Current grail for me is the Buddy L Texaco station; just recently got two of the gas pumps so that's a start.

I'm surprised it hasn't been replicated in resin or 3D yet.

I had one of the metal Sears Allstate service stations. It was one of my favorite toys.

Certainly my (unbuilt) Fisher resin kits:

 

1967 Chaparral 2 F

1970 Porsche 917 LH "Psychedélique" (Hippie car)

1971 Porsche 917/20 "Pink Pig"

1969 Ferrari 312 P Spyder

1970 Ferrari 512 S Coda Lunga

1971 Ferrari 512 M Penske Sunoco

 

these won't come back again as Paul has lost everything in the fire (I was lucky to find the 312 P Spyder a few weeks ago)

Likewise:

1969 Ferrari 312P coupe

1970/71 Porsche 917 LH (three-Hippy, Martini, & Gulf)

1971 Ferrari 512M

1955 Jaguar D-type long nose (actually Dragon Model)

1968 Mclaren 6B Penske

And when I think of the times I had the Cunningham C5R and the Chaparral 2F in the cart and didn't pull the trigger.....

Here's a few of mine,

 

 

Every part is still on the sprues! A couple of bits are only just hanging on, so the next time I open the box I might find parts adrift.

 

 

I really like the early Monogram kits.

 

 

 

This early dealer display is probably my favorite of the lot...

 

 

There's mint unbuilt kits in the boxes. The built models are reissues or rebuilds.

 

 

Johan kits are rare over here in the UK, sometimes I get lucky...

I forgot my Teapot Graphics/John F. Johnson 1962 Ferrari SP resin kit (got this in 1993) 

and a very old (ca. 1966) FROG kit of a Lola T70 Spyder (was a half-built gluebomb snatched on ebay) which seems to be a kit made out of a slotracer = very crude:
