very nice, congratulations. i'll post a picture of my collection soon, but yours is bigger anyway. greetings, vincent
I have a few (about 100) 1:64 Hot Wheels, Matchbox, Johnny Lightning, but a lot of 1:64 and 1:87 Minichamps F1 cars (Senna, Schumacher, Irvine, Prost, etc). About 30 are Ferrari. Also have all of the Hot Wheels F1 cars and pitcrews in 1:64 (1999-2004), the 6 different Hot Wheels Hall of Fame cars, and about 30 Ferrari slot cars in HO scale. Rob, you have unique colored cars. I have only the basic colors, but you have some pinks, greens, etc.
A lot of these were custom painted by friends of mine for me. Some were custom painted by me. Some were even customized by friends or me. One of the 330P4's in now an open top, one 456M has a nitrous bottle and surf boards, there is a 355 GTS Challenge in there, and the list goes on. I'll post some close-up's of some of the custom's later if anyone is interested.
456 with surfboards: I was thinking, those aren't surfboards on the back of that blue car. Very cool. The Hall of Fame cars are my favorites, though some people don't like them. If you are interested in increasing your collection, let me know. I am trying to lighten my load for a move next year.
One of the ones I like the most is my Chrome Illusion F40... 7 different colors can be seen in the paint.
Yes, I meant I painted it. It is a 1:64 Hot Wheels Enzo that was red. I could not paint sheilds on it because I am not that talented (yet).
Funny, I have a big 1:64 HW collection, but never saw this thread until I searched "1:64" just now. The reason I was looking for a thread like this is that I picked up a new 1:64 Hot Wheels at Wal Mart this weekend... Its a 575 GTC. Looks like people are already selling them on ebay, but Wal Mart was the first time I had seen it. Image Unavailable, Please Login
I like the new 575 GTC so much I have already customized two of them. I'll post pics when the clear coat dries on them.
OOH...! OOH...!!! i need one of those...! i don't have one of those yet...! Gotta have it...! Guess where i'll be going this weekend...?!? WAL-MART...!!! i've got a respectable 1:18 collection, but nowhere near 100... Now if i count all the ones i have that AREN'T Ferraris, well, then, that's a different story...
Okay so I was lazy. I waited several days...But...here are the two 575 GTC'c I just finished... (Though I may strip them and redo them since I am not to happy with the end finish) Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
