hot wheels and other type collectable stuff

[skull]

l started seriously collecting 1/64 and some bigger vehicles and other
memorablia after my work ending injury.

l am posting some pic of part of the ''DUST COLLECTOR'S'' in the den.

the yellow license plate is from the movie of Shirley Muldowny '' Heart Like A Wheel'' when they filmed in Olympia, Washington in 1982. several friends cars and trucks were shown driving around in the background and the 4-door dodge the was ''Connie colletta's"" belong to the local speed shop owner.

l also pulled some of mine and dad's trophy's from when we raced, some in the den and a few in the shop.

the dairy delivery hot wheels l customize, differant paint, wheels and tires, decals and some body mods. a few other car/trucks that l had doubles of or old ones l got just to customize are mixed in with the mess on the wall[ddev.

l also have a bunch of car/sport related non-vehicle things.

LETS SEE SOME OF YOUR'E ''DUST COLLECTOR'S''[P[cl

I'm a collector of collections but a lot of auto related memorabilia. I have to keep it out in the shop though.

i thought i had a lot of hot wheels. i'm starting to collect old tools, partly because i need tools and partly because i like the old stuff quite a bit. a lot of them just feel different. got a turner (?) gas blowtorch that needs a few small parts. lots of plombs, an old craftsman toolbox i'm cleaning up. quite a few little things. i like lighters and knives too. i'd put some pictures up but my sets are small.

Nice collection for sure. Wish I still had all the Hot Wheels I had when I was a kid. I could retire.
I started collecting NASCAR collectables back in the late '80s hoping they'd be worth something in 20yrs. Well most of them didn't gain much value so I gave them to my nephews to enjoy.

Had a customer that buys and sells Hot Wheels turn me on to something I didn't know- there are a dozen cars that are limited editions, they are called Treasure Hunts. I'm now hooked, everytime I go into a store that carries Hot Wheels I'm looking for 'em. Found two so far....

couple more, craftsman jigsaw, devillbiss spray gun (being rebuilt), old oil injection unit for air lines.

I used to collect stuff, then I finally figured out what I really liked best was finding it. So now I call mine a revolving collection and make money acquiring and reselling. We junk "curators" have a thing we call honeymooning. When we get something new we like to keep it around for a while before it moves on.
