[OT] What A Find!
It's too bad all those cars weren't under covers! Now the guy needs a pressure washer. ;)
Besides the Beetle, I didn't see other VW's. The old man collecting the cars obviously had a void
in his collection without a Scirocco in there. ;)
And with a "barn" that size, I would have bough the place just for that amount of storage space
alone!
Some people are just lucky...
