Treasure Chest?

Christmas morning?
Awesome puzzle?
Box of parts?
Back up plan?
Graveyard?

I guess it all depends on the level of enthusiasm.

This is the box full of the original parts from the VNB. I began reconnecting the cables today and was digging through the box for odds and ends. Down in the bucket was the original carburetor box and insides, the center stand which was replaced with a kick stand (that will go back on soon!), the mixing pitcher, the original 125cc cylinder and head, 2 flywheel covers (the third's from the VNC), an innertube, various spare cables, some squirrel bones, some grommets, the air intake bellows, various ziplock bags containing loose screws and jets and air filters, a shifter box, the ancient carb float, an unspoken history, the hopes and dreams of previous owners (cheers to them), a little box that whispers "EVIL!!" when you open it and a tube of liquid gasket. I believe there might also have been some random ETC...

Opportunity?
Delusion?
Adventure?
Lessons to be learned?
Shameful "take it off my hands" knowing full well it will be someone else's problem future Craigslist ad?
A challenge to be risen to?
A roaring classic down the road?
The banal topic of a navel-gazing level list of rhetorical questions that doesn't inform anyone of much?

What will make this run? The Gold Price or the Iron Price?
Winter's coming, William. Time to get working!

It's Scooter, Texas. It won't get too cold.
