Yes, I'm an undisciplined collector. The black Rolls is one of my older Solido models, dating from my earlier years of collecting 1:43 cars. Beside it is a dimestore pressed steel limo from the 1930's, most likely by Hubley but unmarked, that I restored to original from small remnants of paint. Both after years of ownership still make me feel proud to have them. I just thought the distinguished members of Forum 43 might enjoy the results of one who just can't seem to specialize.

Please stay undisciplined, David! It's a big enrichmet for me. I enjoy your collection very much. That's a wish from a very disciplined collector...

Thanks David!

Christoph
