    The story of an old Barn in Portugal
    A New York man retired.  He wanted to use his retirement money wisely, and decided to buy a home and a few acres in Portugal.  The modest farm house had been vacant for 15 years.  The owner and his 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 that were 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 had made an offer on the place.
    The New York guy bought it at just 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 heavy duty grinders and cut through the welds.
    What was in the barn?
    Classic cars, specialty cars, Mercedes, Lotus, Astin Martin, Porsche, Volvo, Austin Healy,
    Alfa Giulietta, BMW, Formula Racers, Chryslers, Mercedes, Austin A30, Alfa Romeo

      Η ιστορία ενός άλλου Νεοϋορκέζου που ήρθε να κάνει το ίδιο στην Ελλάδα:
      - Το ζευγάρι που είχε την αποθήκη είχε εξαφανιστεί…
      - 15 χρόνια μετά ανοίγουν την αποθήκη και ανακαλύπτουν ότι η αντικειμενική της αξία ήταν τουλάχιστον 500 φορές λιγότερο από όσα έδωσε.
      - Μέσα στην αποθήκη είχε και 2 αυτοκίνητα που οι εξαφανισμένοι ιδιοκτήτες είχαν πάρει μεταχειρισμένα αλλά δεν πλήρωσαν ποτέ. Στο Νεοϋορκέζο ανατέθηκε έπειτα από δικαστήριο το χρέος και η εξόφληση των αυτοκινήτων…
      - Δυστυχώς δεν υπάρχουν φωτογραφίες, η σύνταξη δεν φτάνει ούτε για όλα τα παραπάνω, που να βρει φωτογραφική μηχανή…
