Mike: You don't have enough stuff ..... you need at least another 7 years of solid collecting before you qualify as a serious collector!

Funny thing is there are guys with bigger collections than that out there. Those are the pictures I have been showing MY wife, but they are becomming less efective every day

Also, my favorite saying of "But honey, its the holy grail of quarterscale, its very rare" has finally stopped working. I tried the "I found this car I want to buy you" last night and almost got away with it
I just wanted to post these pics because I thought they were kinda funny looking. I hardly remember having so few cars although I am sure at the time I thought I had a lot. The purpose of having so many is actually so when I retire, I have a really good amount of stuff to play with and keep me busy. The down side is thats another 30 years away...
Jefflee, I just traded away a spare body I had. BUT contact this guy
fmurry8995@aol.com He originally made those bikes and I think he may still have the mold? Also for reference he makes the 34 ford fiberglass bodies and stuff and they are authorized through WCM!!

The web site. ---> oldtickers dot com
I have MANY more clocks than what is on the web site. I will take a few photos later.
Time to reduce the inventory too.
Being that Tammy has raced and met Shirley several times, she has a fondness for all
female related racing stuff.

I like those clocks. Pretty interesting works. I love to see the insides of them.
Since the topic was brought back up, here are some of the latest shots of my shop. Ben getting rid of a few machines to clean the place up. A lot has also migrated into the house...
