When I was 19 I made ticket deliveries to business for a travel agency. My normal car was a VW Rabbit. When that car died one summer I had to use one of the boss's Cadillacs, a 1960 convertible. I got plenty of attention that summer.

I do not have a stash, at least technically, and it does seem to be pretty rare.
Allow me to be more specific...
I have boxes full of old work, finished kits in various stages of disintegration, mostly stuff from childhood that deserves only to be stored in dusty old boxes. When I recently caught the modelling bug again (my 3rd time) I went through all that mess and discarded about 80% of the mess. I kept some key components like the top cover of my greatest Christmas present ever, the Tamiya 1/24 scale Tiger-I that I was given at age 13. It is a disaster, but I still love her. But a few (now down to one) boxes of poorly built not maintained old kits is not a stash right?
So when the bug bit again (recently) instead of rushing out to buy a new kit, I promised to either finish or sell the ones I still had in their own boxes, not the community graveyard boxes mentioned before. The kits I had that were started are:
Kits I have that I do not want to build (they are way over 25 years old) are:
So yeah, no stash in the way ya'll mean.
