My displays
Well...if you insist
Here is my pride and joy!
Caterpillar display was bought and so were the individual displays but the rest were hand-made and painted by me, with plexi-glass covers cut to my measurements. It sure paid off!

very nice collection there. Where did you get the glass display case. I would love to have something like that.

Here are some more pics but these are a bit old. I re-did one of the 4x4 display cases and i need to take current pics. I have over 300 of these 1/18ths but currently have 273 out on display. I have room available for an additional 37 cars, then i'm at "maximum display room". It's gonna suck to run out of room.

The big display case you see is 6'x6'. I built it into the wall in my downstairs office and found glass doors from an old store display case. I was kinda lucky that the doors were almost as big as the opening i had to work with. As for the smaller individual 4'x4' glass display cases, i picked up 2 of 'em from when Service Merchandise went out of business. They were store fixtures that they sold off. You can usually find good deals on stores closing up. They sell everything in the store, including light fixtures.

Got these from Milezone today, took longer to get here because of the holiday but well worth it!
Here's an extra photo I took of the two JL modern versions of the BOSS
Here's a pic of a full scale Mustang owned by HWCs own Bud BKalland!
