Pretty much.
We've just got the house and it's on a surprisingly large plot for the SF bay area. We were told the guy who lived here previously was into cars, and was a mechanic on jet powered hydroplanes in his spare time. There's an old radiator, a wheel and tire, and some old differential parts in a tumble down shed, but I hadn't ventured down to the bottom of the garden until the other day. There I spotted the two shock towers sticking up out of the grass and decided to take a closer look.
He was into old Fords apparently, so not sure what the story is on this. I'll have to check with the sons. They did tell me they pulled a load of Allison aircraft engine parts out of the basement when they were clearing out - wish they'd left those!
