And inside are over 180 antique vehicles. Some as old as the 20s. Covered with a severe layer of dust, and in various states of repair. This Porsche 356 is considered by speculating web surfers to be the most expensive find in the lot. This American car from the 20s should fetch a decent price too. A few of the cars are more recent, 70s vintage... apparently the battery is still good on that Alfa, with its brake light on. Complete slideshow here. rkzenrage Tuesday Feb 20 02:53 PM *spoooge* xoxoxoBruce Tuesday Feb 20 02:53 PM Ha, I was just going to send you this item. You found a better source though, where I found it they said the "barn" was supposedly hidden in the woods and only inside pictures. Undertoad Tuesday Feb 20 02:56 PM Ah yes, so it is... xoxoxoBruce Tuesday Feb 20 03:19 PM Yeah, I wondered if they were hot. That would be a story if some guy had been stealing and stashing cars for 50 years. Sheldonrs Tuesday Feb 20 04:49 PM See what happens when you forget where you parked? Elspode Tuesday Feb 20 05:44 PM Doesn't look to me like anyone has been in there in 30 years or more. Even in pieces, those babies are going to bring someone a frigging *fortune*. lumberjim Tuesday Feb 20 07:02 PM open the link to the slide show. you can have one car. which one do you pick? Cloud Tuesday Feb 20 07:03 PM any dead bodies in those cars? Undertoad Tuesday Feb 20 07:27 PM You know what, I'll take the old Mercedes in the last pic up there. Not only will it be a total tank, it'll probably start and drive right off without even having to be dusted. Spexxvet Tuesday Feb 20 07:56 PM Quote:

I like the headlight buckets. lumberjim Thursday Feb 22 01:11 AM christ. they made that thing for a long ass time. '48 thru '76? i'd never ever heard of one. tauRus, shure......is this a euro name for something we know by a different name stateside? BrianR Thursday Feb 22 08:25 PM I would pick about five to restore and sell the rest. They all appear restoreable but I bet it'll be tough to find parts for many of those lesser known makes. xoxoxoBruce Thursday Feb 22 10:53 PM Welcome to the Cellar, gmcjeep.

Flint Wednesday Jun 24 01:03 PM Nice bump. Google search for "snopes car barn" turns up this and links to this partial inventory of the cars. classicman Wednesday Jun 24 01:05 PM Thanks, I happened upon it looking to post a pic I took today - completely unrelated as it turns out.
