My First Gen diecast, memorabilia, etc collection.

[clint w]

Figured I'd start a thread to add pictures of my collection as I aquire it. Picked up my first pieces this weekend. A 1:64 scale I bought at Walmart yesterday and a 1:18 scale I bought at the Goodguys car show in the swap meet today. Including a picture of the cabinet I built for my VW collection. Going to have to build something to display my Monte Carlo stuff.

Nice detail on the SS . When I collected die cast (mostly nascar) I focused on 1/8, but have 1/43, 1/24, and 1/64. I was at the local wallymart after your original post but they didn't have the Crow Monte 

 

PS. Old photo from the TV room. I'm downsizing the house at the end of the year so everything is getting boxed

Do you think these die cast SS’s are also cloned?

Asking for a friend…

Now pulling off that clone would take a lot of work......

Clint, I have that same exact 72 MC brochure.

Framed my Dealer poster and picked up a new diecast at a car show last weekend.
