😂 Just started collecting cars, mostly FM and Danbury. I think you see the 1914 Silver ghost or the 1929 Phantom I in silver and black. Both Franklin mints.

Or this one? The 1911 RR tourer...

In fact i am trying to create a little museum with about 400 pcs old cars up to 1960. Almost halfway now....

@donderbeestje It's the Silver Ghost I was seeing. I have this by Ilario, but seeing barely more than the bonnet, thought it might be a Phantom - it being quite modern for 1914. Really wonderful collection you have.

@donderbeestje you have quite a collection for 2 years of collecting! I was buying like this in my first 2-3 years of collecting that is now 8-9 years ago. I am collecting the same cars (except the 1/16s) ... Excellent presentation, nice cabinets!

The 1/16 are great spacefillers on the cabinets. Bought them in a small complete collection except for one a year ago. All dusty but in good shape. But somehow 1/24 is more fun to collect. 1/43 foo small. Had a collection of FM but sold it again after a few months because of the bad details and had no feeling with it. The 1/16 FMs look great but 2 on a shelf and its full. But i had some doubt because there is so much and beautiful 1/18 on the market... After all i decided that 1/24 is more rare to collect in the Netherlands so the hunting for nice cars gives more pleasure. Only thing i am still doubting about is to create one corner with Cmc 1/18 because i like there range of 1930s cars...
