在家中的某个隐密的地方发现宝藏或许已经不稀奇,但若是用钱买下一个再普通不过的东西,然后却发现了价值连城的东西,是一件让人多么惊喜的事?一个退休的男子就有了这样超棒的经历。
一个男子用了退休金在葡萄牙买了一个仓库,这个仓库已经空了15年,主人和妻子都过世了,也没有继承人,于是仓库被政府拍卖了,由于这个仓库的门窗都被焊死,当地的人从没想过要打开它,因为打开这个仓库势必要花费不少的金钱和功夫,当然没有人想要做免钱工啦! 在好奇心的驱使下和妻子买了机器打开仓库,想要好好打理这个地方,没想到……发现的超棒东西。 打开仓库之后……有什么?
他简直不敢相信自己的眼睛,里面竟然有大量的汽车,还是大量的珍贵老爷车,包括阿斯顿·马丁(AstonMartins)、梅赛德斯(Mercedes)、莲花(Lotus)等多种品牌车型,价值数百万英镑。每台都完好如缺,只是都附上了厚厚的灰尘,毕竟至少15年没人动过
这些车虽然布满了灰尘,但有些仍然能开上街。
些古董车的总价值大概在3500万美金,这根本就是中乐头了! 这些车的数量少说有几十台,而且都是高档的牌子像是Mercede、Austin、Chrysler、Formula Racer、BMW V8 等等...把这些车擦一擦,就成为男人的天堂了!
男子的发现是不是很惊人呢? 随便一台应该都是价值连城,更何况是这么多呢? 随便把几台拿来修一修就可卖上天价啊! 如果我是这名男子(流口水),我会开一个改车厂,把每一部擦得亮晶晶,天天就泡在工作室里享受被古董名车围绕的感觉....真的太棒了!

But is this story too good to be true?
Online reports suggest the pictures are real - but are simply a car dealer's
collection stored in a barn.
Tom Cotter of Sports Car Market magazine is quoted by Snopes as saying: "
Nobody would simply sell an old farm and fail to mention to the new owners
the stash of old cars in the barn."
Cotter added: "The owner of the cars was a car dealer in the 1970s and 1980s
, and decided to save the more interesting cars that came through his doors.
"When the barn was full, he padlocked and "soldered" the doors shut."

One of the many "fortunate discovery" scenarios people sometimes fantasize
about involves taking possession of a dwelling and turning up something of
great value
left behind by a previous resident — perhaps a forgotten stash of currency,
discarded coins that were once common but are now worth a pretty penny to
collectors, jewelry hidden away and never retrieved, etc. Purchasing an old
farmhouse and discovering the property included a barn stuffed full with a
few hundred vintage automobiles is a reverie probably outside the range of
even the most optimistic daydreamer's imaginings, but that's the backstory
that was created to enliven a set of photographs circulated in early 2007
that showed an "eclectic collection of old cars in a decaying building."
The referenced pictures (the full set is viewable here) were indeed taken in
a barn somewhere in Portugal, but the "lucky find" aspect of the story
doesn't quite ring true. As Tom Cotter of Sports Car Market magazine noted
when he looked into this story:
Huge collections of cars don't just happen. Cars are accumulated —
sometimes lovingly, sometimes not — by someone with a purpose. I was sure
this collection was not assembled by accident; nobody would simply sell an
old farm and fail to mention to the new owners the stash of old cars in the
barn.

What Cotter found out by tracking down the photographer was that the owner
of the barn (and the 180 or so vintage cars contained within) was not a
lucky buyer who had just purchased the property and was astonished to find a
treasure trove in one of the farm buildings. The owner was an automobile
dealer in the 1970s and 1980s who had built up an assemblage of cars over
the years and stashed it in the barn (locking and soldering the doors shut
when the structure was full) and who simply hired a photographer to document
his collection:

I was eventually able to contact the photographer who was contracted by the
cars' owner to shoot the photographs that would ultimately appear on
millions of car-guy computer monitors beginning on January 20 [2007].
Manuel Menezes Morais shot the photos, but he was sworn to secrecy about the
cars' location and the owner's name. However, he was able to obtain
permission from the elusive owner to give me the following information:
The owner of the cars was a car dealer in the 1970s and 1980s, and decided
to save the more interesting cars that came through his doors. When the barn
was full, he padlocked and "soldered" the doors shut. (Perhaps welding was
too permanent.)
Web sites varied on the number of cars: 58, 100, and 180 were speculated.
According to Morais, there are 180 cars in the barn.
And, aw shucks, none of the cars is for sale.

Anything AnyOne goes on to add this gigantic red-flag of a boilerplate:
This is a true story. The man and wife had a great retirement. (They had
full claim to the lot). It was valued at $35 Million Dollars.
Bad news, internet people. Aside from the fact the car-filled barn is indeed
in Portugal, the story is completely bogus.

The real story, thanks to Tom Cotter & sportscarmarket.com, is far-less
exciting. The cars all belong to a former car dealer form the 70s & 80s who
saved his favorites until the barn filled up. After that the doors were
locked and soldered shut. A photographer, Manuel Menezes Morais, was
commissioned by the owner to take the pictures that have fueled the
ludicrous story we now know is false.
Now you know the facts. Yes, there’s a barn in Portugal filled with rare
cars. No, they’re not for sale, and no, some New Yorker didn’t stumble
into the fortune of a lifetime. Case closed. (And here are more pictures for
you, because, well, they're awesome.)
