In terms of parts - it is stating the obvious, but good storage and suitable protection so they won't deteriorate over the years is important. I went to see some parts offered for sale locally that had been kept in a leaky shed - they were corroded beyond the point of rescue.
What do you know about the spares you have? Type, date, origin, condition etc. I have a list - tend to forget what is there.
Labelling can help with memory too.
Items such as a cracked steering arm and cracked three-bearing crank (with the mag particle crack detection paint left on them) have been kept to show on 'crack-detection night' at local club meetings!
