Well, I've been running out of space and have been trying to scale back what I 've been collecting lately, so I've decided to try and mainly stick to black castings.
I think I made the decision because, in my opinion, most castings will always look good in black. I have to admit its not working that well and I still am picking up some other coloured castings if I can't wait for a black version, but it has helped me slow down.
That said my display case is now 0ver 90% black and is looking pretty sharp. Here are some of my favorite General Motors Classics from the 1950's that snuck out of the case for a photo op...
The black '53 Buick from The Fabulous Motorama series is the best version of that casting, IMO.
All of those look great in black!
But for the '59 Impala vert, I am partial to the powder blue version from Auction Insanity.
didnt Henry Ford once say (I dont care what color you paint my cars as long as they are Black),heard that somewhere,dont know if its true. nice pics too.
..nice pics G-man .. ..I think I would find it hard to collect only one color......I have a few black cars that I aways found incredible because they were done in black.....good choice.. was just listening to some oldies tunes...and Gino Vanelli singing "Black cars look better in the shade.."!!!
Hey Dr.Olds the "quote" was actually " You can have any color car you want as long as it's black" Henery Ford. I also like the "Black castings" They just seem to reach out & grab your attention. ZF.
