    This turns me green with envy



    "The story behind the pictures: a property on the outskirts of Lisbon, Portugal, which belonged to a former dealer of vehicles was sold after his death, and what drew the attention of the buyer was a barn that had the doors sealed by welding. So that was open, showed a real treasure - dozens of cars, acquired by the former owner to compose your personal collection. Under the dust accumulated for years, rarities of European and U.S. automotive industries, such as Porsche, BMW, Mercedes, Alfa-Romeo, Lotus, among others. Some very damaged, but others in conservation status impeccable." One guy commented on youtube, this is the story i heard as well.

    While had it been me who had opened the door my first reaction might have been which of these really have no collector-ship value and which ones do also which ones can I use to turn the quickest profit so I can afford to keep the ones I like.
    My second reaction might be holey molley quick call Schotchby's or Barrett Jackson or someone I've hit the mother load.
    My third reaction would have been quick weld the door shut again before anyone knows these are in here.
    Never try to tell me it can't be done
