Yes I consider myself a collector/curator/restorer. While not all my bikes are in 'off the rack' configuration, I try to maintain (like most of you) the spirit of the era.

PS see signature
I'm a collector with bad taste. Almost all of my bikes are low-end. I even have Huffys which I took because people pleaded with me or just dropped them off.

I have 29 bikes of my own plus other bikes here for repair or other reasons. I qualify for the Hoarders TV show. It's a problem.
