Very cool.

I think I would rather spend that kinda money on something that I could actualy use, a couple hunert would go a long way on my coupe build

 

There's a lot of guys doing this type of stuff now. I think it's pretty cool. GOOD art is well money spent I always says.

 

I agree.........I am a sucker for cool shit. I wish I was talented enough to do this. I think it would be a cool way to make a few extra $$$'s.

 

I can also guarantee you that the amount of time to make these is worth more than the asking price.

 

Nice but expensive

 

those are cool! looks like hes sellin a bunch.

 

Nifty but pricey Ill say so.

 

That's a fact! Factor in the price of the model, then the time and materials to do the car, it's a very good price, IMO!

Do people expect these folks to sell these for $29.99, I wonder?

 

Junkyard Jewel? I thought this is how they are supposed to be driven? I can almost hear the Thin Lizzy!

 

..that's some nice work there, lot's of time involved.

 

I think those are really slick!

 

My son has got several diecast cars similar to this called "For Sale"series,they sell them at Wal-Mart for $12-15 he's got a couple of VW's,a vette,a chevelle,a 57 chevy,and a 50 chevy truck and somemore I think,he loves old rough cars-wonder where he got that from?

 

I have seen those and they do not compare to these. Most of the cheap-done one do not look realistic. Ever seen rust on a rubber tire ??? I have actually seen some of these (junkyard jewels) in person and the are amazing.

 

That's funny.

 

Cool isn't cheap, but you could build a real junkyard for what those cost.

 

Blah! Not one of those Vettes had any rust on them! Poor quality!



Ok seriously..The're cool. If i didn't have so many real car parts i needed to buy yet i'd buy a few of them.

 

True, but with these, the zoning Nazis can't do shit to you.

 

Those are pretty cool. I like the look of the rust. Sure look sweet.

 

really nice but pricey......

 

very cool cars.
and the guy's found a way to help pay for his hobby.

 

Ooh, I want the Fiero!!!

Never mind, I'll just buy a real one for that much and run it through the woods.

 

Man! this guy does some NICE work!

 

For the cost of a Franklin Mint, compared to one of these....one of these is money well spent. For guys like me who suffer through a long winter, these are a nice alternative.

 

Great work. I think well worth the money.

 

It's like they can see my dreams.

 

i think these are pretty neat. especially the 40 ford and the merc

 

I agree, preety cool, of course I am one of those guys who can never finish anything, so there right up my alley. HA

 

Yeah, take a look at some the steps he does to build them. Price is fair I think. Plus you can send him your own die-cast as well and he can build one out of it. Wish I could do this kind of stuff.
