    I've heard for years about a 1927 Chrysler Beach Wagon being tucked away in an old barn in historic down town Leesburg, Virginia about 10 miles from where I live. I've passed the barn in question many many times and on occasion, wondered if it were the barn mentioned in the rumors. But, I always had my doubts about it being anything special. After all, whats a Beach Wagon? I assumed it was a vintage Chrysler that someone butchered, but I ran across these videos on Youtube explaining it all.
    The first explains its history, and shows it being removed from the barn. The second show snap shots of the on going restoration.
