I found a tuba under my Saturn once. Unfortunately, the bell and branches were made out of this flexible plastic junk instead of brass (sheet metal). Lacquer (paint) wouldn't stick and kept peeling. Plus, it was way too small except for quartets. They came out with this Kaisertuba for quintets or sextets, but it hasn't been selling very well.
