Lately I have been considering getting a 108 car display case to house my favorite GM/Ford/Etc. cars. I was doing some research today on the internet and found that nobody seems to make them with slots that are long enough to accomodate some of the longer cars,so I think I might have to go with a case with straight shelves and no dividers. Does anyone own one like this? Do the shelves have a tendency to bow over time?

good question. I ws thinking I might have to go the same route with my Jada and JL winged Mopars.

How about making one of your own?
When I was looking for a 100+ display case, I wasn't happy with anything out there, so I bought some stuff from Home Depot and made my own:



Ingredients:
2 acrylic sheets, one cut into 2-inch strips.
6 fake stone tiles with adhesive backs.
1 sheet of black poster board (to attach the tiles)
2 hinges (acrylic if you can find them)
and a whole lot of glue.

Ok,I might have to pull the trigger on an undivided case once I have all the $$ together.

I bought two giovanni 30-car units a while back from a die-cast shop,and the slots are nice and long and can fit most anything I want,from a jada vw bus to a jl gremlin. But they must have discontinued that type,because the slots are smaller than what I have,at least according to their website.

I have 2 of the 108 car cases and every JL I have fits in fine...including the bigger castings like the Superbirds and the '59 Cadillac Eldorados...they sit flat too...none of this angled stuff!!

I need to get some more cases!

Do you have Giovanni cases or Carney Cases?

 

[Puppycat]

I have also seen some cases that are wood not plastic that have dividers on the lower levels but the top 2 shelves are open.

I have the slanted Carney cases and the Superbirds and few other JL's will not fit. I wish someone made a case with slanted shelves and no dividers. I don't know if Carney does not because of sagging issues if shelf was slanted.

I went the homemade route too, with 1x4 wooden shelves and acrylic plastic covers.

So far I've got ( 8 ) 108 car Giavonni cases. Everything from JL,HW, MB,MM,Jada & Maisto fit inside just fine.
