Hi everyone, I'm new here. I just got back into modeling about a year ago. I have not done any since my early teens and I'm now 55. I was looking for diecast cars that you put together and I get confused about the ones that they sell that are already built and the ones that not. Could anyone give me a site for the ones that you have to build. Thanks for your help! :unsure:

I'd suggest you check out the nearest hobby shop, or Hobby Lobby, if you have those where you live, and see the kits in person. Sometimes it can be confusing to buy them online and know if it's a kit or a finished model. My local Hobby Lobby has dozens of die-cast kits on the shelves. HL is a chain, but not in every state... so if you happen to have one nearby, I'd definitely check it out.

A good brand for die-cast kits is Maisto. You can check their site for different cars, but I'm not sure what they have.
