Started collecting Chevrolets again, one image for each model year. 1/24 diecast when possible, 1/25 plastic or resin when necessary.

Haven’t been on this site for a long time. Is the auction still active?

Welcome back. While the auctions are not a currently viable commodity, you may check out an alternative in the Buy, Sell & Trade Forum:

Thanks for the welcome back, everyone!

Not diecast, but here are two of my recent resin builds, a 1968 Impala Custom Coupe, and a 1976 Caprice 4-door HT…

Those are fantastic builds Chet. Diecast or not, I love seeing them. I post my builds as well. The guys don't seem to mind. And I appreciate them being interested.😊

Chet, my Uncle Gene, yes, the one I'm named after, had a '76 Caprice Classic, his was a dark red color, man that thing rode like a dream. I don't think my '76 Sedan DeVille rode any nicer to be honest. At least from what I can remember. And Mom and Dad's '76 Bonneville Brougham rode equally as nice. Maybe nicer, as the Caprice and Bonneville didn’t seem as floaty.😊

WOW! Chet the Chevrolet display case is awesome. An excellent selection of models. Welcome back to the Forum. I still have the '59 Impala in white that I got from you. The '76 Caprice Hardtop Sedan is most impressive as is the '68. Two of favorite years, but to be honest, there isn't a bad year in the Bel Air, Impala or Caprice from 1953 to 1977. My favorite line of cars as I've owned or driven several over the years.
