Bad mistake!!</p><p>turned a hobby into a business. Business was phenomenally successful, Killed my passion for the hobby. My 17 year old now has more firearms than I do. </p><p>Then authentic Japanese swords, that one did not last long, just lost the passion. I only ended up keeping one, a World War II Officer&#039;s Sword for my son,the rest were traded for cars.</p><p>began collecting cars. really liked late 70&#039;s Firebird&#039;s&nbsp; had two Firefird&#039;s two Firebird TransAm&#039;s and 1 Formula Firebird. One of the TransAm&#039;s had to make a full frame under her because the 454 engine I put in her wanted&nbsp; to twist the body on launch. WAY TOO MUCH FUN:hail:</p><p>One of my favorites was a 58 Chevy Biscayne two door with the original 327 engine in near mint condition. Got Married and when my son was on the way decided to down size to Motorcycles (Much easier to store)</p><p>now we are down to just three motorcycles mine 97 Honda ACE 1100 from a buddy,my wife&#039;s 05 Honda Aero 750 Bought new Crated&nbsp; and my son&#039;s 04 Yamaha R6 600 got for him the spring after he turned 14. Been real interested on old mini-bikes lately ran across a Late 60&#039;s early 70&#039;s chopper mini-bike with a 5 horse engine that was licensed by Harley-Davidson. </p><p>(Probably during the horrible AMF Days of Harley)Frame has painted a few times Thank Goodness no one painted the motor. I remember seeing only one like that when I was growing up. Still trying to track down the manufacturer of that piece. And all through all of that The Coins were always there&nbsp; and will probably always will be. For me it is all about fun and passion for any hobby. The passion for coins has always been there.</p><p>Just My 2 Cent Piece </p><p><br /></p><p>Stewart[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
