Garage Sale Find

Postby BRP32 » Sat Jun 15, 2013 11:12 am

Hey Guys!

Just picked these up at a garage sale by me.

$8 for all 5.

Looks like I'm a 1/24 racer now too.

Just need chassis to put under them.

Dang you guys building all these cool 1/24 hot rods!!!!

I use to be strictly 1/32.....

Looks like I now crossed over to the darkside!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Hi Guys!

I just couldn't pass them up.

Even if they only are used for decoration for my man cave......

I have ulterior motives for them though.... :lol: :lol: :lol:

I think I have also been bit by the 1/24 bug.....

Happy Father's Day to you all and happy hunting at those sales too!!!!

Hi Guys!

I tried to pass on them being strictly a 1/32 guy but the temptation was way too great!

I like car everything.......

1/24 is a whole new realm for me now.

I don't know much about it other than following your guys posts here on the boards.

I'm thinking a few H&R chassis and I will be good to go.

I don't need any of those 40,000 RPM motors on my little track though.....

That would be just crazy silly on my small 4 laner.....

I'm sure I'll be asking plenty of questions along the way regarding 1/24.

Happy Father's day!

Hey Gentleman Norb!

As tempting as your great offer is I am unfortunately going to have to pass...... :lol:

I use to build car models years ago and I think this may have pulled me back into 1/24-1/25 again.

Plus with the addition of a few H&R chassis makes it that much better!

Every now and then you luck out and come across stuff like this at a garage sale.

Fortunately I was at the right place at the right time.....

Hardest part is getting the wife to go to sales with me.

Once at the sales she even found some antiques she liked too.

Better yet......

Thanks again and Happy Fathers day and Happy slotting!

Keep them on all fours and not on their lids!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
