a bargain I would jump at :geek: - that metallic red is my favourite colour for diecast and its interesting just how many Dinkys made 1969-1970 were recoloured metallic red then -the colour was very much in fashion with red enamel out.

I put up the black display units, which helped when people are on the couch. The rest of the room needs to be redone though as I am running out of room until I do.

Thank you all for the kind words. Many of the other collections here put my little room to shame but I do enjoy sitting on the couch surrounded by my toys, reading the forum. More then once I have climbed up the back of the couch to compare a model being discussed.
