My recent Diecast acquisitions.

[Ramfins59]

During May and June I was able to acquire several Diecast cars on EBAY that filled in "holes" in my ever-growing 1950's model collection. I got them all for pretty cheap prices. Here are links to pictures of them...

First... 1950 Chevrolet

Nice. I'm guessing they are all 1/24. The 57 Cadillac had those issues for some time, not sure if there are any that don't have them.

Nice haul Rich, and yes I like the Merc the best also.

[Ramfins59]

Thanks guys. At some point in time I'll get around to taking the Cadillac apart and repainting the doors.

The Cadillac is super cool. Love the suicide doors.
