Nakita Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Cross posted from another forum.A New York 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 years.; 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...............?http://s45.photobucket.com/albums/f88/CulV...nt=4610d955.pbwWHOA DOGGY!!!ALL VALUED UP AT $35 MILLION DOLLARS!!!THIS IS A TRUE STORY THE MAN AND HIS WIFE HAD FULL CLAIM TO THE LOTTHEY HAD A GREAT RETIREMENT!Discuss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Russell Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Not a true story: http://www.snopes.com/photos/automobiles/barnfind.aspBasically, the pics are real, but the story isn't. It is just a collection of old cars in a barn in Portugal, no "secret find". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
