All of my models are in storage until my new house is done, as are my reference materials. If you have a copy of "The Unauthorized Encyclopedia of Corgi Toys", there is a photo in the back chapters of a very sad Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost that you are welcomed to post a scan of here.

One of the things on my ever growing "to do list" (which will soon need to be converted to a bucket list) is to get The Unauthorized Encyclopedia of Corgi Toys and have Bill autograph it (and to do so while people are still on speaking terms with me lol).

Well, sometimes I have no filter and speak (or type) my mind a little too candidly.

It's not just old toys which self-destruct. This 1/43 Lada Niva is slowly falling apart...

My next door neighbor is named Art and his 1995 Toyota Corolla looks about like that.

So Art imitates toy cars I guess.
He' s pretty old and probably shouldn't be driving. Never fixes the car after each fender bender and claims all the bashed up places give the car "character."

Ghosty.
