I collect 1/18th too (and every other scale). Only 67-72 I have is 1/24th.

Hey cool, I collect em too! Last time I checked I had about 42, I collect everything as far as years go, my wife and her family are very supportive! Usually for my birthday I get the latest Exotic Model Car company Catalog and pick out what I want for Christmas! (Who'd guess I am a 30-something?) I'd post Pics but I just now got them all back in their original boxes to move to KY.

We should send Ertl a letter and tell them
" If you build it, we will buy " Actually the company that is making the 1/24th 67's are former Ertl employees ... hmmm
