This thread has some real legs! My fleet has changed significantly since the beginning of the thread, I need to post some fresh shots. Unfortunately most of my fleet is here:

I know! I'm pretty bent out of shape about it but both my kids are coming home from school in May. I was only expecting one of them. Now I have to have the room cleared out for the second kid. He'll be here all summer so I'm going to be working in a different part of the house...we'll see how well that goes over.

Yeah that kinda looks like a deep freeze doesn't it? It's actually an under the stairs closet. Those bins have about 6 cars each in them. Still need to figure out what to do with the rest of my stuff.

This is my small collection. These are some of my original cars. The Fox, Falcon and a couple of others are in storage.

These are some of my projects.
Polishing my Buggy Champ. Still working on the rear and building a roll cage. The gear box is a PITA to polish by the way. RC10 parts to make some more customized cars. My sons and my current runners. We both now run the T4's with Castle brushless. The Evader is what my son started with and I think it will end up with my nephew. A couple of my planes on the burner. I have a few others in storage. The cub has about 100 hours on it and the P-51 is an 8 year work in progress due to starting it before marriage and kids.

Very Nice Collection and well stocked too. Johnny

Here is my fleet. Excuse the mess my shed/man cave does not get the services of the cleaning lady. The E-Maxx and the Mini LST are my wife's. Its easier to feed my addiction if I give her a taste of it . There are two rc10ts, two rc10ds, two team cars, one graphite, and one gold pan. The truck with the flame job is a RS4and a Revo beside it. The helicopter is just another in a long list of diversions to help me avoid responisibility.

My wife actually picked up a perfect shelf for my vintage cars. Now I need to find some low profile stands and paint some bodies. Just have to finish up my B3 for the top shelf

your lucky im only aloud 2 cars in the living room i try from time to time to sneak an extra one in and find it dumped back in the hobby room later in the day

Ah ha - I should show some of your pictures to my 'better' half... she thinks that I have a bad R/C addiction with this modest selection...

I've only just made these shelves... so my collection is sort of together, missing from these two shots is a Mardave Marauder (British 1/18th I/C) A Losi XXT, A JRX2 & my RC12
