Ewen Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 I first thought it was another legend like the Barn in Portugal but it looks genuine enough a story. Amazing luck. The only problem now for them is to find somewhere to keep the money that wont go belly up next month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one... http://lighthousepatriotjournal.wordpress.com/2007/08/25/myth-blaster-the-case-of-the-barn-find-in-portugal/ Theres quite a few links on the net to what was initially a fairy story of good luck...based on fact (the barn and cars were real) but still owned by the original collector who was still very much alive.
