its a case of knowing when to hold em, and knowing when to fold em.
alas once someone starts collecting, its almost impossible to get them to "fold em" I guess we all have stories of someone holding on to an item who says " Im gonna restore that someday",, and you realizing its never gonna happen, and the item rots away My best story is an MG-TD...spotted first when rough but restorable... got the story..gonna restore it, not for sale,,, years later spotted in exact same place, now very rough..good for some parts maybe...years later spotted again, literally collapsed into a pile of rusty junk with four rubber tires sticking out.... another story is of a CMP (known to several of us) owned by an 80+ yr-old guy..parked for years, if not decades,, good for parts only..and not many at that,, nope not for sale, gonna restore it.. last seen a few years ago and hadnt moved , just sitting exposed and getting worse...I expect its a total loss by now
