Title: Barn treasure yields many VINTAGE CARS
Post by: jcassity on September 07, 2007, 12:24:29 AM
Barn Treasure ..... Drool over this one!!

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 had
both 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.

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

Go to http://www.intuh.net/barnfinds/afa70.htm  and start wishing you had bought
the place!!

HINT: just click on "Index" and see it all at once.  Click on any picture to
