Random man buys a farm in portugal at an auction.

The farm had this barn behind a bunch of trees that no one ever checked, the padlock was welded shut and when it was opened this is what was found:

P.S. heres another one for the books

Consider the strange story of Alex and Imogene Miller of East Orange, VT.  
They eked out an existence on a small farm. Alex would scrounge rusty nails from burnt buildings  
to repair his roof. He drove a ratty VW Beetle, and when it died, he found another  
even more ratty, and another…the rusting carcasses littered his yard.  
Alex died in 1993, and Imogene died in 1996. The local church took up a collection so they could  
be buried in the churchyard, and the state began the process of taking the farm for taxes.  
That would have been the end of a sad story, except…

I have a sudden urge to take a trip cross country and scour the countryside for abandoned barns.

That is just incredible, i would quit my job right then and sell the cars as i needed money.

Isn’t there like some kind of rule that after a certain amount of time, things (such as auto’s and atv’s) can be re-registered? Im just wondering, cuz im not sure if it is true or not…I just heard it

Yup … if it’s been on your property for an allotted amount of time  
(I can’t remember the exact time, could be 30 days, or 6 months) you can claim ownership.

This stuff happens all the time, although nothing quite this size.

Even the US army “lost” track of a huge bunker in St Thomas for almost 50 years. Locals found it, broke into it, and discovered oodles of weapons and ammunition.

Danner once found a barn in Mississauga (as they were developing north of HWY 7) that had a bunch of muscle cars, parts, trailer, and big drums of race fuel.

Part of the roof had collapsed, burying an early Chevy II, but most of it was salvageable.

Hell, we found a Stingray buried behind our shop, as well as a few old straight axle cars.
