Do you think 139.00 is reasonable, I don't, I'm getting a Brad Keselowski championship #2, complete w / the scratches, and or dings if any sustained in final race for 64.99, still in production, won't be here till March sometime, w / 26 detailed, & or moving parts, very, very, detailed, ~ ~ ~ so 139.00 ? , where can one be had for a reasonable $, I'll give you 65.00 for yours ? .. CASH !

Action Extreme ? is that the supplier, w / to get ?

I picked up a Bobby Allen 1a GMP 1/18th scale car on this message board earlier this year. A poster was selling out his collection. I was surprised nobody picked up the Allen car and he kept lowering the asking price. I think I got it for around 35 bucks and its one of my favorites in my collection.

1st off, I'm not pretending to know a whole lot about your kind of racing, Sprints, etc. because I don't, but the more time I spend here the more I pick up, that being said, w / me it's about the color, .... I just happen to like the silver & green combo of that car, ..... go good w / my Nascar die's, I'll put it rite in the middle,

"how many casts were made," .... I understand that too, ..........

As for the size, 1/25th if that is close to the size of the 1/24th Nascar die's, don't want one of those tiny ones,

Ok now, find me one, ....... thanks for your comments,

I have a grean and silver 1/18 scale #11 car signed by the man and I paid more then $139 for it almost 10 years ago.

I also have a 1/18 scale Superman car also signed by the man that $139 would be the down payment,

Diecasts are worth what you will pay for your collection. The more you want it...the more you're willing to pay. The rarer it is the more you'll pay. The more popular the driver of that car...the more you'll pay. I have a Wrangler #3 signed by the man. Wonder how much that's worth ?

You got a steal. I gave a whole lot more for my Bobby Allen car years ago.

maybe you should look into having a custom one done of the car you want. sometimes you might ge a better deal. just something to think about. there are plenty of guys out there doing some diecast building

I thought so to. I have been collecting for a lot of years and it was the best deal I ever got.

With diecasts, they are worth the buyer will pay and then if the seller really wants to sell. It's a crap shoot but that is the market today. I have everyone made but all major manufacturers, all sizes and would not sell anyone of them. I did sell and extra Sammy TMC Action last year for over $200.

Did it have Sammy's auto on it ?

Someday milwaski, et al will be paying 200.00 just for Sammy to autograph a shirt for them!

I think I mite have located some cars, ~ ~ ~ Steve Kinser 1/24, 105.00 , 139.00, 145.00, ... STP Donny Schatz 1/24...64.95, Kyle Larson 1/24 64.95.

Can someone here measure the 1/25, & the 1/18 scale car for me, ... L / W / H probably w / the length would pretty much tell me the W / H
