Boy are you right! I've always limited my collecting habits to 1:64 scale only, but I really like old school Nascar vehicles & couldn't resist picking these up from the 'bay for a very low price. Now I find myself scanning the 1:43 auctions daily. I've got a 1:43 Racing Champions G.C. Spencer 1964 Ford coming in the mail & can't wait to see it.:thumbsup:
Does Carney make 1:43 scale display cases?

Yep, looking at a 36 car version hanging right in front of me! Now get one and get busy filling it up!:thumbsup:

Just make sure that the case is high enough to clear the cars wing. Cool cars.
Superbird77 12-18-2008, 06:01 AM Cool stuff...I love the Petty blue ones. :thumbsup:

Sorry my friend. That is a Daytona and not a Superbird.
BuildTO 12-22-2008, 02:27 PM Sorry my friend. That is a Daytona and not a Superbird.
Can you explain the difference, please? I have - as I've now learned - GL Daytonas and HW Superbirds. I thought they were the same.
matchboxtom 12-25-2008, 01:27 PM I love the Petty one.
