True story or not, it is still a great collection somewhere. Does anyone have any idea where a collection like that is?

Thanks for the link, but the original story link appears to be MIA now. There is a new version making the email rounds and I wanted to compare it the one here.

clicking on the snopes link leads to more links

the SCR article states: "Clara was able to determine that the cars are located somewhere in the area of Sintra, near Lisbon."

Here are the links that the snopes link will lead you to:

then from the snopes links you can get to:
