Thanks... It is a ongoing project construction starts again after the first snowfall .l.o.l. That is when I work on projects that should have been done a long time ago. |

Jim I am going to ask a silly question, I think I see a matchbox camper in there but what are the rest of them from? I recently did a trade for some Malibu International campers but I would like to get a few 1/64 scale campers. Are they all plastic campers or are they Diecast? I have so many things I would like to get started on, like dio's, decals, re-paints, customizing, etc and I would like to find some different castings cheap to practice on other than Hot Wheels. I didn't go to K'day yesterday and I should of went to pick up the bump arounds to make some customs on, but I don't like dealing with the idiots there and I had a lot to do around the house. I am sure I will find them around and it isn't like I was going to do that right now anyway, to many other things to do.. Like you said when winter rolls around that is when I will start on some projects I have been wanting to do.  |

I am sure I will find them around and it isn't like I was going to do that right now anyway, to many other things to do.. Like you said when winter rolls around that is when I will start on some projects I have been wanting to do. One has Matchbox and Lesney on the base .  One is Majorette .  Yatming trailers are plastic. Johnny Lightning is diecast.  Shell .... Matchbox made some camper trucks a few years ago one was Free Spirit. The others just GOOGLE Matchbox motorhomes and you will find lots of them. Only problem with them is the back door the whole back opens not realistic for a camper. I am a fanatic for realistic cars and trucks. My wife on the other hand will put just about anything that rolls on the diorama layouts. She had cars like the hotwheels animal things..... Rodzilla..... cars that looked like a snake... or bat... a cat like car.l.o.l. Anyways if you back the Matchbox trucks into a parking spot they look fine. They are cheap the camper is plastic .Except for the back door they are a nice little camper. The Johnny Lightning motorhomes were a bit more than 10 dollars each my wife bought about a dozen on line. They are i think 1:100 scale .The front mirrors stick way out and kids break them off playing with them. Shell the reason they make tomorrows is to get things done you didnt get done today.And besides a thousand years from now who will care what we did today. l.o.l. |

Wow thanks Jim I didn't expect you to go to all that trouble in labeling all the campers but I appreciate it.
You are so true, but the only problem is sometimes tomorrow never comes when it comes down to doing what you want to do it only comes for things that need to be done. LOL
