I am 99% sure all of those cars and parts are somewhere around the garage back home...I had not thought about them in years. Time to find that old box of stuff, and see if I can piece together a car...

Cool, would love to see those old cars! A lot of the older 1/32 and 1/24 cars are quite valuable now.

I was never into R/C cars, but I love the Slots! I have 2 Cox Chaparral's from the '60s and some newer ones as well. I have a Stomberg Track that I need to set-up

Those Chaparral's can be worth some serious coin if they're still in good condition. Always wanted a Cox Cheetah, decent ones were going on e-Bay for over $300.00 last I checked.

I think we all have that same old green screwdriver. I know I have one just like it.

I just Sold a Cheetah on eBay a few months ago - I think I got a couple of hundred for it. I had gotten it with a Chaparral & Ferrari and only wanted the Chaparral..

Made some Coin!
