Looking at the contents of that plastic box in the second picture drives me a little nutz... 
I wonder if they were actually kept like that or did the heirs just throw ”all that old junk” in the box. There’s some prized stuff there, I’ll say.
Are you going to eBay all those used ones or put some of in the store Bernie?

Why can't I find estate sales like that! 
There's some pretty nice engines in there.

Most engines are new in that bin and they all came in individual poly bags. I just removed them and gently laid them on top of each other to get some sort of overview of what there is.
No "real" Killer Bee in the mix that I remember.
The boxed engines and the loose new engines will probably go onto our site and the used stuff likely to eBay.
We have to index it all first as we are paying a % of retail value to the estate. Customer of ours died that spent over $25,000 with us. Matt from EX took all the Fox stuff but we also ended up with engines from other brands. This is going to be a long-term project lol.

Yes I know but, when I replied, you had not posted; otherwise would not have posted.

Bernie do one of those non-transparent plastic boxes hold old stock No.1 or No4 or No5 cylinder-piston combos? Sorry for the blunt detail question in times when I know you are busy inventorying this beautiful haul...

Could well be but we will probably not get to this for weeks / monthn. However, you will be first to know if this is the case

Golly gosh, what a find !
Not wanting to appear as a vulture, but if there are any td09 plastic carb manifolds in that lot, could I buy some please ?
Also a td09 RC carb ?
I know you will be busy sorting etc. But if those parts are in there, please PM me.
I regularly check exmodelengine engines and Cox international but no luck yet.
Probably when I finally take the plunge and buy 3 alloy manifolds to alter, the plastic ones will turn up, sods law.

Oh!
I'd like to purchase as much as I could but I'm tapped out!
Spent almost $10,000 on these small engines this year, on the engines and parts to refurbish them.
That's not including the money spent on the Enya engines I purchased and are refurbishing as well.

Lot a money but what a beautiful selection of engines.
I have an ENYA R-120 new in box but partially disassembled. I bought it for the Super Sportster 90/120 but never built it. I gave it to my buddy and he built it as an electric.

We don't really know what is all in there but, once inventoried, will contact the ones that have posted with requests if those parts are in the lot.
