This is how I spent some of my spare time before the Chevelle project. My Son's first word was Car, like father like son, so I wanted to fill his room with them. I just did'nt like them sitting on shelfs, so I got creative. I wish I had more time to create more of them, I still have more ideas of how to display them, plus the cars now have gotten so more detailed than the one's I have from years ago. Now they sit in a game room I built for him to play his X-box 360, which is currently consuming his life, the displays are not even given a glance. I wish I had a better pic of the car dealership, that thing is over 3 ft by 2 ft and very heavy, lights work in the dealership, 3 car garage and in the driveway scene, on that one I went overboard and hand made every shingle on the garage, I know , way to much time on my hands. Not any more.

My son also has the car bug, and I was wondering did you build the garages or can I pick them up somewhere?

Everything was hand made. At that time I had too much time on my hands.
