I sure hope they don't leak any oil on that beautiful garage floor.

Yeah, I bought a new '69 RA3 GTO, for less than $3500. Had to pay notes on it for 3 years.

I wouldn't be able to touch a clean one right now. Back in the '70's I never thought in my wildest dreams that the cars from the '60's & '70's would be selling for what they are today.

Pretty sweet! Nice garage floor but better not drive too close to the edge.

I bet you wish they were real cars.....

Here is a rare one that I keep in a protective case. Don't have to worry about someone putting finger prints on it.

I've got about a dozen of the ERTL 1/8 scale red or white 73 SD455 T/As. My wife drug me along shopping one weekend a number of years back. She wanted to go into Big Lots, so I tagged along. The store had a huge display of various ERTL 1/8 scale cars for cheap, I think around $3 each. I bought three shopping carts full of cars . These were selling for $20 or more at the various stores, even more at the swap meets.

It was quite a while before she took me shopping again.

I did that at Big Lots also! They had an endcap with a stack of the Blue and White T/A's. They were marked at 12.99. I asked the manager what I could have them for if I bought all of them. Ended up buying 30-something cars at 7.99 each! A few were broke in box, but I sold all of the rest.
