Watch Out For Spiders! Latest Barn Find Has More Bugs Than a VW Convention
Filed in archive Barn Finds by Philip Powell on August 20, 2007

Just when you think all the barn finds have been found, another appears to restore your faith in magic. In this instance the cars are owned by a guy who goes by the name "Wilson" and deals in Puerto Rican real estate. Wilson started collecting in the 1960s and in 20 years found himself with 90-odd cars, all stored in a downtown Worcester, Massachusetts, warehouse until 1990 when his kids him found a cheaper place. Hemmings revealed this fascinating tale in their weekly blog site and its description of the conditions inside that cave are enough to convince me I wouldn't want to set foot in the place, old cars
or not. Yech! Apparently the rent owing is $120,000 (must be a very understanding landlord) so the cars will be sold as a group for exactly that amount. If a buyer's not found, they'll likely be auctioned. Quite a treasure trove and if you don't mind things that creep, crawl, or go bump in the night, have a look. Thanks to Gary Grant at thegarageblog.com for drawing our attention to this story.[photo: Hemmings]
