Jackpot!

A recently retired New York man wanted to use his retirement funds wisely, decided to buy a home and a few acres of land in Portugal .

The modest farmhouse had been vacant for 15 years; the owner and wife both had died, and there were no heirs.

The estate was being sold to pay back taxes. There had been several lookers, but the large barn had steel doors, and they had been welded shut. No one wanted to go to the extra expense to see what was in the barn, and it does not compliment the property anyway... so, no one made an offer on the place.

The New York gentleman bought it as is, paying just over half of the property ' s worth; moved in, and set about to access the barn... curiosity was killing him.

Therefore, he and his wife bought a generator and a couple of grinders. In addition, cut thru the welds.

What was in the barn...?

The Barn

The doors were welded shut, but a grinder took care of that.

A warehouse full of vintage high performance cars!
