      My God that's a pile of stuff. I could sell that on ebay for the rest of my life.
      There were some Yamahas listed too. Wish I was close. I'd go to that auction.

        Wow! If you were into restoring older Brit bikes that should give you a pretty good woodie. Some of that stuff must be tought to find. Engine cases? I wouldn't think there are many of those left in crates.
        What a gold mine...
