that had the same residents for 40 years.
The safe is kind of like a lottery ticket. I know I have no real chance of winning, but
It's fun to fantasize about what if I did.

 

[Flyinhillbilly]

HOLY SCHIT!!!!!!
I can't even tell you guys what's in it, but I'm blown away.
I know what it is, but I can't say. Very valuable though, very valuable.
I will say that I about stroked out when I opened the lid and saw what was in it after just cutting the lock off with a torch.
I'm a lucky son of a gun. In more ways than one.
