Most people, when they realize they’ve made a mistake, cut their losses and resolve to learn from it and move on.

Some people double down.

Once you get 3 or 4, they just start to accumulate naturally.

My guess is some one thought they would be a good investment. In this case, depending on when they were purchased, he might have been right.

The “investor” is most likely recently deceased. The real problem when people have stuff like this they always think. “Why sell now, they’ll be worth more next year.”

At one time they were worth little, and all it takes is a compulsive personality. Even now, it might be hard to run in the black with these.

The person probably loves MGAs and their goal was probably to save as many as they could.

Hey, if you can corner a super-majority of the market it’s a viable option. I mean not with Chryslers from the... well anytime after the 70s.

As someone who owns not one but three project spitfires...it happens a lot easier than you think.

More ideas than time + bargains that are too good to pass up is quite the combination.

22 is a little much though...

that, and when you want to put together a very nice example, it can be easier/cheaper to get an entire car of spares and different options... that guy probably had two others outside of that garage at his home that were pristine drivers.... its also nice, that when you have a car you truly love, to have spare parts to put the car back together should some misfortune find it.....
