Re: MusclecarJohn (John Lipori's) Diecast Collection
Thanks guys...and thanks Bruce for posting them.
Yes,I've been collecting for years but only since we've moved into our home a year ago that I could finally display them. I told the wife It'd take something real special to be produced for me to collect it...with two rooms of cars,I'm just flat-out of space.

Nice stuff John! Those can get oftly costly! Been collecting for years myself... cool! [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, I'm burdened with about 600 of the damned things too. No room to display them and the value has dropped to about 25% of what I have invested. Just another of my Misguided Opportunities!  I love the Side-by-Side Novas though!

Re: MusclecarJohn (John Lipori's) Diecast Collection
Great collection John....nice to know there's more 'sick minded' lads out there? . I'm long out of room too w/ hundreds of toys....mostly old pressed steel trucks and 30's/40's stuff w/ the 'streamlined look'. .

Re: MusclecarJohn (John Lipori's) Diecast Collection
Here's just a few of my old car kits. Man, they take up a LOT of room! Lately I've been using eBay to convert many of them to cash for a rebuild of my Camaro's 396. I have some diecast stuff too but it all sits hidden in boxes out in the garage and attic! I'd love to have a display room like John's.
