thanks guys! Username came from back in middle school (one of those - 'you can't make fun of someone that already made fun of themselves' names).
Anyway, have around 300 1/24th scale diecast, about 30 of which are danbury/franklin mint - a token amount of racing stuff. I grew up heavily involved with cars, and my dad found model cars a great way for me to be involved when I was young (too young to work on real cars) - learning their shape, etc.
He still gets me at least one model each year at Christmas for fun
I did have dreams of being an automotive designer, for which I even took classes for and I thank my dad for the inspiration - my model cars gave me this since youth, but I just turned out to be a Mech. Engineer instead, lol (more conservative path).
Lately I have been trying to replicate my personal cars in 1/18th scale, I'll post those later (just some old BMW stuff)
When I was younger, my dad and I did this with our family fun cars (a '02 orange firebird, a '78 red ferrari 308, and a gold '67 firebird).
I'm excited to see all that this site has to offer! Thanks!
Man, I've wanted to say that so many times but couldn't. Feels good to say it and not be rude! Haha
