Andrew, I'd love to check it out, but everytime I click on it all that appears is a message.

(The specified server could not be found).

Thanks for thinking of me though.

WOW! Talk about finding the automotive version of "King Tuts Tomb". Well, maybe not that great of a find, but certainly a significant find of some very unusual cars.
Even though I didn't notice much there I'd want to own, there were some pretty interesting Alfa's, a few Lotus cars, and that white 240 Z that caught my eye.
All cleaned up and restored, I wonder what that total collection would be worth? Even more interesting, would be finding out the story behind the whole collection.
Can anybody read Portuguese?

I can't read Portuguese, but I sure would like to take the grand tour in that place. I think that is every car lovers dream to stumble across something like that. I wouldn't be surprised that, if he is still around, who ever put them there knows a little story about each one of them. I'm also thinking it would take Andrew the better part of a day to bring them all back to their original luster. It must be torture for him to see so many dirty cars.

Not really a barn, but an under ground depot. I tried finding a way of asking the guy where this find is, but could not find a way to ask. It's in Portugal as appose to Brazil, but would be nice to know the background or story behind the pictures.
