Five years ago when I had my first heart attack, as I laid in the hospital bed, I had the same thoughts. When I came home, I sold 22 Harley Davidsons that I had collected, most of 4 garages full of Harley parts, four cars, and some of my gun collection. I'm using the cash to build my retirement place in Florida right now. I figure that will be a lot easier for my wife to sell than all the &quot;stuff&quot; that I had accumulated through the years.
I was at Al's place a few times. The stuff he had amassed is nothing short of amazing. I met him 40 years ago, at a small shop here in Flint, Kustom Headers.
