Dude! That's awesome!
I wish I could take a picture of all my die cast Mustangs! My collection of Ulrich tractor trailers is getting pretty large too. Man are they getting expensive too!
Nice display Ken!

Guys, Within a few days, I'll have a few pictures (hopefully) of some items I took in as a consignment sell for a friend) so, for those of you looking for trains and even automobiles, I'll have a few to sort through! 
And will be priced to sell!

Nice collection, Ken. I have that Maisto Jag in silver. I like the green better.

I'm not a big fan of the early Superfast tires either. That's specifically why I only have one of them. Because the wheels on them were terrible and bent really easily. I learned from that experience and never bought another early Superfast car.

My thoughts too! And with the skinny front tires, no front bumper, and that stance, it also resembles a gasser.
The steering wheel's on the wrong side though, Ken!
