Most of us cars are our life, however, do you all have any hobbies or collections that consume your time as well. I collect hot wheels/johnny lightnings/nascar collectables avidly.

Re: Hobbies/Collections

I collect 1:64 scale diecast "camaro" cars. Not the goofy Dubs ones or anything. The classic looking ones like Johnny Lightning, Hot Wheels, etc. I have like 70 of them I think

Re: Hobbies/Collections

I tried getting into models a little bit when I was too broke to do anything with my car. But don't do it so much now.

guess my hobbies are my car, sex, and movies, but I don't collect them I just watch them since I work at a theatre and its free.

Re: Hobbies/Collections

Hobbies- I enjoy working on my car, and building Fbody and NASCAR plastic model kits. I have about 10 sets of decals for all the differant Ken Schrader cars through the years. I'm currently building a 70 Camaro Z28, and have 5 or 6 more Fbodies to do after that one.

Collections - I've started collecting 1/24 scale diecast. All Ken Schrader, so far. I have alot of NASCAR and Fbody 1/64 also.
