    Could you imagine what all those bikes are going to fetch at the auction?

    Too bad there isn't anything you could do that to now-adays. No one is going to want a crated gixer in 40 years.

    I bet those are going to go for some BIG bucks to collectors.

    If I had the money, I'd buy 2. One to ride and 1 more to store for another 20 years!

    So strange that guy just stockpiled stuff, you almost wonder if he had some kind of mental illness. Don't you need to sell inventory to make money?

    So cool that it's still possible to buy one of these in the crate.

    I heard a story that in the mid-80's, dozens of Triumph military bikes from the 1950's (still in crates) were liquidated by the Canadian government and ended up at Building 19. Can you imagine walking in there and seeing that?
