- About Me
-
A little about myself.

- How to Start Collecting
-
A collector in South Africa named Theo van der Merwe has asked me a number of questions regarding how to start collecting diecast model cars. I thought that my response to him would be of interest to others.

- Manufacturers' Catalog Numbers
-
I thought it might be useful to make a list of the catalog number range(s)
used by the manufacturers.
|
|
- Notes on the Manufacturers
-
As a guide, I have made general comments about the most commonly found model manufacturers. Please keep in mind that there are exceptions to many of the manufacturers usual production quality.

- Security Bands
-
I can understand the reasoning but I don't like the execution. I see three
problems with the bands.
|
|
- State-of-the-Industry
-
The industry is changing (for the better I am happy to report) and so I have changed my rating system to reflect recent developments.
|
|
- Wish List
-
I collect models as a surrogate for collecting the real thing. Owning even
one real clasic car requires a large committment of time and money. It is possible, however, to own models of more cars than even a wealthy collector could amass. I have made a quick list of some cars I'd like to see turned into models.
