If you care to share pics of your hoard... whatever it may be... dollar tail lights, lug nuts, pile of NOS pressed bumpers, or just the pile in your carport/shed.
Bring it... it's just in fun...

Everett was kind enough to come clean about his jack hoard (at least he's tidy... even has a towel under them):

If any of you would like to show your hoard... but remain anonymous.
I can post the pic for you.

To remove any potentially identifying metadata... just take a screen
shot of the pic & send it to me... or I can do it before posting (just
let me know). I can add any desired body text.

I thought you wanted peeps to show their OWN hordes, Evan. Pretty sneaky outing Ev, though Wink . I remember when you stopped by to look at the spring on my POS Ambo step. You had a pretty righteous stash in the back of your car that day. So, come on, cut loose with a taste.

When Ev exposed his jacks in the Bilstein Vigot Jack thread... I just couldn't help it Embarassed
I wish I was as organized as Ev... & could have all my stuff like that. Soon though... I'm in the process of permitting for a 20x40 shop. Until then... shit's strewn all over the dang place. I'm driving my wife nuts. Parts by the TV, parts by the couch, parts in the spare bedroom, parts in my bathroom cabinet, parts on the porch... it's ugly Brother.

I can't pick a good shitty pile to show... but here's a grip of dirty NOS bus door seals & a stack of SA Sprints I was accumulating.

I see those points and I have to laugh!
I broke down right next to a Orielly's one night. My points were badly pitted and wouldn't close, so I figured I would just buy a new set. When I asked, the kid behind the counter said---"what?"
I said points for a 62 VW bus! He said back----"I heard you, but what are points?"

If those are 36hp ones, that is kind of neat.

If it's 1500cc ones, I have A LOT of those. Maybe 30? Sort of pointless.

I might have a couple brake drums, backing plates and pieces of tin. I believe I am the bacon strip king of the Southwest. Very Happy

Yep, three of them are 36 hp governors- someone has a trained eye Wink Two of the three are NOS mostly because having a speed governor on a 36 hp bus is very much of an oxymoron!

If you mounted those on a base of some kind they would make an awesome pencil/pen holder.
