Like many of you, I have several "sub-collections,"Ā  including old/new Stock cars (NASCAR).Ā 

The Hudsons & Mercury are fantastic. That Ertl '57 is a little better than people realize. I cut the trunk open on that 1969 Dodge (and will one day change those stupid rims and add more overall detail). Please excuse that dust but I wanted to show those floor pans (yes, I opened the "sealed doors" too).Ā  Lastly, Action produced those "modern jobs"Ā  which are heavy, VERY nicely detailed and those tire stickers are a nice touch! šŸ˜Ž

I don't really get into NASCAR, but I do like the older stuff.Ā  That #99 Dodge looks excellent.

@gavin Yeah, I don't follow it either and won't ever try to explain all those little 1/18 details...Ā  Ā I just wanted a "representation"Ā  of stock cars throughout history. Those older ones look pretty cool. šŸ˜Ž
