True Story or Urban Myth?

This story has been floating around the net for a while now. For some reason I have a really hard time believing that someone bought the property without knowing what was in the barn or at least the history of the property.
Whats your take on it?

True or not it would be a neat find. I'd like to have any number of those cars.

I have seen that before. There has to be some sort of interesting story (but it may be different than the one you have read). There are many very interesting cars in that barn, & it appears thay have been in there for quite awhile.

I am sure someone will reply with additional information about the "story".

The buyer should consider filing a lawsuit against the seller to recover what it's going to cost to get those cars crushed and hauled away.

supposed to have happend in Portugal where somebody bought some land and the barn was an unknown part of the deal

plenty of barns like that here in Holland, owner collects cars, get's old, and dust settles on the lot...

The way I read it even Tom Cotter has his reservations to the accuracy of the story. The Story in Sports Car Market
