This original 1/24 Monogram Ferrari body was also re-released as a model kit. This original is really clean.

1/24 Cox Lotus. This has got to be one of the most popular slot cars ever produced! Through my years of collecting I have bought and sold a bunch of these! This one is a pretty clean build.....I've seen many that weren't!

A nicely painted 1/24 clear Ferrari body mounted on a Cox Chaparral chassis. I just like this one.........

1/24 K&B Chaparral. This one looks like it was used and loved. The chassis is original, complete, and clean.

1/24 Cox Cheetah. The body is almost complete, just missing the side pipes, and headlight covers. It has a very nice chassis and the correct wheels.

1/24 Revell Corvette Stingray. A very clean and complete example of an early production car from Revell.

I don't consider the Strombecker 1/32 cars to be great slot cars. But some of them do look pretty good. I think this really clean Ferrari looks pretty good!

This flagman figure was painted and detailed by Larry Anderson and sent to me from Canada.

Oh yeah.....Aurora Thunderjet 500 HO slot cars....My favorite! Two new in the box, Mustang 2+2 fastback Tuff Ones! One new in the box Ford J Flamethrower, has working headlights and taillights. And one new in the box Corvette Hardtop Vibrator. Vibrators were the precursor to the Thunderjets.

Aurora Flamethrower Cobra GT a.k.a. the Daytona Coupe. New in the box.

1/32 Monogram Ferrari F1. Complete, unpainted, and in very good condition!

This Strombecker 1/32 Ferrari GTO is in here mostly because I like those bullet wheel nuts! It is a clean example of an old Strombecker, but honestly it IS those wheel nuts that got it into my display case!

1/24 Cox GT40. The body on this car is a little rough, but the chassis is pretty clean.

1/24 Monogram Chaparral 2D coupe. Monogram re-released this Chaparral in model kit form, but this is an original slot car version. This car features a working rear wing.

I don't have many "Thingie" cars in my collection. They have never appealed to me all that much. This one is in my case because even though it is used, it is in remarkable shape. Normally the bodies on used Astros are all cracked and broken. The body on this one is actually pretty decent. The chassis is exceptional.

Cox La Cucaracha in 1/24 scale. The King of the "Thingies"! Through the years I have had SO many of these cars! They have become so valuable (even used) that as I got them I would just resell them. Somehow I managed to hold onto this one. This is a really good color for a Cuc (to me, any color but orange is a really good color!).

As a kid, this was my all time favorite "Thingie", Monogram's Snake! The motor is missing, but other than that it is pretty original and complete.

I like this 1/24 scratchbuilt car for its detail work and simple chassis construction. The little things are what I think makes the scratchbuilt cars so cool. They are true one-of-a-kind creations! Somebody put in a lot of work and love to create these cars. It's even better when it is obvious they have been raced! This one has cool details like the exhaust system, and the paint on the driver's helmet...And yes, the driver appears to be a BIG guy!

This is one of my more recent acquisitions, the illusive Cox Chaparral 2E with the working wing. This is the La Cucaracha version. I got this car in an HO slot car collection purchase. This car was in pieces, mixed in with a big box of Aurora Thunderjet track. I found all the pieces except for the roll bar/headrest piece that fits behind the driver's head. I also found another complete Cox La Cucaracha Ferrari, a La Cucaracha Ferrari Coupe body, and a Cox 1/24 gas powered Pontiac GTO tether car in the same box!

1/24 Monogram Midgets are hard to find is good used shape. The small detail parts are usually broken off if the car has been run at all. This one is in pretty good shape considering it has been used. Obviously it wasn't used much, and run carefully.

The second shelf down in my display case is where the 1/24 cars start. Like the 1/32 cars, the 1/24 cars I collect are for the most part cars I just like, and my reasons vary widely! They don't have to be perfect, in fact I prefer cars that are not perfect! I love the ones that have been used and abused. I like the idea that I can pull any of my cars out of the case, throw on a fresh set of tires and run it without worrying about damaging it!

This is a DuBro bodied Scarab on a slightly modified Cox magnesium chassis. I like the paint.....

1/24 AMT hardbody Mustang coupe. Whoever built this one did a really nice job on the paint! I also like the way the body was lowered on the chassis.

This 1/24 Buick stock car is from the Norton Gaston collection. Model car body mounted on a modified production chassis, powered by a 36D motor. Norton and his father Jerry used this color scheme on many of the stock cars they built.

Here's another 1/32 car that falls into my DKWW (don't know where or when) I got it category. I have no idea who built this car but it is nicely done!

I don't know who built this 1/32 Ferrari, but I like it!

Racer built some of the most beautiful 1/32 cars! They were also pretty good performers with chassis based on Slot.it components. This Gulf livery P68 Fords is one of my favorites!

This 1/32 Cox Cheetah has a little bit of a background story. When I was about 13 years old I got this car in kit form. I assembled the car, but I never ran it on a track. That was about 1968. Around 1981 I traded this car to my friend Gary "Goose" Gossett for HO cars. When Goose passed and I bought his collection from his son Steven and I got this Cheetah back. I doubt it will be leaving my collection again..

This 1/32 Scalextric Lister Jag is probably the oldest Scalextric car I have. It has the typical styling of an early slot car. I like it!

This old Strombecker 1/32 Ford GT40 is in my collection just because I like the way the original owner painted and detailed it. It is different from the other GT40s I've seen. The paint and detailing is pretty well done. Unfortunately I have no idea who did the work.

Yeah, it doesn't look much like it, but I am making progress! I'll be posting more photos in the next few days. I want to document as much of my collection as I can, someday it will all be gone from my world. Right now this display case contains 112 cars. Most are 1/24 cars.

Here's a Strombecker Ferrari someone painted and detailed. It's really clean and they did a pretty good job! Unfortunately I have no idea who completed the work on this one.

This is an example of a 1/32 Cox La Cucaracha that came with a clear body. It appears the original owner completed some detailing of the body. What I like best about these cars are the original magnesium wheels! The chassis on this one is really clean and original!

My hunt for one of these Aurora 1/32 Corvairs started many years ago. While looking through stuff at an antique show, I cam across one of these Aurora Corvairs. It was missing the front and rear detail parts (headlights and the rear body panel). I figured I would be able find these parts on Ebay easy enough, so I bought it (it was cheap!). Well I would bid on incomplete and broken cars on Ebay, just for the parts I needed. Every time I was outbid, and sometimes these "junk" cars would go for almost $100! Then one morning this 99% complete car (missing rear bumper) popped up for a "Buy-It-Now" price of around $80. I had to buy it!
