Most likely my future is on the show Horders and kick someones a$$ when they try and throw a used head gasket away! Have Mopar 68-70"s engines stashed also and kinda a timeline of adventures although I've enjoyed the Evos more, it is a sickness I tell ya.

I don't blame you one bit. My garage contains parts, used and new, for BMWs and Harleys going back 40-45 years. My only limit is financial, but one of my biggest nightmares is having to move all of it.
