    I bought some display cases for my 1:64 scale cars from a company called Mascar Displays. The company asked me to send some pics of my cases and they ended up putting one of the pics on their website - check it out:

    My "big" play car got in the picture too! The case on the right side of the Ford logo is reserved for station wagons only. Each case holds 65 cars.

    Nice! I guess with my budget, I should have started collecting the small scale vehicles. I'd probably have more than 8 or so by now if I had.

    Thanks! The cases have clear plastic covers which I removed for the picture due to the light reflection. These cases were the most cost-effective ones I could find. There are nicer cases which have mirrored backs and park the cars at an angle but they are pricey!

    I know the cars would be worth more if I left them in their packaging, but I can't help playing with them....each of them has taken at least one trip down my Hot Wheels drag strip - 24' of high speed terror!

    Motomike now that's a real MAN'S garage. Add a couple cars partially disassembled and more car parts and you have mine. I can't even get a camera in there. :camera:
    Jrw's looks more like an operating room at our hospital. I've got more car junk in the living room. :49:
    By the way, all cars of any size are made to be driven. That's why they have wheels.:rofl2:

    Scout nice collection. Now go play with your toys. Break one and you'll go to bed without your milk-n-cookies.

    MotoMike - I did see the TV up on the wall - now I'm jealous of your garage! My neighbors give me a hard time about keeping my garage clean too. You're right Model T - they got wheels, they get raced! I raced a kid in the grocery store parking lot on shopping carts a couple of nights ago - had to jam him into the curb to beat him into the store....

    Cool picture! I need to get me some of those display cases myself. 99% of my cars are out of the package. Such a waste to leave them in the package. I'll check out their site.

    The zombies were only one block over this morning before dawn! I saw the lights just off the highway this morning when I went out and the "SF"(Stalwart Films) road signs. :hide:
