    :grin: I was actually asked that so I thought it would make a good topic heading.

    Anyway, seeing as though this is obviously model car week, I thought it was time I showed off my GSX Collection.

    They have a 1 3/4" wheelbase and yes that is orange.

    Black with gold stripes and red pinstriping.
    White with black stripes and black pinstriping.
    Yellow with black stripes and red pinstriping.
    Orange with black stripes and black pinstriping.

    I got 'em off a guy on eBay who I bought a GN for a friend. He wrote back to me and said "I have other Buicks too". I looked straight into the camera and went :Brow: . He said "They say GSX or something on them. "They don't look like your car" he said (he'd been to see the Electra on the site) I suspect mistakenly thinking that I was only into the big cars. I said "They...?" :Brow: he said, "Sure, I've got three or four around here somewhere" He didn't say they where Johnny Lightning but by then it was too late anyway, I would have taken all of "them GSX ones" and..."what else you got". He ended up throwing in a green T-Top Free Spirit 1975 Century Pace Car. (59th Annual Indianapolis 500 - May 25, 1975) which is pretty cool. I was happy. They all hang around on my desk where I can see them all the time. I should put them into the glass cabinet (with all my other spare parts but dagnamit these cars are meant to be driven!

    Dan, you just gave me an excellent idea.

    I'm to start a forum category for Model and Diecast Buicks so we can all post pictures of our Model (or die cast) Buicks. :TU:

    The Model (and Die Cast) Buick Show

    Michael, I'll have the green one and does that black one have green stripes? If it does, then I'll have one of those too.

    Shipping to Australia please :TU:

    Bill,

    Good idea! I'll bet that becomes popular. I'll try to take some good pics of some of my stuff when I borrow a good camera.
