Added something to the collection...

This came in the mail today...

It is a 1993 Ranger STX dealer promo. It has been in that box all of its life.

So why did you open it?

I mean it has been attached to the box its whole life, and still is. The box it comes in rolls out into a flat sheet. The ties around the axles have never been removed.

My best friend collects HotWheels. He has something like 3000 of them. Some worth more than $100.

I make fun of him...32 years old, and lives to find a rare HotWheel.

His 5 year old son is always saying..."Dad? Don't you think you have enough cars?"

That just aint right.

LOL! I don't collect HW cars, but I do collect JL cars. I have an Olds Cutlass from JL that is signed by the owner of the actual car that was used to model the 1:64 version. I also have some others including a Dodge D150, Ford Torino, and the like. I don't collect many Matchbox cars, but I do have a Limited Edition Bronco II that was made by Matchbox in '94. I also have some hard to find Hongwell 1:43 scale Silverados and Dodge Intrepids. I tend to go after the more realistic stuff.
