Aaugh, I wish I just filed an unpaid case on that Spanish buyer when I had the chance to.

Because I sent a request to cancel a transaction, I can't cancel it on my own since he decided to no longer respond to anything anymore. He left me hanging. Can't even be a nice guy about it lol. Well, so long as he doesn't randomly send payment, I'll just hang onto the lots again.

These pics are fantastic @a6m5. Looking at them is thrilling and incredibly dangerous.

I decided to commit one of my displays solely to TLV. It is not all the TLV I have, but it is a good variety. Here it is:



It will still have to change when some of the others arrive.

Here are the other two:

I'm contemplating bidding on the item for Jarrod,

Ftfy, I believe that's what you meant to say. :D:tup:

Realise those are hard to come by but $37, 23 bids and still six days to go? :crazy:! Yeah, best of luck bidding on that.
 
:lol: dude, he is the Lamley blog, practically.
well damn, that's awesome! Cano, i'm going to make you very jelly later. Very. In my usual fashion.
 
Since this page is fairly new, I'll post all the pictures of those cars I bought now.

The Cougar's hood opens, the GTO changes color depending on the temperature of water you throw it in, and the Shelby looks so much better in person.

I was thinking on opening them, but I have nowhere to put them. Any ideas?

Bel-Air I'm guessing.



RIBBA+on+wall.jpg


Make like cool kids and display it dust-free.
Bel-Air is probably the only thing it could be. The Impala wasn't out in 53, and even if it was, it wouldn't have been that tall. I just think it looks funny when it just lists the makes.

And how much are those? That would be perfect.
 
$20 RIBBA frames at IKEA.




Each sold separately. Partition grids not included. Self-assembly may be required.

I have these too, unfortunately if you have to keep putting cars in/out of it the little metal tabs on the back start to break off. I wanted to try and modify them for front opening though, just haven't got around to it.

Just wish I could afford Carney cases.
 
I already broke two on one frame. I hope to whomever I won't decide to move cars around anymore. :lol: Only thing that isn't so great is how they can't fit wider cars. I'm sure a few of my side mirrors have lost its paint.
 
Alright, I'm going to just buy a plank of wood, some nails, and brackets. I'll come out much cheaper, and it's impossible to break unless you're trying to.
 
Presentation...

...points...

...go down 5 levels. :p

If you don't trust your handy work, you can get one of these babies.
Pshh, who needs smooth cut marks? I'd be using this to cut it anyway:

But seriously, I'm so clumsy, I'd lose a hand with that. It'd be best to just buy one, how expensive can a simple shelf be?

But then the cars sit out in the open where they get dusty as hell.
