FD parts treasure trove discovered in Kansas
But I do see where everyone is coming from with disliking Lucas, I would be mad to if he said everything is for sale and change his mind. I'm biased because I was fortunate enough to get the seats from him. I want to make this clear but I'm very thankful I was able to get ahold of these seats. Thanks to anyone that congratulated me.
Bring it on home.
Could he have been ex-military and accumulated those parts in Japan? Hence under the radar here? Look closely at the packing boxes, if you are visiting there again.
That's a good idea that he could of been ex military but after searching his name on the internet, he doesn't come up that much. Very weird. His obituary is very simple too, also weird. How did this stuff not get passed down to fis family?
In the video the owner states that the parts were purchased via Buyee, a thrid-party service for purchasing items off AYJ, and RHDJapan.

The new owner said that he owned 4 fds , the 3rd it's assumed to be at a tuners shop and the 4th one nobody knows where is it, on top of that he had a room full of comics and a basement with a lot of aquariums with expensive stuff I think.
So this guy hit the lotto and spent it all on stuff or something lol.
This:
At the same time don't go all out either in living in the moment. Moderation is key

Remember folks, enjoy the time you’ve got. Don’t let your planning get in the way of actually doing something. My decision paralysis sometimes keeps me from doing things, and it’s something I’ve been trying to work on.

Yeah and he also has store credit left with rhdjapan or at least at the time he bought the re-a body kit. He spent like 10k on it.

The internet fame may end up netting him a visit from the IRS for the additional income? Hope he has a good accountant! (I kid)
I'm more interested in the prior owner of this stuff. Who was he? How did he fly under the radar? Most guys with that sort of collection have likely been a member here at one point.
