Whats in the barn??

A New York man retired, wanted to use his retirement money wisely, so it
would last, and decided to buy a home and a few acres inPortugal.

The modest farmhouse had been vacant for 15 yrs.; the owner and wife
both had died, and there were no heirs. The house was sold to pay taxes.

There had been several lookers, but the large barn had steel doors, and
they had been welded shut. Nobody wanted to go to the extra expense to
see what was in the barn, and it wasn't complimentary to the property
anyway......so, nobody made an offer on the place.

The NY guy bought it at just over half of the property's worth, moved
in, and set about to tear in to the barn.......curiosity was killing him.
So, he and his wife bought a generator, and a couple of
grinders.......and cut thru the welds.

Why don't I ever have that kind of luck?

 

You and me both. My dad and brother have been traveling all over Idaho and have found a ton of old iron. My little brother picked up a 1940 dodge pickup with a flatbed for $50. drug it home, steam cleaned it up, added fuel and a battery and IT STARTED!! ALL original, missing the right door panel and the wood was rotted in the bed. Dad said there is not even a ding on the body. Been sittin under a cottonwood tree for 36 years. The guy that owned it told my brother that it was a pile of junk and to make him an offer. Bro said he had a crisp 50 in his wallet and the guy took it.

My brother has that kind of luck Me, I have to work my *** off to get the things I need and he has it laid in his lap. The little D!K head LOL!!

 

I've heard of a few convertible hemicudas being found in french barns. a few of those deals happen over here in the states...just not to often. Heckuva deal if ya ask me. Bet he made his money back on those angle grinders and that generator.

 

thats amazing, i wonder what the total of cars was in there, there all cars that are worth some money now, especially in that kinda shape

 

That is awesome. I couldn't imagine opening a barn that I just bought and finding all of those. Makes you wonder how they were all accumulated though.

 

That one is a joke, read in a euro paper that the cars belong to a collector.

 

i was thinking this find was possible but doubtful.

how could any one have that many cars and no one knew anything about them?
