Got this from a mate off skylines australia, some guy brought a piece of land in Portugal, found a mysterious barn and broke into it. This is what he finds!

Unfreakinbelievable! It would be awesome enough to find just one of those in a barn, but after that auction, he'll never have to work again.

there is all the money he'll ever need in his life right there :glare:

lucky lucky bastard :(

cars stolen mid century perhaps?

long shot id say, but I find it weird that that many exotic old cars could just be 'abandoned'.

Amazing find tho, certainly luckier than any lotto winner lol

Ages ago I heard that it was a deceased estate, an old guy lived there and sealed up the shed when he started getting sick and he died and it was an empty property for like 20 years

From Article:

The owner of the cars was a car dealer in the 1970s and 1980s, and decided to save the more interesting cars that came through his doors. When the barn was full, he padlocked and "soldered" the doors shut. (Perhaps welding was too permanent.)[/b]

He didnt steal them, he just bought them from the owners and keep them instead of selling them...

Anyways, thats a goldmine there, man, wish I was him!
Would be great to try and find out where they all came from, especially the pre-war cars... Interesting to know who owned them and everything.

He is going to have one hell of a polishing job!
