Mike, There's a hobby shop that me and my son just got back from (paints, brushes, 70 Z/28, 69 shelby) that does have these NASCAR diecasts. Some of them are absolutely beautiful but the guy wants one of your nuts for them and I just won't pay it. $60-75 is way to much for that. I would pay half that amount but these freaking cars are awesome. I haven't seen any vintage cars but he has all of the new ones and Jarrets 88 UPS has caught my eye along with the #3 Goodwrench car of the late Dale Earnhardt. I built a Revell model of that one and I think from the shelf you can't tell the difference.

I walked into a shop in South Portland and this guy had lots of cars, but the prices were ludicrous. The 1/25's were in the $60-75 range,while the 1/18 NASCARS were From $100 to $200! The 1/64's were $15-25!

I'd like to see a Coors T-bird when Bill Elliot cleaned house in 85. I have a Maxwell House Bird from Sterling Marlin.
