I've been in those tunnels!

And the ones at Jaguar (Castle Bromwich) and on the roof at Browns lane where the anti aircraft guns used to be!!

i reckon that the price included the cars, 1st pic, even before the doors are cut open they have a tow truck there. and why else would they take a pic of the doors welded shut. but i could very well be wrong, look at my neighbours cousin, bloke who owned a pine plantation down near mt kosioko lost all his pine trees in a bush fire, he ended up finding a nugget of gold of some amount shortly after this.

Hi,

i think the last car is a Lancia Flaminia, one of the rarest of the 180, almost all of them have portuguese license plates.

you can get some info on some of the cars in this Portuguese Forum.

http://forum.autohoje.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=97706&whichpage=8

This treasure is involved in some mistery, as it is not very clear how all these cars were bought or collected . Seems they all belong to the same owner that invited a forum moderator to assist and take photos to the opening of the barn. Seems the cars stayed closed during 15 years.....
everyone here in Portugal is curious and trying to get more info on this , and of course the possibility of getting one of those beautys! :-)

cheers,
Luis
