Default Barn Find - A BIG Barn

I ran across this link on a different group. I can't read anything on this group where the pictures are from, but they obviously have looser rules on avatars than here.

Anyway, I gather this barn had the doors welded shut for a long time. Lots of intersting cars.

What a drag. I knew I should have copied those pictures when I saw them. I didn't translate, but the gest of what I saw seemed like someone was upset that there was even an aerial photo of the location.

So I wonder if someone pulled the pictures off the server or if the number of people looking overloaded the server's tranfer rate/allowance.

There were a lot of old cars, mostly European makes, with some back to the '30s. Several Lotus and even some winged formula race cars.
