1/64 Model Collectors Thread

[Cano]

Your oldest car is the Hot Wheels Ferrari 308. Most valuable would be the Matchbox Premier Viper or the Siku, but none of them are worth that much. Nice taste, still. Needs muscle cars and hot rods now.

Also, you really should restore the GT1.

 

[Beeblebrox237]

Yeah, that GT1 has been with me since I was about three, so it's seen a lot. Unfortunately I haven't the tools or resources to restore any of my cars.

You should send it to Mexico for Cano classic hot wheel restoration services.

The only catch is you may be buying stolen cars.

Mainly why I haven't purchased one yet...

I'm going to jail. Can't guarantee I won't give you up as the accomplice.

A simple repaint is quite easy to achieve, give the Customizing thread a read (:

 

[Beeblebrox237]

I will, thanks.

Dude, look up. You already posted those.

Who's hacking my account?

He's running out of stuff to show and is afraid to admit it.


(picture flood in 3, 2, 1)

The Scuds look so much nicer than the F430 castings...


BTW, I got the Merc C-Class, Jason. ku ku ku

 

[a6m5]

I love the selection of the cars here, also the couple of batches you posted on the last page. 👍

Who cares about the XJ40 when you have 7 Road Racers coming your way?

 

[Cano]

Yeah I know but come on that thing has eluded me for YEARS now.

 

[VspecZR1GT2RS89]

I need a ten-second thread!

*Edit: Oh yeah, nice secret th there Andy. 👍 I'd be really impressed if I didn't find TWO of them.

Because ten seconds or less I'm free.

But I need a ten-second car now....

 

[Sonygamer455]

Man i need that Jaguar! I can never get enough of them ex Corgi's! Im hoping Kit Kringle will bring more soon, more the better.

 

[Cano]

This place is dead-dead, so I'll just post old images:

$uper and regular 57 Plymouth Fury TH.

Found them both hangin' in the pegs, the $uper in front of the regular.

 

[diabolicwyvern]

I have several of those Jags...

RANDOM PICTURE TIME​

These came in mail, but cards were a but mangled

 

[Sonygamer455]

@Cano Give me those!!!!!! Love the paint!👍

@Diabolic Man i got two of those Tall Ryders! Love them things! I should do a custom of one!💡

 

[diabolicwyvern]

Took this picture outside a BP station on the way home from work yesterday.

 

[Sonygamer455]

I see one of them almost everytime i go to church on sunday and it has a wood design on the back! Looks good as new!

My dad told me that his brother used to have one of those when was really little, sadly i don't remember. My cousin has a realistic scale model of it to.

I found those as well. 1 $super and no less than three regulars.
I bought two of the regulars and the super, so I was nice enough to leave one for some grubby kid to eventually destroy.

 

[CodeRedR51]

So that green NSX Speed Machines I bought from the dude on HWC, he sent me that one AND the red one. 👍

But...I already have the red one. Anyone here need it?

 

[Anathema]

Sir Cano... Noticed I had this floating around. About how much do you think it's worth?

 

[diabolicwyvern]

@Fireemblem- I'm not Cano, but your bug is worth to a collector maybe $10 in the condition. Its a Wisconsin Toy Company promo from the early 80s. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the last mass produced car to arrive with redlines.

Here's a recent sale.

.................

Another last second bid Ebay impulse arrived today. I knew Id have a gap at work so I brought the package and took pics! Even used some labels I found in the store room.

 

[AOS-]

Elwoody's looking smooth.

Also, Batch G's 1973 Firebird and 1959 Impala recolours @ Lamley

Glad I blacklisted the Firebird.

 

[Theace37]

Sir Cano... Noticed I had this floating around. About how much do you think it's worth?

Hmmm.. this is from the 80s and if it was perfect condition it would be about $10. But in that shape maybe $7 :/

 

[Sonygamer455]

@Diabolic I like all those right there!

 

[CodeRedR51]

New Mystery cars hitting Walmarts, keep an eye out if you're interested. Only one Japanese casting in the 12 that are available and it's the Infiniti G37. Will be picking that one up.

 

[Sonygamer455]

Interesting, i will be on the lookout for it.

By the way your new avatar makes me laugh! 👍

 

[diabolicwyvern]

@FireEmblem -- I have to disagree with Theace on this one.

See my post above or

see here for a filler value

And here for collector value.

Ebay sold listings are great at detecting market value.

 

[Sonygamer455]

I imagine auctions can determine how much a vehicle is truly worth.

I'll take it. This will be my first Speed Machines though.

 

[Sonygamer455]

Hah. Whomever painted their Road Racer 935 wasted their car now that there's going to be a Flying Customs version eventually. Now we can all customize one for ourselves.

Are you planning on doing a custom of that Porsche?
