Portugese Barn Find
 
This started out as one of those "Too strange to be true" stories that I received via email. Turns out that it was an urban myth, but still cool.

The story as I received it told about a guy from New York who bought some land in Portugal. On this land was a huge barn that had been welded shut. Supposedly no one bothered to look in the barn before they sold it. When the new owner cut open the doors, he found a treasure trove of cool old cars.

Pretty damn cool. I read the Snopes article on it, and it sounds like they knew something was in there, but not that everything was full. :)

I love crazy stories like that. Hidden treasures...true or not it is an interesting read. Thanks for sharing.
