Before I had a slot car track as a kid. I built static model cars. I thought I outgrew them. Apparently not.
About 10 to 12-years ago, a nice couple here in Toronto had a website offering new 1/25 static car kits at around $12 to $14 each. It brought back some fond memories. Now as an adult with a slightly better budget, I bought a bus-load of kits figuring I'll need something to do later on down the road when I retire. Most of these were tucked away under the stairs for all these years.
It's too bad that Cindy and Marty retired their website. They are well known in Toronto. They still work at flea markets.
Now that I started converting some of these to slot cars. I look at them very differently these days. It's possible that I may have added a few cars since that photo.
Do you collect model kits?
Cheers,
Ken
