So... was cleaning up today.... >rant on stupidity<

[Rolling_Thunder]

Well....     I was cleaning up my garage today so it doesn't look like a complete war zone...      and it struck me that I used to have a problem picking things and sticking with them...     My garage now houses a 318 poly, 360LA, a 6.1L Hemi, a 512 Stroker, and a 383...    Also houses 3 4-speeds, a 727, a 904, and a TKO...      I have found 4 camshafts not including the ones actually in engines...     one box marked "run time: 5 hours"    

Guess this is just a late night rant on my own stupidity....     anyone else just have too much crap ?

Sounds like good stuff to me.  I don't have much more than the car in my garage, I'm the opposite that if I'm not using it, bye bye.

[The70RT]

I can relate. I would show you a pic of my front garage and basement and other storage areas but I am too embarrassed. Before I moved 15 years ago I got rid of tons of crap. Now that crap would be worth a fortune. Like they say one mans junk is another mans treasure. If anyone is extensively into cars I think most are in the same boat.

I feel your pain, I have a rental property basement filled with parts, and it still seems like I have every part except what ever I need at that time

[rusty lee]

sounds familiar I have 3 engines 3 trans and my car is in peices. a box of monaco parts and some stuff I'm not sure of and I find more junk everytime I clean up.

[Blown70]

Well I have two Chargers.  So I have for some reason 5, 70 Charger fenders?    I only have one 440 block. but SEVERAL tail lights 69/70 a wood grain Dash for 69, wire harness for what I dont recall.  Door, etc. 

I did purge the shop 3 years ago, and go rid of a bunch of stuff.... only now I collect more.

[Charger_Fan]

Guilty.

[RECHRGD]

I can also relate.  Not only do I have a ton of car stuff in the shop, but everything else.  Living out in the boonies, I always buy more hardware, plumbing, electrical, paint, etc., etc. than needed to avoid extra trips to town.  I think I should get one of those pre-built storage buildings for every building or hobby necessity.  Bob

for some weird reason I have 5 extra 69 tailights. and 2 complete sets of stock 440 pulleys. othern that, pretty clean.

[Chad L. Magee]

Yep, I have done that too.  I am still moving stuff out of storage units back to my main storage place, after accumulating it during my years at MU.  So far I have two cars, two hoods, ten Charger doors, five K-Members, a set of 70 Charger bumpers (with the attaching supports), and alot of other misc. parts and cr#p to go yet.  Don't get me started on my main parts stash.....

[C500]

I wish I had room for all that stuff in my Garage. Hard enough getting 2 cars in there.

[FLG]

Hey rolling...anytime you need space ill take that 512 stroker off your hands...heck if you REALLY need the room ill even come there to pick it up. I wont even charge you for pickup...  

[TUFCAT]

Not me...    I keep no extra stock.   Once I sell a car,  any leftover "stashed away goodies" gets sold on ebay.  Currently, my secret stash contains only 1967 Dodge Coronet (and date coded 1967 parts). Anything else of value was either sold a long time ago, or will be going soon.

My formerly precious "jewels" are found on many other peoples cars!!

I guess I don't like to keep unused parts (.....that could be making money).  Plus, the extra clutter just gets in my way. 

[mikesbbody]

I dont think you can ever have "too many" spare parts. I made a list the other day and i couldnt believe it!  The list got bigger, and bigger  everytime i looked around i found more parts.

[RallyeMike]

You don't even have a problem yet !

[A383Wing]

Guilty here also...9 cars...too much crap, and still collecting more...just went and picked up a 1500cc spare engine for the Metropolitan....not sure why, but price was right.

Here is my front garage 26 X 32. It has just enough room for the ole lady to park in. Behind what you see in the first pic and in the second pic along the back window is a another car in there somewhere (drivers window between the two bikes if you look close) 

[Silver R/T]

sounds like youve got a big garage then

[Bandit72]

guilty here too...i just have too many hobbies/projects lol. Between the Charger, The Mud Truck, 3 antique tractors, a handful of Dodge Sweptline Trucks, and my 68 Chevy C-10. I have alot of stuff lol.

[RD]

i can relate too.. though i dont have as much cool stuff.. but i have collected "stuff" that I thought would be stuff I needed (you know those parts that are rare and the minute you get rid of it, you will find a use for it).

i wont go into a list, but its significant enough to not the let the wife know about all of it

[oldgold69]

i can  never run out of parts if anyone wants to get rid of mopar parts they always ask me if  i want it. i can never turn it down . besides my son collects parts all the time.  add it to mine and  only my old cars fit in the garage . my wifes car has'nt the inside of a garage since 85. my wife affectionally calls it my rusty metal collection.
