Is that stuff possibly out of Bruce’s collection or So-Cal Sacramento?

I thought I heard that the owner or a business partner had died a couple years ago and they had closed after that. It looked like They were liquidating through Ebay at one point.
They aren't listed on So-Cal locations any more either.

Lets hope all the parts go to a good home and do not end up in a scrap yard. I was searching for piston rings for my second french flatty, eventually found some (very difficult) and see that in this auction there are thousands of them! If I were near I would at least bid/grab a couple french engines and lots of parts.
