No.The companies are all doing fine and actually expanding one. These are some of mine and my wifes personal collection. I'm just culling the herd a bit of paper duplicates and thinning out the vehicle collection. Getting rid of around 60 trucks, 25 cars, 6 or 7 motorcycles, a Scarab boat and 5 big containers of spare parts. We are in the mid 60's, only one grandson is into these things so we are keeping our favorites and a couple dozen trucks, a half dozen car projects, 3 race cars and 4 motorcycles.Looking around September for the sale.

Vladislav Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 Great old pics! And what is interesting to me they brings the feeling of the time. A pleasure to see people doing job, not just spending time enjoying some stupd things. And it's not difficult to count out my favorit one. Yes, I like pouring concrete too Thanks for sharing. 1 Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
