P.S.-they also have a "model car,show and swap" at a local(Chicago suburbs) Holiday Inn, frequently. Haven't checked any out,yet. Also found a couple of new,Hotwheels(little ones)308's,inclding a Red/Black GTS,a black GTB,and a silver GTB.Hard to find any 308 stuff, But,NEVER see Boxers stuff! Much harder to find! |

I found a couple 308GTSi models at a Chevy/Vettefest that is held in Chicago,every March and November. They have a car show,parts/swap section,and some vendors. Found a diecast 288GTO,and a couple different size 308's.And 2 "put together" plastic models of 308's,that have a picture of Magnum P.I. on the box,so,these must have been siiting around somewhere for 20 years.(the boxes were still "shrink-wrapped" and a little "faded".) Haven't built em yet. But,check out any car "swap meets" shows,etc... There was also a "die cast" guy with some older Ferrari models. I got a 1:18 scale Ferrari GTO,new,for $15.00! |

Man it must have taken a lot of glue to make that really big model. It even looks like it has working doors. What is the engine detailing like? Pete |

I have ordered a 1/18th scale BB512 die cast model as I have been unable to find a BB512i model. Does anyone know where I can find a BB512i model ? |

Jordan, You're not going to find a whole lot of 512BB models in the stores, no manufacturer currently has a kit in production. I suggest Ebay, link to the car models below http://listings.ebay.com/aw/plistings/list/all/category2580/index.html Carl |
