Since I’m not as funny as Jay and I have to work for a living….what?…..ok..ok….I’m sure Jay works very hard…I guess…it’s tough reading funny newpaper clips….ok…Sorry Jay, I have “substituted” this alternative method of obtaining the cars I’d love to own.

You all figured it out yet? I’m talking about models, scale diecast replicas. There is an entire industry out there that produces, imports and markets these items. Some of them are extremely well done.

Most of mine are Danbury Mint and GMP pieces, I do like what they produce, lots of details and they are affordable (around $100.00 each).

The Franklin mint produces cars, Greenleaf, Motormint, just to name a few.

It’s fun and affordable and they do increase in value. It’s gotten so popular that even the mainstream car magazines like Hemmings (they normally have at least one article in every Motor News edition), Mustang Monthly and Corvette magazine have articles that discuss this portion of the hobby and even rate the quality of individual brands and their offerings.

You can see a portion of my collection and some close of a 67 Mustang GT 350 at http://timsweet.wordpress.com/2010/02/20/when-you-just-have-to-have-that-classicmuscle-car-think-small/

I am from Holland, but i am a huge fan of the series.

So i would really like to have that box and car!!!
Is it still possible for me to buy it or get it somewhere?
I would also like to have more props from the series,
like mini busts and other things like that, i have also seen a comic book or something?

I will wait for your response
thank you very much,

Amy
