Here are just a few other pics of the stuff i have, the vintage stuff i have is on the wall or in boxes, most of the stuff hanging on the wall or in boxes is new never used or unbuilt...the stuff on the shelves are a mix of some use some new builds...most of the stuff on the shelves is not as vintage as the stuff on the wall.

:shock: Please do me a favor, buy your friend a very large beer and make sure that it is a really good one. Incidentally, congratulations to this beautiful collection. The cat is now living in a very decent society. :)

nice stuff - you're a man of taste ;)

May I suggest you don't put all the weight of these cars on their tires, as this piano wire will leave some nasty marks on them rare rubber chunks !

You need to let us know all in detail what you have in there :mrgreen:
