My uncle's barn find tip about checking junk mail actually worked

He said look for old registration renewal notices in the mailbox, found a '72 Datsun 240Z that way behind a chicken coop in Ohio. Anyone else got weird methods that panned out?

Wait, wasn't the 240Z introduced in 1969, not '72?

My buddy tried the "look for old car covers under houses" method after reading something online. He was checking out this abandoned property in rural Indiana and lifted up this super old, moldy tarp. Underneath was a complete 1967 Mustang fastback with the original 289 and a 4-speed. The guy selling the property just wanted it gone, said it had been sitting there since the 80s. He got it for like 800 bucks and spent two years fixing it up, now it's his daily driver.
