Looks like the Barndoor rescue I read about on here somewhere. Found in a campground in Greece? Somebody has to know what I'm talking about.


Yup.. A British guy drove and took ferries to Greece and rescued it. He had a thread in the Barndoor forum. He made it back home to England with it. I haven't seen any updates on it since.
