Stutz, that is just beautiful! You know, one of these days I might just show up on your doorstep so I can see your collection in person. ;)

I'm going to work on a spare room this winter Zeb so I can display some of my collection. Hopefully, I'll have it done by late spring. Most of my collection is in a 10'X30' climate controlled storage unit about 3-4 miles from my home. The storage unit is to costly for me to remain there much longer (it's almost $340 a month for rent!). You can't imagine what is in that storage unit.

The way it's been going lately, $340.00 is probably good for six months of die cast collecting for me.

The way it's been going lately, $340.00 is probably good for six months of die cast collecting for me.

With RC2/JL not releasing much lately, my spending has drasticly gone down.

I've cut down in my buying of diecast Zeb. I still spend at least $300 a month on diecast though. Better than the $800-$1000 a month that I spent in the last 3 years or 4 years of being a diecast addict.

It's now costing me money to store this stuff, and almost $340 a month is too much to keep it in storage. After 30+ years of collecting, perhaps it's time to sell on the 'Bay. I'll try the local diecast shows first before the 'Bay though. I have a lot of common 1/64 scale cars that wouldn't be worth listing on the 'Bay.

Beautiful model. Thanks for sharing it.

Good luck on your new display room. I'm in a similar situation with storage/display space. It'll be tough to decide which items to sell, if any!

I was just going to ask where do you people store all this beautiful stuff... :p

Even 1:43 take a lot of space, but what about 1:18...those collectors must be in trouble... :D :D

VERY NICE '41 ford STUTZ, and by the way...NICE pic too!

I went to a NSRA Hot Rod show over the weekend and saw several real '41s up close. Your 1:43 scale '41 is a nice representation of the real thing!:thumbsup:
