    That’s the bottom of that tub. I have two small ones that don’t have lids and are very dusty. Look to be all vw’s. The tub under it has a few larger scale cars I’ll dig into tomorrow.

    Talked to my wife this morning (night for her) said she didn’t see any hot wheels but did see some rats for sale at the market. I know it’s a toy thread but thought this was funny

    I wanted to do something with the popcorn ceiling in the hot wheels room but wife didn’t want a big mess. She actually told me to leave it alone when she left. Think I might go over it with those thin looking barn board kits. Going to look into that today while she’s gone.

    If you dont want to scrape it you can also skim coat it. But i like the the tongue and groove boards for a celling.

    Don’t want to scrape it because I know there will be patching and sanding. Same with skim coating it. Don’t want to make a huge mess

    My one problem is the little cubby hole or whatever you call it in the wall. There’s not a lot of room between the ceiling and the trim so it has to be thin. This has to be the chunkiest popcorn ceiling I’ve seen.

    This cubby had a lot of holes in it from the previous owner and from some cheap shelving I had put up when we bought the house. I put some barn board up to cover the holes and for looks. Plan on putting some better shelves up for some larger scale cars.

    The ff team transport and the altezza chase. Can’t justify spending $200 for those though.

    Think that would look cool but diamond plate wouldn’t be cheap.
