Best guess estimate, I would say you probably have well over $1 MILLION in value in your vast collection due largely to model of vehicle, availability and production numbers.
A wonderful collection..... A good way to clean the cars is with a make up brush for applying blusher.... Very soft and very little risk of damaging anything if done carefully.
This was the best 43 mins I have spent today, and the day has just begun in my part of the world. it's always a joy to watch your collection tour, especially with the way you have organized them and the new additions too. I can't wait to see the new museum space, which these cars surely deserve. While you seem to have the majority of the cars and car brands, I do hope that someday you do add the Tata Nano to your collection as well!
Just a damn great collection!!! Questions from a newb 😌: 1. So dust, yeah, I get it, but what about rash? Are your rooms temp controlled? Do you see a lot of rash? Cause I live in the Caribbean, high humidity and it SUCKS for diecast 🥺. 2. Are you keeping the boxes for ease of moving in the future? Or because you plan to sell? Just wondering... I might throw out all my boxes, they just take too much space. 3. Do tires get flat just storing them like this and not moving/rotating them? Thanks!
@@DiecastNewb 1, it's temp controlled. Rash has not increased from when vehicles were removed from packages years ago. 2. I keep the boxes for value, future proofing and in case of sale. Sometimes I get the same car but by a better brand and locate the box to sell the former. 3. No, tires have been unaffected
@JamesonsDiecastCars nice. Would have loved to have mine temp controlled (and humidity controlled) as well because some are just looking bad... 😫 And only one car seems to have the wheels to flat lol. Got a lot of thinking to do. Thanks! Great stuff.
I am also a collector of few hundred cars and a commercial real estate professional. In that case do it new close to where you're at. Design/engineering it and get it approved by the city/county; get quotes from building contractor the total cost. Use industrial material as they should be less expensive. Set up 'go fund me' to offer people contribute money for a certain no of years subscription to visit for no charge. I can help you to get a SBA loan w/ 15% down or the balance needed (need business plan, etc). Find sponsors like GM to contribute funding. After they are all done, then set up another entity non-profit 501(c)3 so donation can be made by others.
@@samfungccim all true, except I'm looking to do this as close to my house as possible, ideally across the street. I also want to build exactly what I want knowing it will be more expensive than finding something and making that work
I love all the Chinese dealer models you have! I now have about 30 Chinese dealer models from brands like, Mazda, Renault, Kia, Nissan, Toyota and Volkswagen and they are so detailed
Man, I wish I have the same space and shelves as you do. I collect 1:18 scale as well and I truly have no more room for another model and there are more models I wanna acquire. My man cave is tiny 360 degrees all around is full of 1:18 models. Great model cars and room you have. 👍👍
Wow, Very nice collection! I've been collecting 1/18 scale since 1995! I have around 800 total with hot wheels mixed in! Most of mine are cars from the 30's - 70's! I find price to be an issue at times, like Autoworld is pricey!!! Sam's Club has the better deal at 16.99 for Maisto brand!!! I have some movie cars like Grease and American Graffiti in the original box! I have some John Force muscle cars in the box as well! I've bought over 200 old Ertl cars from the 90's and 2000's!!!! They are in the original boxes and I collect dust too! I've broken several cars trying to dust, so I don't mess with dusting too often!!!! I also have some Route 66 cars from Kmart in the boxes! Again I admire your collection and I like car designs too!!! The electric cars do have some wild body designs, but the cost is rather high for most people!!! We shall see how it goes down the road!!!!
Waaaw! Nice collection ,sir! I am looking for years for an Ford Model T Sedan. I, myself am buisy with rc model trucks, where i put a lot of mind setting time in and on! Keep it up sir, nice ! Greetings from Antwerp Belgium!
Good evening! The collection is amazing! It really takes up space, half the house) I also collect 1.43.. But I switched to 1.24 Danbury/Franklin Mint.. and in the future I want 1.18, but only Muscle car.. In general, it’s very interesting to look at your collection, congratulations to you! Sincerely !
@@АндрейКовалёв-с4э thanks! The good news is that it takes up one 1/3rd the house lol. This is just the basement. There are two other floors of the house that I keep car free.
@@JamesonsDiecastCars Ah..well then you don’t have to worry about the place)) you still have a lot..I wish you further addition to your collection..I have subscribed to you, I will follow you)) have a blast..-How old have you been collecting 1:18?
I hate dust... my dust... yours is fine with me cause l don't have to clean it 😂 Love your dedication to all brands, no snobbery. I build models & collect diecast of all sizes, not to the size of you. AWESOME VIDEO!
I see some cars that I never see in the stores or the internet!! You must have a source for some of the cars! The74 Buick wagon woody is one I've never seen before!!

Great collection. I have a similar though smaller one. For the sake of space, I tend to collect smaller scales as well. 1/43 being the main one. I too tend to corral the cars by make and go chronologically too. Being half Italian has made me predisposed to Ferraris and other Italian cars. I also build and repair cars too. My real cars are now down to two convertibles. My daily is an '03 V-8 Mustang w/only 23K miles and the other a 1 of only 124 Fiat 124 Spiders (#51/124) What 1/1 car(s) do you have? There is a motorcycle museum by me and I was thinking of donating my collection to them but I'm not sure yet. I think every collector has this "museum dream." Finally, give your wife a big hug and kiss for me. She must really love you 😅

Since you have over 1k cars can you discuss paint rash and zinc rot (pest)? among your collection. Paint rash has developed on my AA LFA which is very disappointing to me :(. i have about 100 in racing and street from major brands from early 00's to present. Ertl, Kyosho's and Minichamps are the worst for paint decaying. Do MFG use primer or direct to metal paint?
i’m just wondering, if there was earthquakes, how do you handle that? Second question is is there a distributor of acrylic cases for single cars that you have that you know of that I could buy up to 100 at a time with a good deal please respond.
Have you ever seen a 1/18th scale Toyota MR2 Mk1 ? ( I see you have a mk2 and mk3) Being a car designer , did you like the Buick Boattail Riviera? 71/72/73
