Bugger it. I'm so excited about my scores this past week, I couldn't wait for the Ebay goodies to arrive
.
They say "A week's a long time in sport". Well, a week in diecast can be just as long too
.
I'm not saying I haven't found anything previously, because I have. It's those finds that really stir the diecast juices and make all the long drives, with nought to show, worthwhile
. A Super TH here. A HTF there. It keeps us going back time after time after time
.
What can I say. I've had one of those weeks I only dream of
. And it cost me a bundle
.
Check out what I can only describe as the Mother of all Motherloads(for me at any rate
)
First up, a bit of light reading.
A cool Aussie Mopar decorated Stubbie holder(for a Mopar nut friend in the States).
Can't b!tch about this lot.
Nor can I about these.
These just Rock 'n'Roll.
You'd be right in thinking, that's enough right there, which it is. But patience good friends, there's more
.
Now before I cut to the
chase, I must give kudos to the person who brought some of the following to my attention, Namely my daughter
.
While perusing the pegs, she hands me a blister and says, "Look dad! Gold wheels", to which I innitially thought, "oh no, not another pimp mobile"
.
Then it hit me. "Gold wheels. Black paint with gold highlights. Gold interior. WHOA!!!!! My first.............
.....and subsequent 2nd, 3rd, & 4th, M2 chase pieces. She just kept handing me these cars with gold wheels
The two reg TH's ain't to shabby either
.
Not only did I score all that, but my wife bought me this.....
It's weeks like this that make me get up, get dress, and hit the road for that elusive casting, week after fortnight after month after year
.
