Making the rounds, apparently, and noticed by Zippyt.

The original circulating text, with errors, goes:

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.

*spoooge*

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.
I know a guy in NJ that has a similar "barn", but it's mostly Corvettes and Hot Rods in different stages of completion.
That's the reflector showing the flash, on the Alfa.;)

Ah yes, so it is...

They said some of the cars were parted out, and so the speculation was that they were stolen. But most of them don't look like they're missing pieces, so there might be another story to it all.

Yeah, I wondered if they were hot. That would be a story if some guy had been stealing and stashing cars for 50 years. :D

See what happens when you forget where you parked?

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*.

I seem to recall that there were one or more Lotus Super 7's in that lot somewhere when I read about it.

open the link to the slide show. you can have one car. which one do you pick?

any dead bodies in those cars?

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.

I don't think you go stealing formula one cars.

I can't decide between the Mg Magnette, the Nash, or the yellow Lotus

I dunno, they look old and dusty...and I'll bet there's not a cupholder in the bunch.

thats just the flash reflecting in the brake light lens.

I've all ways been a Porche fan , but those MG's are looking mibhty fine as well
