Topic: Show Us Your Stuff

Bill's latest round of posting his impressive and unmatched collection has got me thinking we all should post our rare, unusual or favorite slot cars for documentation purposes and just for the fun of it. Taking Bill's lead, I will go first. I cannot match his knowledge or collection size.  The following are some of my more rare and unusual cars in no particular order.

Older and well used MRRC Gurney Eagle with what I believe to be a Monogram chassis

Race cars are neither beautiful nor ugly. They become beautiful when they win.

Re: Show Us Your Stuff

I like this idea Rico! This is cool! You have some really nice cars there!

I know Monte has some great old stuff! How about it Smooth? You've got nothing better to do!!!
