Okay, so, I’ve had 15 of the original 16 Redlines for over 20 years, & it has always bugged me that I was so close, only needing the Mustang to complete the set, but I was just never willing to fork out the (to me) big bux to own it.
I’ve been MIA here for nearly 2 years, but like a bad penny, I keep coming back...
Started out with this worn out old Ertl Dick Tracymobile, which was missing all 4 tires, & both bumpers were broken.
Got my package from Fintail’s Fantastic Diecast Giveaway this morning!
My first real custom! Started out with this chipped up, tired ol’ Ertl Batmobile:
Finally got lucky & snagged four of the cars I’ve been looking for!
Just a quick & dirty (literally) snapshot of some Mopar muscle in flat black. I should’ve dusted them off....
From 1999, an oldie, but a goodie, the Porsche 911 GT1-98!
Can Anyone Identify These For Me?
Never in my wildest dreams did I expect to ever locate one of these in the wild!
Today's Artwerx, based on my recent acquisition of Hot Wheels' Pedal Power. :-)
Tryin' to improve my photography a bit here. These are my first shots with an artificial background. Constructive criticism, comments, opinions & suggestions welcome, especially from all you dudes with the outstanding macro skillz I've seen on here!
Thanx to RockyClock for posting the pic of the the Mystery Model 1/4 Mile Coupe! Once I saw what an amazing looking ride it was, I had to have it, & lady luck smiled on me this past weekend! Was able to find it at Wally World, along with the '09 Corvette Concept from 2013!
Had to take the daughter to the dentist this morning, so while she was in there, I made a quick run to the nearby Wally World & snagged the Tarmac Attack, the only one in this year's easter series that really interests me. Got home & immediately customized it by removing the "Easter 15" tampo. Actually managed to do…
Well, it WAS a nice lookin' model, mint, in fact...
Since my original Hi-Rakers 40s Woodie in this color was pretty rough, I decided to crack open one of those 30th anniversary repros that came out in '98, and replace my ragged old original.
Okay, so, it's not enough for me to just to buy the whole set of 8 Star Wars cars, just cuz they're STAR WARS, even though I don't actually even care much for any of these particular castings.
