Former professional car dealer Ad Palmen of the Netherlands, 82, had been collecting cars for decades. He stored them in a church and two “dry but dusty” warehouses in Dordrecht until his ailing health forced him to sell them all. Hans van der Pluijm, the owner of Classic Car Auctions, will be overseeing the international online auction of the lot known as The Palmen Barnfind Collection, in collaboration with Gallery Aaldering, on May 19.
