My world is getting smaller as I get older. Trimmed down to Cyclekarts for a while
and again the last couple of years to a hobby I followed when I was just a wee lad
of 12 or so. Two years back into it and I've got about 60 to show for it. Need to build
a layout (Smallville) to display them properly. Denny G, Sandwich, IL

Denny, Great Display! Memories galore. I'm a very interested shopper for the real life TR3 your green one is based on. Sweet talked my bride into us using her Mother's wedding gift (cash) to buy a black berry vine covered TR3 from a farmer's field back in 1973. Lot's of smiles and miles with that one.

One of the benefits of getting Old, all the memories.

Keep making em and sharing Denny G.

Beautiful collection Denny! As always your attention to detail is evident in the quality of your builds. Your "Smallville" will look very cool! X2 for what RonR said on "Keep making em and sharing Denny G."! thumbs_up

Denny, you're building quite a collection. I also built a bus load of models when I was young. All my paper route and lawn mowing money kept me going.

When you get ready to build your Smallville town, check out

This young man does an amazing process to make his models look real,

I built tons of airplanes and ships when I was a kid back in the 50's Wayne. Then when I hit 15
I discovered Real cars, Bikes and Girls....and a bottle of beer snuck in there when ever we could get it.
All of them are long gone 'cept for one old broken P-51 mustang. dg

Theme is as I make my choice, I either owned it, drove it or wanted to own it Ron.
And that encompassed a whole bunch of cars and trucks. dg
