Six Signature. And a few Johnny Lightning. Some HO scale. Off brands. Never played with. Is this where I could post them to trade here?

Is this where you would trade die cast cars? I have a few I'd like to get rid of.

Micheal. I do have to find a few things like the boat for the trailer. The tvs and ladder for the tv van. The roof rack and boat for the Corsa. The hunter and dogs for the Studebaker station wagon. Tires for my Dinkys and Corgis. I'll check on line. And I would like to try and repaint a couple. Any hints with die cast as far as stripping and repainting? Mark Orr. So sorry for your loss. I can't imagine what that is like.

Great build.

Fast and furious for sure! Nice

Looks like it’s ready to race.

You nailed it. Nice.

They are all great. Love paring them together.

Looks great.

Are you going to rebuild it or leave it as is?

My dad left when I was in 3rd grade so we grew up with just our mom for most of our preteen years. We had no money. So we were taught to cherish what we got as gifts. The Dinky tractor trailer has a note written on the box from Santa to me. It was a special gift from Santa for helping my mom. Then she remarried when I was 13. Big mistake. A sicko. I moved out when I was 16 just to get away from him. Held 2 jobs. Had a studio apartment. And attended and graduated high school.. Moved back home after my step dad left to help my mom with money at 19. My matchbox cars were my escape from our family life as a kid. Now back to building models. Keeps me busy for sure. Lol

I lived in Gloversville as a child and have 3 brothers and 2 sisters. My younger brothers blew up my model cars but my mom kept a sharp eye on my matchbox, dinky and corgi cars. I use to wax them with car wax. Going through them today I noticed I did a little embellishing such as tail lights, head lights and bumpers. Does that reduce the value? Maybe. And I wrote the number of the car and what car on the top of each box so I didn’t want to keep pulling them out to know what one was. Thing is I have no children. So they will most likely be sold when I’m gone.

You have a right to be proud snake.

How many still have their toys cars from their childhood?

Nice builds and color choices.

Love it!

Great job.

Cool paint job.

Nice.

Great job.

Excellent!

Beautiful!

Stop. You're making me hungry. LOL

Cod baked with mushrooms, tomatoes, chilis, green olives and shredded Parmesan. Rutabaga on the side.

You have to be really careful. I got caught on a blazer. I thought it was for the kits that was shown with it. Small print that I didn't see was "box only". Anyone need a blazer box?
