Justin 'suggested' a project for me after I sent him a e-mail with some pics which you are about to see!
Yesterday-1/6/13 our PCA Region had their annual planning meeting in Charlottesville, VA. The day before I was in one of our local drug store checking out and noticed a display of die cast cars.
HOPEING to find a 356 in the group I started looking.
Darn-no 356s to be found-HOWEVER to my amazement here was a neat looking 2010 GT3RS.
So I bought one for $5.99 in white.
That was Saturday-come Sunday and heading for the meeting I stopped by again and picked up 3 more GT3RSs. One more white, a black one and a dark silver.
GREAT I have my own fleet of GT3s now!

Couldn't afford the real ones!!
In my 'collection' and I had forgot about this one since it was setting on a shelf with some models of airplanes that I flew when I was in the US Navy was a 1948 Roadster.
One is featured in this current Pano PCA mag.

Next we have a couple of 550 Spyders that I can't remember when I got them.

A model that I use the most is a 356B T6 Convertible.
I set this on top of the gas tank on my 1961 Roadster when I show it.

Check the gas tank on the Roadster.

Here is a plethora of 356 Coupes that stay up in 'My Cave'!!
I found most of these in a grocery store.

Then there are the little ones that I probably found at a Wal Mart over the years.
A 356, 911, 957 (I think) and a 917.

Its OK if your 78 and still prowl the toy section in the stores. Holiday Season is best!
The one I think I like the best is the 356 T6 Coupe with the surf board on top. I found this in Sarasota, FL.
For 20 years (1987 thru 2007) a friend and I would trailer my 17' sailboat down there to race it each March in our Mid Winter Regatta. This was usually a week after getting back from a Western US ski trip.
Them was busy times.

So folks lets see some of your playtoys and or collectibles.
