diecast

[Guest]

This is a bit out of the ordinary for this forum but over the years
I have tried collect a diecast car of any thing I may have worked
on. I just scored a Ronny Young/Ron Ackers "Wizard" funnycar.

I helped build the truck for that team back in 1994-95. I remember
it because it was the only green truck we ever built and we built it
either right before or right after we did Shirley Muldowney's. They were
sitting one in front of the other on the production line.

Post up some pictures, would be great to see some of them.

One of these days, I will make an attempt to get some pictures.
I've only got about 50 diecast cars. I only buy ones that I have a either
built a truck or trailer for or have done repair work on or have had some other
relationship with.

There are roughly 175 names on my "customer list" but most were sportsman
class racers that never had diecast cars made for them. Plus, I mostly get
the small scale (1/64) I found out a long time ago that the bigger ones take
up way to much room.

I am still hoping that someday, someone will put out a version of one of Schifsky's
cars or one of Doc's cars or purhaps a series of or superstockers like Rick Johnson's
or Dan Zrust's cudas.

I just added a Frankenstude to the collection. The only connection i ave
to this one is that Carey Weisner was painting for us during the same time
he was doing some of the body work on the Stude.
