    I have two of each of the rubber tired "dirt wheels" Hot Wheels. Two of the blue and two of the black. They are very rare and hard to find. Mine are still in the packaging though.

    I prefer the 1:18 scale diecast though. I have 47 of the Muscle Machine cars, I have every model but the '62 Vette. I have about 60 of them in the smaller scale.

    I have an Ivan Stewart signed AutoArt 1:18 scale baja 1000 Tundra as well as several other specialty/movie cars. The Cuda from Phantasm, the Lincoln from the movie "The Car" and boxes of others.

    I have about 45 of th 1:18 scale cars in cases mounted on the wall in the living room.

    I used to have in excess of 50 1:18th scale models. I've pared my collection way down to about 30.

    I'll have to snap pictures if anyone is interested.

    I paid about $500 for my 1:12 scale Dodge Ram! My mom about killed me for it! This is my So Real Concepts Chevy Silverado. It's one of 488 I think. I got it for about $230. It probably wasn't worth almost $600 like all the other ones I've seen because it was taken out of the box and someone gave it a weathered look.IMG_8812.jpg

    She’s a little rough but for $8.
    I should of bought the other one also but the front grill was crushed on the left corner. It was $5 and now I’m kicking myself! Into the collection of crap wife 2.0 will need to get rid of when I die!
