Well, not a great colector here, but like those litle stuff.
Have three or four VW Beetles, two or three Chevy BelAir's (57 and my faroryte, the 55).
Concerning to Chevelle, one Hot Wheels 69, two Greenlights SS 68 (one black, one white), one 1/18 SS 396 68 (Whellie) and one 1/24 SS 396 in black.
LOVE them....

Here are few shots of the wall. My car is a factory two-tone, champagne gold, black strips and white top. The chrome trim at the top of the gold on the wall is the two-tone/vinyl top chrome strip. Chrome on the edge of the shelve is the top of the bumper. Below that is a bunch of junk. Guess I could have removed the pictures and signs and the 30 qts of oil from the shelf but you get the idea. Besides I did remove all the rest of the stuff on the shelf. I need to get is butt back out there and have him finish the outlet cover.

I have one less die cast as of today as I gave our youngest foster boy a Chevy stepside truck ,he is a Ford guy so I just had to give him a Chevy .Although he loves our Chevelle and El Camino .He also likes my old 74 Chevy truck now that he knows how to drive a 3 on the tree .He had never even seen a truck with 3 on the tree before this one .

Nice job by your son on the back wall.

I used to collect. At my peak I had almost 1,000 cars from 1:64th up to 1:18th. I think I'm down to less than 200 now. I've been using them as money here lately since the paper in my wallet doesn't seem to be as valuable as it used to be. I just traded 20 die cast for a solid front axle, steering and suspension for a 1916 C-Cab delivery I'm building.

Here's what's on display around the house.

Nice collection!

I have a few of the same ones, such as the 4 American Graffiti cars, the blue '69 Chevelle, and the Arnie Beswick '69 "Super Judge". My Arnie Beswick car is autographed,
