So I've finally come to the realization that I need to clear out my massive hoard. Every time I go behind my shop I end up looking around for a while and then walk away looking like (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) . Also, due to my job and a new baby I've decided that I'll never have the time to spend cleaning, advertising, and showing the massive amount of items that I've collected, so I've decided that I'm going to have a one day Estate Auction Type sale instead in the hopes of moving most if not all of it.
I'm thinking about setting the date of the sale for late May to late July 2017 and what I'd like to do is get some feedback from everyone over the next few weeks to see what dates would be convenient for you. Also, for those of you that can't attend I may add an online proxy-type bid, but that will depend on the feedback I receive. Please reply to this post with a date when you could attend an estate sale (May, June, or July) along with if you can attend in person or only via an online sale. Also please note if you'd be interested in a car, parts, or both. Please plan on the sale to be located in the Inland Empire area of Southern California with an open house style viewing the weekend before the sale and 3-4 hours before the actual day of the sale. Sale Items: 20 Cars in total (Rollers from $400-$1500, Shells from $50-$100) 15 Rollers & 5 Shells (All 1970-76 914-4 models including): - LE Creamsicle - Flared cars - 5 Lug cars - EV car (Electric Conversion with electric motor & trans) - Sepia brown paint code car Parts: This list and the qty's will need to be finalized but will most likely contain the below plus some extras: - F & R Bumpers (about 30+ chrome & painted from 1970-74 cars) - Bumper rubber tops - Heat exchangers (1.7 & 2.0, about 20 sets) - 911 and 914-6 front suspensions (front struts, rotors, calipers ASM) - Rear struts/suspensions arms - Mufflers (factory & aftermarket) - Valances (F & R) - Rocker Panels - Center consoles - Engine lids - Interior parts (Back pads, speaker enclosures, door pulls, etc) - Glass (including rear window defrosters) - Transmissions - Engines (TBD) - A/C systems - Doors - Gas tanks - Wheels - Engine lids - Pedal ASMs - Luggage rack Please note that I will be watching this post and will update it with more photos and details as I have time (although limited (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif) ). Also please don't contact me with requests to view or purchase anything before the sale. I want to keep this fair for everyone and don't want to have anyone feel that they've missed out on something due to preferential treatment. Thanks, Mike Attached thumbnail(s) |

WOW ! What a collection.
And I get accused of hoarding to many parts and cars..... I bow to your fortitude and storage space! I am definitely not worthy to be in your company. I will definitely plan to attend in person. The May, June time frame works for me as I don't have any travel plans and weekends are available for me. Thanks for making this available to those of us that are going to continue the species.

I'm open any time for an online sale.
I'd be very interested in the Sepia Brown car and the one with the 5 lug Fuchs (same car?) |

Depending on my ownership status, I could make the drive down for parts.

Is this going to be an auction? or first come first serve? If you you might have people camping at your doorstep. To avoid fighting over parts I would go auction style !

What a great idea - do it while you are still around to enjoy the dividends.
Your yard is clean and well organized...that's a great sign. Would be interested to know more about the Creamsicle when you poste details. |

Putting together a personal auction website as a wordpress addon is relatively easy. Plus you can post pics easily.
I wouldn't drive hours to 'see' stuff but I would if I had bought a chassis, or something smaller a member could ship. Getting more than a dozen together any given weekend is tough. My first 75 got wrecked but I kept all the pieces, so I keep a lookout for a good 75-76 chassis within towing distance. Plus I like having a few spare body parts; trunk lids, chrome bumpers, for the 'just in case' moments. |
