Story is quite amazing. A car has been found in a barn cose to Hradec Kralove (Königgratz), old Mercedes 320B. The founder planned to repair the car and have a nice veteran, but when he started the repairs, he noticed that the right-hand part of the car, esp. the rear, was extensively repaired already somewhere in the past and he recalled the Heydrich assassination - comparison with the photographs from the site of the attack show, that these old repairs are exactly matching the damage from the bomb blast. Experts from Military Historical Institut confirmed that and they will send the car to police forensic experts. The founder and owner of the car is of course delighted and already said that he will donate the car to the military museum.

Apparently the car was confiscated in 1945, then served with police for some time, then it was stored in army reserves, then most likely sold or something as it was again in the evidence in early 1960s and then the owner left it to rust in the barn, or so it seems.
