He could probablly buy portugal now.
That is so insane. I bet the people who sold him the land shit their pants.
I can't imagine someone even doing something like that. I mean, maybe they were collecting cars, then they kept running out of room so they would move them closer and closer? Or maybe the guy was some drug lord???
Either way, simply amazing.
I was just gonna post "Holy fuckin shit" at work, but the suprise has worn down a little.

He now owns the biggest collection of rusty gas tanks!
Either way, this is the stuff that we dream about. Stuff like this happens only once in a lifetime.
I think this happend to someone else up north and it was full of muscle cars and domestic stuff. I think the story on that was the old lady was about to die and she told about how her late husband had a few old cars out in the barn and it was packed full of classics.

These stories have been circulating for years (at least the 30 or so I've been in). They go along with the Corvette that the old man died in and couldn't get rid of the stink. Or the "old Chevy out back" that the little old lady sold for $___ (you fill in the lowball number) that turned out to be a classic Corvette. A lot of them had the "old lady" in the story
Nice to see pics of an actual instance. I have seen some of these over the years but nothing as grand as that. Old Vega that was actually a Cosworth Vega. A junker bug that turned out to be a split window european. Things like that.

Oh, and again, OMFG to those pics of those cars, OMFG!

I think that barn was a chop shop back in the day. Some of the pics showed cars with missing lights and damaged trunks. Also a classic car collector would never park cars that close to each other. Everytime you see a car collectors storage, the cars are spaced far away from each other so that you can walk around the cars and admire thier beauty. These cars looked like they were stashed there. It would be messed up if the government investigates and finds that all these cars are stolen and confiscates them.

I actually was thinking almost the same thing. Most of them have plates attached and a few interior shots show wiring hanging. The condition of a few of them is also pretty rough. Whoever "collected" these cars was not planning on keeping them in good shape.

You can say that again! (Or can you?) :order
Just imagine forty years from now. Some guy's going to finally getting around to cleaning out that creepy old garage out on the south forty. He's going to pry open the doors and peek inside. And, instead of vintage 356 Speedsters, Elans, and Alfas, he's going to find thirty Civis and Accords - some with fatty park bench wings, some without, but ALL with Altezzas and fart cannons.
Then he's gonna die laughing because, really... why?

Makes me want to buy a chunk of land in the middle of nowhere up in ME or VT and build a huge garage on it. Then I'll fill it with DSM's. :P

Johnny Tran will pop out and ask where his spoon engines are and cover them in oil.
