Latest photos are very Anglophile-tastic Julio! Really like the AC 428 Fastback Don't know how I missed that one??? I have the open car and as almost always, the coupe looks better.

Fabulous collection! I tend to put this off but when I get around to it I love it. Handling my models, cleaning them, thinking of better ways to display them. I never put them back the way they came out, it's fun to rearrange them.

Well, there’s nothing but cars from the UK in the cabinet that I was cleaning, but the next one has mostly Italian cars, including a Fiat given to me by a certain chap from Florida! Fabulous collection! I tend to put this off but when I get around to it I love it. Handling my models, cleaning them, thinking of better ways to display them. I never put them back the way they came out, it's fun to rearrange them. Thanks, Tom! Yes indeed, rearranging them is quite enjoyable!

I spent yesterday’s evening cleaning and rearranging the cabinet where I display some of the Italian marques along with some Eastern European and a couple of Japanese cars… Some of the Lancias Alfas, Fiats, Isos… That golden Fiat was a nice gift from BB! The Ferraris, including some cars with numbers… Cleaning the Lamborghinis… The Lamborghinis, including a beautiful gift from David (MG), the red Countach at the very left… The gorgeous Maseratis… …including some nice gifts from David! And, at the bottom shelf, the Japanese models and the cool looking Eastern European station wagons! I’ll hopefully finish rearranging models tonight!

Fantastic - now we are into the area that gets me excited . Your Lancia and Maserati collections are especially fab and the Fiat "Memephistopheles" is a real treat. I will callout the Matchbox 75 "Ferrari Berlinetta" though. I was an avid collector of Matchbox when I was a lot younger and still have a lot of them, but this Ferrari was one that always alluded me. They now go for silly money!

Now we're cooking Julio! As much as I enjoy many British cars, your display of Italians makes it an easy choice You have so many great models of Maserati, Lancia, Lamborghini. While I have some of what you've shown, you really have a pleasing mix of scales, colors and eras. I can now answer my Countach question from yesterday and so happy to see the '51 Gran Luce in such good company. Seeing all of this makes me want to hold on to my Italian cars no matter what Some nice Japanese pieces too! Who makes your NSX? That's one I've always failed pursue. I actually like both generations of that car too... Keep them coming Julio, this is as enjoyable as the books!
