    Default Whats in my barn?????

    Dont know if this is a repost, but i got this in an email, and thought i would share..

    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 both had 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 New York 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?

    Imagine what it was like to cut that weld and open that big door expecting to see a bare floor with nothing but a bunch of farming junk, and maybe a tractor or an old work truck. and when you walk slowly around the new found treasures you cant believe what your seeing and you then begin to think 'do these really belong to me, gah i hope nobody can take these away from me!' haha! its so cool!

    also something to think about my uncle owns a garage in NJ and works on a lot of high end cars. He had a customer that had a 308 Ferrari that had sat i his garage for years never moved cranked or anything. My uncle had to replace the entire fuel system, etc. because the fluids had just sat in there and coroded the lines and stuff.
