Big time barn finds

[Davemk1]

My Dad sent me this link. I don't know anything else about is but I can tell you it was some barn find deal in Europe.

 

A good number of Lotus in there.

 

Unbelievable.

Edit -

 

I just got the below from my Dad in another email that explains it a bit more. Sounds a bit urban legend like but who knows. Cool cars any way you slice it.

 

 

 

A man retired. He wanted to use his retirement money wisely, so it would

last, and decided to buy a home and a few acres in Portugal. The modest

farmhouse had been vacant for 15 year.; 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 New York 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.

 

What was in the barn...............?

Go to;    WWW.intuh.net/barnfinds/afa70.htm http://WWW.intuh.net/barnfinds/afa70.htm>    and start wishing you had

bought the place.

 

When the picture comes up, click next to see all the cool stuff he

unknowingly purchased.

 

[And, unfortunately the author of this piece doesn't know American cars

at all, nor is he/she interested.  One of the most valuable finds is the

1931/2 Chrysler Imperial convertible coupe (a Custom Imperial? - or a

LeBaron???).]
