Luckiest man in the world... EVER! (Warning lots of photos!)

Borrowed this from another forum...

ok, so imagine you live in portugal and your moving house. you find a lovely farm house set in a decent plot of land. the place has been empty for 15 years!

whilst exploring your new property you find a large barn in the trees. the door is padlocked shut and its all rusted solid. so you grind the padlock open.........

and this is what you find inside......

[Zed2k]

I wonder if someone rented the barn off the previous owner or not.

 

[Dale]

15 years old too... I wonder how long he has to wait till they are legally his? Or as he purchased the property, are all its contents now his too?

very good question!

 

[Peach]

That's amazing! I'd give up work and restore them all, and sell them at auction - they'd fetch an absolute fortune!

Think of all the polishing I could do - heaven, absolute heaven

 

[Bantambunny]

Lucky barstool! I'd give up the rest of my life to restoring them all and selling a select few.

 

[DJZ 60]

The original Collector had the foresight to put away a Z...What doe'z that
tell u'z???? He had great taste in car'z! Pity the poor bloke left everything
as is....Murdered?, jailed? kidnapped? or is he that bloke selling the
dodgy,reject wheel'z & making a fortune & is on the run & in hiding?

There'z a thought! DJZ 60.

 

[Wyn]

Would luv to find a barn like that

 

[twoforty]

Barn? looks more like an aircraft hanger!!! hidden in trees? Hmmmmm

 

[SeanDezart]

You mean he bought the place WITHOUT inspecting all of it ? THAT is lucky - it could have held a toxic waste dump !

 

[DJZ 60]

Yeah...I never thought of that! ToxZic waste. & The bloke
buying a place,just cause he liked the front gate! Maybe he would have changed his mind if he knew what he was buying!
The poor barsteward! DJZ 60.

Are they on sorn?

 

[twoforty]
