Default Serious Question

I have been going overboard finding Cubs in need of rescuing and need to stop.

Just like adopting ever stray you come across, but I don't want to become the little old lady with 100 cats. 25 years ago I did the same with old British Motorcycles. I would save them and fix them up. Got out of hand and I wound up with 15. Realized I was out of room to store them and not the time to really keep them up and going. I sold them to friends to give them good homes, keeping just a couple. Now I seem to be falling into the same with Cubs. I love them and they are surely a lot cheaper to get and fix up but what do I do?

Surely I will keep coming across good deals but do I just ignore the Cubs? I wish there was a rescue service near me I could pass along the information and let them do the rescue.

I guess I can pass along the finds to others here and let them take advantage of the deals, but how far are people willing to travel to pick them up? I don't know of any local collectors. I am not looking into making a business of parting out Cubs on the internet.

Luckily I have a friend with storage space to store mine but I don't want to take advantage of our friendship.

What would you do?

Thanks for letting me ramble on.
