Hey y'all,
I've been giving this some thought. here's what I have in mind. Larry,
Dave, and brother Don get first dibs, as they were the ones brave/stupid
enough to help snatch some of these cars. Many of you have asked about
specific parts, and in many cases, I think we'll have something for you.
Some other things, we won't know until they can inspected further. The 4
most recent cars have all been powerwashed once, and are being left out in
the rain/weather until SOS just to try to get the stench of raccoon pooh and
wiz a little less obvious. Ugggh.
I've got a lot of Spridgets. some street cars, and some race cars. I try to
collect what I think I'll need during the next 20 or so years of my
racing/restoration hobby. because this stuff is becoming unobtanium. But,
despite having 6000 sq ft of storage, there is a limit. I've bought enough
collections of cars and parts over the years from folks getting out of the
hobby, or from widows after some poor slob died to know I don't want to
burden the living with all my crap once I'm gone.
2.5 years after moving here, I'm slowly gaining on organizing my shop, and
my cars & parts. The rest, I'd rather see go to folks trying to keep these
cars on the road, rather than just dump truckloads of parts for scrap metal
prices (which actually are pretty good these days). Some stuff will see
Ebay, but my preference is these parts go to members of these lists, and
more specifically, participants in SOS (whether in person or peripherally).
More in part 2.
