Whats that old saying?

quote_left“The only thing that changes from boys to men is..the size of their toys.”

Well that may hold true for some..but there are a lot of us that still have the same size toys now as we did when we were ‘little guys’..lol

Hot Wheels, Matchbox, Johnny Lightning, Ertl, Revell, etc.. no matter which brand or medium you happened to grow up with, some guys n gals  just cant put them down.  We love diecast cars And we love to customize them to suit our own tastes.
