Not sure if I should post this here...got a call from a friend yesterday who said that he was moving out of town and wanted to know if I was interested in any of his collection..hell yeah..here are a pictures of the ones that I've bought..(see update below) he says that there are more but he needs to dig them out..some of these cars I've never seen before so a little research is in order...we agreed on a single price for each car accross the board..so some I might of paid a bit much for while others were cheap..still it's funny how one day you are flush with cash the next day you're not..

Nice cars
The last is a Graupner Mercedes jeep but the chassi was made by Kyosho "Rally Sports"
The Cox is also Kyosho based "Mach Sports"

nice cars !I likey the triunmph

Are you kidding me ! It hasn't been one day and you already topped my find .........ten fold! Great score Pete !

Cheers Paul I'm obviously not going to keep them all so keep an eye on the BST section...I'm heading over to his place later today to see what else he's come up with..

damn thats a fantastic find, some guys have all the luck

I got dibs on the assult if it is one you are going to sell and the price is right

Always wanted one!

Very nice variety of cars there mate..... you look to have picked up quite an interesting collection! And with the cheap cost of postage NZ - AUS, you can have them here in no time!!!

Seriously though..... very nice!

i got my Bro one like the COORS car a few years back. parts are hard to come by, Good Buy!!!!!

I've just come back from the guys house who is selling the collection..he has at least 30 cars in mint condition most with boxes and all are very rare..so ignore the above pictures after seeing the rest of his collection I'm changing my mind on some of them..in saying that Dave is very reasonable with his prices..a couple of other cars worthy of note are a 1/12 scale Kyosho Mini from about 1983 unused with box..and another car which he claimed was the first mass produced rc car built in the USA it looks to be 1/12 scale and a bit like a funny car but with working tail and head lights...very very cool..

Very nice cars and buggies. I would be interested if they were available.

So are you going to buy the whole collection or just pieces of it?

Any chance he would let you take pictures of the collection so you could post it here for all of us to see? That would be cool!

I didn't know but he's got stuff already listed on ebay...but he would pull the auctions if he could get what he wants elsewhere..so no I'm not going to buy his whole collection just as much as I can afford...

Beautiful collection of cars! I love the assault. I have always wanted one of them. Takes me back to when I was a small kiddie as opposed to being a big one.

ill take the cox car off your hands
