I am 80 years young and have been getting rid of odds and ends for the last 3 or 4 years on Ebay and Craigs list. My thoughts at the time were to get these old parts and tools into the hands of someone who needed them and could put them to use. Also, as I was not getting any younger, it would ease my wife's mind to get rid of this while I was able rather than later when I might be disabled or not even around.
3 months ago I was preparing for a shoulder operation and MRIs CAT scans and etc discovered a growth on my pancreas. My time now is very limited and I still have a lot of odds and ends to get rid of. My friends with old Lincolns are gone, and it seems that younger people prefer the muscle cars.
Don't wait too long to get rid of your "stuff".

V12Bill:
Damn so sorry to hear of your last results. I have been selling of my cars as best I can & only wish to end up with one. Cleared the shop of most of the collectables but still have a bunch to go.
