Nice, well-rounded selection. I'm familiar with all of them (but don't have any MNTrailers... yet ) except Snap On 90. Did they make a Mustang with removable body panels?

Nice collection John. I have some from each of these manufacturers.

@chris The Snap On is from Snap On Tools, I don't know who they contracted to make it for them.

Oh, well then, I am acquainted with them. I have a stock 1/18 1923 Snap On Ford Model T, that I bought right off the big red Snap On truck. I then purchased another and fabricated all the pieces necessary to make a "regular" 1923 Ford Model T Roadster.

LOL. It's a race between my want list and my ability to fund my bank account!

@marty-johnson The core of my collection are Cobras and Ford GT's. Add in ten Chaparrals and 7 Corvettes and you can see how the numbers can pile up - remember too that I was buying them when they were still reasonable in price. My last Exoto buy was in 2014. I should also note that four of my cars are 1:12 scale so my 1:18 number is 4 less than stated. I do not collect any other scale.
