Hey all,
Haven't posted a car for COTW for a while so I thought I would kick things off this week with a Billboard car. This is a Scotties tissue car. Unfortunately it is just the shell.

Ooh, I like the mall flatcar and trailer, now if only I didn't have such disdain for my mail carrier.

This one's from yesterday's garage sale. It's my first and only Gilbert HO:
I've got a Revell from the same lot that is an interesting clone of this one. I'll post it another week.

Is it the coupler Ken? That's not uncommon for Model Power!
Remember when expectant Dads would pace in the waiting room, cigars at the ready? Now they assist with the cesarean and try not to faint!
This is a Model Power 40' G2 Steel Reefer for Muriel cigars. Thank goodness it doesn't smell like it. Pew!

| Haha, proves I'm no collector! I like the silver detailing. Silver is what it should've been as standard.
