I've acquired a few models over the past years. Below are a some photos of a selection from my collection. I also recently purchased a collection of 50-60 hand-built models from the 80's. I'm not sure they are worthy of display here given the high level of most of the stuff posted.










Forza Ferrari!

Post them anyway, if you feel like it - sure, the build quality of that vintage seldom matches modern stuff, but they are still quite often fascinating from an historical standpoint.

Thanks Mike, I would never have been able to make out that signature.

I saw your post yesterday that he just passed away; I did not know him, but sad nonetheless.
