I am looking for a source for display cases that hold 1 diecast each. I am looking for cases for both 1/18 and 1/24 scale. Any suggestions are welcomed!
Thank You!

jzierolf is correct. Hobby Lobby sells a line of cases made by qp called the Pioneer. This is the case that I use. They make them for matchbox cars sizes up through football size. There is also a place called Michaels out here that also sells a line that works rather well for the same purposes. I have searched online for cases and there are plenty of companies that offer them.

Sprintcars11, I have also purchased them at HL. I do want to sell my diecast collection that includes the display cases for them. The diecasts include the 1995 USAC "triple crown" cars of Tony Stewart, and many more. Priced well below market value. Son going to college.

305 9A I sent you an e-mail. The problem is I want to find cases that will fit sprint cars with the wings on. I don't think a regular 1/24 scale case is tall enough. It'll fit a 1/24 stock car, but I don't think it will clear a sprint car wing. Thank you for your replies and please correct me if I am wrong. Would someone be willing to post a picture of a 1/24 and 1/18 scale sprint car in a display case?
Thank you!
Joe

I personally have not found one that will hold a 1 1/18th size winged sprintcar. What I have used is a football case. It has a mirror in the back of it, and gives the room needed to hold the car with some space to spare.
No matter how hard you try.........you can't polish a

Hey Joe, here are a couple of cars that are 1/18th scale in cases that were purchased at Hobby Lobby.
