For those of you of a certain age, this is quite the trip down memory lane.

Keep your eyes peeled for lots of Ford, Cobra stuff.

The original art this guy has collected is what really blows my mind.

Wow, some great stuff. Again, I love the packaging and all of the illustration that was used in those days.

Looks like it sold for almost 27K!

Those of you who have been around for a while may remember back around 1990, when a SAAC member in, I believe, the Chicago area discovered a huge inventory of unsold 1960's slot car kits stored in a warehouse. He placed ads in the SAAC Snakebite Bulletin newsletters offering them for sale.

I bought one of each Shelby, Cobra and Mustang / Ford example. The boxes were as new, likely coming out of unopened case lots. I still have them.

The sales went on for quite some time until the stash was exhausted. I recall being told that he paid for his secondary education with the proceeds from the sales.

Thanks for sharing. That's a BIG collection

One kit I kept over the years since the GT350 (in blue) matches the wife's car.
