Car Model Boxes

[jbwelda]

I took a couple photos of some boxes I have stacked up on one of my display cases, some of the models from the boxes are in the case!


Most of these I bought on ebay or built the model that came inside them. Kind of like the vintage look so that's what pretty much guided my selection, and I change them out once in a while. These are mostly empty so if they tumble down, at least they are light!

There are even two Palmer kits on the right hand side, a Lola that actually doesn't look half bad, although I have not compared the body to a photo of a real one. Both boxes contain the same kit.

Few if any of the models in the display case were built by me. I did some major repairs from damage, but pretty much all are from various sources. I think there is even a Dennis Lacy in there and also a Curt Raitz. Some of the others came to me with the boxes above, like the Futurista and a couple of the Lindberg hot rods.














Anyone else got any good pics of their boxes, throw them down! And if theres already a thread about this, please move this to that thread.

Nice collection there JB! I just traveled to my mountain cabin for a holiday so I can't get any pics of my main collections now but I did bring these to keep me busy for a few weeks. I have limited resources here so that's why I like these type of kits here.

I got this at a garage sale a couple of years ago. Its the Carl Casper phone booth show car from 1966. The box is in fair shape for its age

the only parts that are missing is the scoop.Tires and phone.I got it for a great price only 10 bucks, I guess the guy didn't know what he had..lol

I put up these shelves a couple years ago to display some boxes with the built models . It works but takes up a lot of shelf space .
