There are about 100 Olds in this cabinet, I have about 75 more, so I better get working on another one.

Nice work. I like the fact that you left enough depth to display the cars on diagonally.

Very nice job! I keep saying I'm going to do the same thing.....one of these days.
Did you have to have the glass shelves cut to size, or did you buy them like that?

I had all the glass and the mirror cut to size. It made things a lot easier.

I think the cars look better when they are displayed on an angle.

There is a glass door that goes in the front, but when I took some pics, they didn't look good, so I took it out for the photos
