Holy F-ing S#@*^. I wonder if he can legally keep the cars. I would like to know the details. Better hope Jay Leno doesn't get wind of this story.
Malicious, vindictive, spiteful, cynical, pessimistic, sarcastic, & antagonistic. And those are my good traits!

Yeah but i hardly doubt someone would put them in there then forget. Then someone buys the property without looking in a building? :-\

I wasn't sure about any Mopars, but I think I spotted one Old's 442 in there.

Bronze was right. And it's not a 442. But it is a '71 or '72 Cutlass 4 door, and right next to it is what looks like a '65 Plymouth.

next days paper headline : 180 stolen classic cars found!
Daddy ran whiskey in a big black dodge
bought it at an auction at the masons lodge,
Johnson County Sherriff painted on the side,
just shot a coat of primer then he looked inside,
well him and my uncle tore that engine down,
I still remember that rumblin' sound.....

Holy Sh!$, talk about one sweet find. I really doubt the guy got to keep the cars but if he did thats way better then winning the lottery. That Lotus sure would be sweet.

If you really look at all those pictures, there are some really collectible cars there, some old porches, cooper, fiats and on and on.  Why wouldn't he get to keep it.  He bought the property, I don't see why he wouldn't.  I know it's Portugal, but I just don't see them taking them away from him....

Maybe the original owner died, and the person selling the property didn't bother checking the building because the doors were welded shut.

More pics and some cars identified, that is, if you can read norweagen
http://mirror.geenstijl.nl/pritt-mazda/www.mazda-ogn.org/forum/viewtopicef13.html
some odd birds in there.
I think the first thing I would do is check all the turnks for dead body's.
second thing would be buy a towe truck  and a power washer.
