From the time I started collecting diecast cars, trucks, and building models back in the late 60s, I have always wanted a room in my house just for my toys. For many years as I kept collecting and my collection grew and grew and grew, I began packing my cars in boxes here and there. I stored them under the beds, in the garage, and even up in the attic. Many pieces were lost and damaged in moves and at times I would even forget what I had or didn't have. I tried my best to keep track of my collection in many different ways until it was fun no more. I eventually had to rent a storage space to keep most of my collection in. It got ridiculous paying 70 dollars a month to keep something I enjoyed so much stored away. At one time I had over 5,000 cars and truck of all different scales. I began selling them at flea markets, swap meets, toy shows, and eventually on ebay. I hated parting with my little cars, not to mention loosing money on most of the sales. I have finally got on the ball and began building my owm toy room in my basement. I was able to take my time and plan as I went. Now I have room to display almost every diecast piece I have... Check it out !!!
