last night a buddy of mine who is a garbage man called and said he had a bag of models for me that someone had thrown out. i figured it would be the usual 90's camaros and nascar stuff. boy was i wrong !
i got a garbage bag full of stuff, all from the mid sixties to mid seventies - 1964 dodge polara , 1970 coronet, 1965 gran prix , awb mustang, awb nova , 1971 ventura, 1971 mustang, 1959 el camino , fiat gasser, willys p/u, willys coupe , T/D quicksilver , 50 merc ,49 ford plus a pile of pickups,vans and 57 chevys and more parts than i could use in a lifetime ! most of these cars are pretty complete, but theres other cars in pieces too . its going to take a while to inventory this stuff .its hard to believe in this ebay world that it was it was nearly lost to the trash incinerator

No doubt about that Chief! One of my friends gave me an original Ohio George Malco Gasser Mustang that was unbuilt in the box when I got back from school. His sister had found it at a yard sale for 25 cents. I've never had one unbuilt and it now resides on my shelf. And my friends knows what the stuff is worth, he just knew that I liked and collected model kits.
