If anyone cares, I finally posted my collection on the gallery page. The photos are of the house I recently moved out of where I had a basement room completely to myself and my collection... the new house (and wife) doesn't permit me to have quite the same display. Maybe some day I'll have that 50's basement like some others I've seen.
Enjoy!

I have the same problem with my new house and the basement area. My other house was wide open.The new one is more segmented due to a planned in law suite that was never finished. Thinking of ways to diplay my collection and which walls to remove.

It appears you like Coca Cola....

Thansk for checking it out..Yes, my passion has been for Coca-Cola since my family was in the business since the 1930's, with bottling plants in Wisconsin and Minnesota.  I started out with just signs, then thought it would be cool to get a machine then that addiction started... It's all the same, signs, machines, clocks, Jukes, Pins, Video games.. and now for me cars... as my latest addition to the red and white is my 1959 corvette... I just had to get one that was Coca-Cola red/white.. No I'm not rich or anything, just have been very smart on buying stuff cheap and maximizing the sale on the backside!

It is an absolutely vicious addiction...VICIOUS!!!!!!!

Very nice car and collection!
When my kids grow up (long time from now), I would like to get me a car like that - but I have to be practical for now.

That's what I said but figured I can't wait that long... and wouldn't be able to afford one then either.. This way it's in investment I can drive and enjoy!!!
