Most of us have seen that wonderful internet fairy story about a couple who bought a farm in Portugal, complete with a mysterious and securely
padlocked barn. The story goes that once the locks were cut off the couple found themselves gaping at a veritable treasure trove of classic cars —
all of them liberally covered in dust, but intact. It was the stuff we all dream of but, alas, it was apparently all a computer-generated hoax. It’s
not the only story running along those lines that’s gone viral on the internet, and it’s hard to know what to believe in these days of Photoshop
image manipulation. However, forget about the hoaxes — here’s the ‘real thing’ — and, rest assured, there’s no computer enhancement when
it comes to this Waikato collection of just over 200 cars.
