Davids garage vs. Jay Leno's garage

My car collections have changed over time...I sold a lot of them to fund legos and make more room for legos!  Jay Leno would be so proud of my cars, it's just that my cars aren't real!


Here are the car collection I've had and sold for legos

Cereal box cars fron 50s


Matchbox cars and hot wheels

My coveted matchbox collection
Hubley cars!





Lensdey??? Cars
Tootsie toy (?) metal cars...wheels are metal making them pre ww2. Plastic used to save steel

The sale!!!

Now I have some great lego cars instead!

























(addendum 1116 I referenced Jay Leno and now found out he's burnt and injured...get well soon, so sorry to hear this)

Lego fest

 Alright, I went to lego fest when it was here

I thought it was for all ages but it was more for kids.  I felt rather awkward but some kids thought I was pretty good, I did build 1 heck of a model plane
Even as an adult you have to say thats pretty impressive!

The  pics above show families having a good time...nice to see
Love the triceratops, colors were great
Barney was cold turning blue vs. Purple
Lego, I am your father...not really
Who doesn't like Indiana jones....glad the boulder didn't run him over into pieces...

The car was just amazing, esp the stats on the sign with it.  Love how at that size, square bricks create curves on the front hood

The formula for success

I posted in the past my favorite 80s video game ...POLE POSITION!!...

I have loved the look of indy cars,  I think lego has made some of the best formula 1 cars...I put my favorite lego cars below:












As if these pictures aren't neat enough, this person on brick Brothers made the best overhead starting gate idea

The thrill of lego combined with race cars, that's 1 Formula for success!
