        That looks like some kind of motorcycle dungeon... Scary, but in an awe-inspiring kind of way.

        A person could spend a year listing things on eBay from that stash! And not be through it.

        So, since it looks like old snapshots laid out on a table and photographed... who, what, where?

        Or is it really yours, ya lucky dog!

        Cheers,

        Sirhr

              I've always wanted to own a junkyard, so I'm very jealous!
              Do you ever go down there and "pet" it? .. or are you past that?

                      These pictures are just part of a huge stash a friend of mine bought in about 1977 from Belmont HD, West 7th, St Paul, Minnesota. They are mostly of the basement where the 'junk' was stored. The final tally was 21 semi trailers of used and NOS for $1000 per trailer and he rounded it to $20,000 for cash. The trailers were packed floor to ceiling regardless of weight. Some of the loads were so heavy that the landing gear of the trailer settled into the pavement. Ended up with about 50 bikes probably 300 engines, frames and everything in between. I hate to think of what this stash would have cost today.
