Haha. Little did they know they can outfit any rig pretty cheaply with those from an online retailer.
I saw one go for over $500,000.00 at the Auburn Auto Auction in Indiana. But will my '96 Caravan be worth anything??

I collect 1/24th scale Die cast race cars, mostly Drag Racing but I do have a few NASCAR.
I have about 50 cars right now.
I have some of the 1/64th cars but I like the larger ones better. I havn't gotten any new ones for a few years those, too much fishing stuff out there
Posted by Doug Allan (Member # 2247) on :
all 1:24 stuff here.. that red car with white top (3rd from left) is a 1960 Impala. The blue one below it is a '67.
I was just in KrispieKreme yesterday & I told them they created a monster when they gave me an old 1:24 delivery sedan with their logo on it as a promotional gift when they opened.

I collect 1/24's also...mostly Nascar.
Recently I have been building a series of stock cars that my cousin raced back in the late 70's...
His name was Punly Manor and he raced all over the midwest and in Canada. Unfortuntely his was killed in a highway accident late 1979. Never hurt on the racetrack...ironic! Then his dad was killed in a head-on about a week and a half later (other drivers fault). Not something you get over.
I have two of the six cars that he raced completed so far. I was a teenager and helped with these cars sometimes.
I am doing all the graphics myself in Illustrator and then printing them on water slide decals.
This particular car probably took me longer to build then the original car did. I have no pictures to go by so I am winging it kind-of...Winter hobby!
now all I need is very small red sand!
outta here!
