HotWheels collectors??

I used to collect Hot Wheels and Matchbox. Sold them all years ago. Kept a lot of Camaro Johnny Lighting stuff though. Nowadays, being in the tire business I collect tire trucks- tractor trailers mainly, 1/64th scale.

Oh, forgot to mention, I used to collect tire ashtrays. Sold off most of the collection and kept only the sentimental ones.

thats a pretty damn cool collection. i still have a hess gas station firetruck NIB from about 2000.
i ust ran into it at storage the other day lol. lord knows what else i might still have that i thought i got rid of.
it was a fun hobbie but got to be to expensive. had about 200 nascar cars from the tool trucks from back then too.
a bunch or rare ones too. gone. ust took up to much time and room. just to much ya know. only collection i have left is my guitars and amps. been doing that since mid 80s. a lot of that really needs to go too but to much money and to many memories. cant do it yet lol.

i use to collect RC cars too. got rid of most of it and looking for a buyer for the rest.
got tired of the breaking and repairing. that too is a crazy expensive hobby. i dont think
folks are into it like they were back in lat 90 to mid 2000's. hobbie town over off barrett parkway
is NOTHING like it use to be. i went in what seems like just more than a yr ago possibly.
 
Not Hot Wheels but I bought this one in 1996 at a gas station for a friend who was a Earnhardt fanatic but he already bought 3
