I just relocated so please put in as much detail as you can.

TIA !!!
MODERN TOYS in new market, STARMARK in elgin road & WONDERLAND TOYS in gariahat are the places.

An American Classic.

Here's a 1949 Buick Roadmaster Convertable. This is a 1:32 National Motor Museum Mint. Good Detailing.

Thanks Guys.

@zibby and dussey nice collection of classics.

@zibby. I have the same Cadillac Eldorado Seville 1:18 in my collection too. Or may be a little different. Got to check.

OT: I need to improve on keeping track of my collections. Very easy to miss in midst of 100's. Sometimes I have ended up buying two of exact same cars.

Thanks, siddvi.
I have the same problem too, keeping track. Nowdays, I photograph them as and when I get them so that they get catalogued and its easy to post pictures too.

the decals are not stickers, i got them from the net & printed them. some 1:32 models don't, specially the centy models.

here are some more pictures with the rally mitsu.
