With the addition of my newly scratched car hauler, I decided to post it with some of my older builds... I hadn't built a tractor unit for it, yet, so I just threw one of my 579's out front.... To tell you the truth, I kinda like it... Works great for my die casts, as you can see with my load of die cast Camaros....

Anyway.... I hope y'all enjoy these as much as I had fun building them....

Looking good!  I remember watching all those come together, great to see them again. I’m not gonna lie though, that ‘not orange’ rig looks out of place?

Throw some orange stripes on that white 579 and you’ve got yourself a fleet.

Nice work, and a great way to display your cars. I’d love to see a group photo of your enclosed car haulers, too.

You know what? Both those ideas are FANTASTIC!!! Gotta get some orange stripes and take some more pics of my race rigs.... Excellent idea, Vince...?

Wow, you have been busy. Looking good. How do you store them to reduce dust?

To be honest, Bro, I can't... Dust gets EVERYWHERE... I have to dust them off, periodically... I'm at a loss as for what to do about it... Individual display cases are just too expensive... And I just don't have the space for the big glass ones, so I get lots of dust.... ? I'll have to do some more thinking....

Maybe under-the-bed storage bins?, like Rubbermaid or similar? Anything to help protect all the effort and hard work.

Hmmm... At the right height, that just might work... I may have to explore that option....

JT, check your local craigslist or Facebook garage sale, maybe you can score a display case for cheap, I had two of them given to me.

I see them from time to time down here, as well... I catch them every once in a while on offer up, and a buddy of mine had spotted a couple outside a beauty shop the other day.... I just don't have the room, as of yet... But those are a good option...

Nice fleet you have there. Most car model builders would love to a transporter in collection and you have three! ?

They look very well built, excellent work!
