Post How would you have liked to bought this property ?

Imagine you're going to live in Portugal. You find a
lovely farmhouse set on a decent plot of land. The
place has been empty for 15 years... While exploring
your new property you find a large barn.

The door is padlocked and welded shut and it's all
rusted solid.

So you grind the padlock and the welds off and, BINGO!

Click on the website below and scroll through the
photos to see what is in the barn!

Oh my god, it's gonna cost me a fortune to get this lot cleaned

They actually belong to a car dealer and are still in his barn! Seems the barn find thing is a myth.....shame

It looks like a Pre War Gone in 60 seconds haul which was forgotten about!!!
Still what a shock you would have had opening that door for the first time!
