    I know I only have a few Ferraris, but read and see why!

    3 Years ago, myself being 16 years of age, I started to collect Burago model cars. You see the small collection of Buragos below took me almost 2 months of work to pay off. But I know it was worth every penny.

    Anyways 3 years ago my dad's medical office closed down and he handed me down all his models. All Franklin Mint classic car models. Oh my. What -- NOT A SINGLE FERRARI?? What was he thinking??

    Anyways, to this day, of all my cars my favorite remains the 250 Le Mans I have on the top right. I can't even dream of owning one, but they model's beauty alone keeps me happy just thinking about it!

    Pardon my babble, ON TO THE PICTURES!
    Cheers,
    -Cyrus

    The Royale in blue is the Coupe de Napolean right?

    When you get a chance, can you put a large pic of it with the engine cover opened

    Thanks in advance

    it's very interesting to see a pic of 5 ferraris and none of them red , Congratulations
    I wish my 456 would be green and that silver in both 550 & F50 looks great
    I'm sick and tired of most of my collection being red, everytime I got a chance of non-red models I get them.
    BTW italian models are good but japanese (Kyosho) F-models are far better
