Rolling along, I found this repainted Mini Lindy #32 truck to my liking, so I bought it.

Hi AMC_Gremlin_GT,
I really like this truck! It looks like very realistic.
I have a few cars from this maker.
Thanks for sharing.

Nice truck. It actually looks pretty good. Anyway, my AOTW is another H0 scale display case I got for my birthday. It was made from scratch by my parents for me.And probably the coolest thing about it is the fact that it can hold both H0 scale locomotives and N scale locomotives.Oh, and what I did with the other display case since I have the one I'm about to show you now is that I sold it for $45, therefore making a profit on it.

Stephen, that was very nice of your parents to make that display case for you! Especially since on an occasion or two they have seemed a little less than understanding about your hobby pursuits.

I took a stab at making a 1950's television for one of my shop's windows. It doesn't look terrible...

Have to admit one thought though, after reading you sold your other case: I don't think you can ever have enough display cases! Of course I seem to think all my stuff needs to be in a display case...
