Default Die Cast Cars / Any Collectors

I collect what interests me depending on my mood at the time but just found a 1/64 scale red 70 Chevelle with the Woodward Dreamcruise Logo on it for around $13 + shipping and I could not resist .

I have a few that I have bought recently, mostly have Hot Wheels, Matchbox, and Green Light cars. They take up less space.

I have about 300 1/24 scale dealer promotional models,starting from the late 60s to the early 90s. Probably should sell the things.

Not a collector but I do have 1 Hallmark 70 SS Christmas tree ornament and one 70 SS model my son put together for me a few years ago. He also painted the wall in the back of the garage to look like my 70 SS trunk. Champagne Gold with black SS strips. Strips are to scale and nicely shaped. Then he painted the edge of the shelve below it with chrome paint so it looks like the top edge of the bumper.

How about a picture of the garage wall. Sounds cool.

I have a few cars, one that matches my car and a red exact detail convertable that cost me about $100 when I bought it 5 years ago.

I too would love to see the garage wall as well as any collection anyone would like to share .I have so many toys of various sizes I really dont even know what nor how many I have as well as many models I have built over the years as well as about 100 models not put together .I have a lot of Hot Wheels hanging on my shop walls as well as some stored in containers .I make Christmas Tree ornaments out of Hot Wheels to give to friends and I also let the foster boys pick from my favorite Hot Wheels hanging on my shop walls for them to take home .I prefer to let them have my favorite ones and then I get more .

I don't have shelves up yet in the new place, but will post some pics when I get everything out of the boxes they're in.
