There are a lot of hateful people out there in the world. And there are some who will do ANYTHING for a buck. Some people are perfectly willing to stoop to do disgustingly despicable things and use any excuse (including pure outright hate) to justify the evil they do. They may lie and say they got it "legally"... they may use any excuse to make you think it is okay to buy our stolen items from them in Southern California.THESE PEOPLE HAVE NO SOULS AND THEY DESERVE WHATEVER IS COMING FOR THEM. Some twisted people may think this is funny. Hopefully you won't. The people who did this DID IT ON PURPOSE. They could not spend a lifetime gathering all these things, they neither had the brains nor the vision. SO? So their solution was to simply steal it all, and lie about how they got it.
These bicycles, automotive items and more were stolen from us around 2001. We are announcing it now since they have been turning up for sale around the country. Some on eBay. Of course eBay will do nothing since every serial number, purchase receipt etc. of nearly 50 years of collecting has to be verified- which is virtually impossible. If you buy these bicycles or parts, YOU ARE BUYING STOLEN ITEMS. If you have information about these items please send us an email, If you out of the state of California, we can forward your information to the FBI.
