Default Diecast models

As me and my buddies were out this weekend, kinda blasted, we stopped by a hobby store. Cool place. Anyhow, I saw two models, I had to buy. They were both CTS-V race cars but, with NO DECALS. One is black, the other is all white. Didn't take a picture myself,....but here's a link to a picture of the white one.

Awesome models.

Nice! I picked-up the Black AutoArt CTS-VR for my wife...for a Christmas present. She absolutely loved it, as she knew it took quite a bit of sacrifice on my part not keeping it myself.
Mine has all the stickers, though...and is a fantastic example of the car. Amazing details, even down to the interior.

I'd love to grab a plain black one, and then paint the rims black...so it matches my car come Spring!

FYI... I bought three 1:18 CTS-VR cars off ebay. All three are numbered and made by AUTOart. Last one was signed by Angelelli.

These look like the AutoArt "blanks". The hood, wing, exhaust outlets and tow hooks all match the two AutoArt models I have. I bought the #8 Pilgrim and the #16 Angelelli. I paid $69 off ebay.

The two that I bought, were 1 of 3000 from autoart. Came with certificates and all.

I paid 74.00 and change each.

They look tight with my collection and finally, a diecast model I don't have to take apart to add wheels, rollcage, etc etc.

That's what I have too. The Angelelli is 1 of 6,000 and the Pilgrim is 1 of 3,000.

my box's and certificates say 1 of 3000 on both. I could be mistaken, since I'm eating pain pills like tick tacs right now.

Not exactly sure man,....I just know that I was the first to give stealth V a problem on there,...ever since that...got little bit a **** here and there. The last time,...that little queer urb and I went at it. I called him prison bitch, more then 20 times...and I don't think he like the reality of that. Next thing I know,..i'm out. Also REED is a big fat ******* dork. He had alot to do with it.

No problem here with that. Just noone had the ***** to tell me I was banned. I had to contact reed, and he pussed out, said he had nothing to do with it. Then I emailed Sal,...and he replied and said "after several complaints from members, I was banned"....or some **** like that.

Thats fine. I hope everyone enjoyed all of my links to code probelms, and all the help I tried to give.

Ungreatful bastards.


Aside form that gayness...the accident with the two girls... the one died. The other lived.

Was just talking about that yesterday actually, kinda ironic.

Messed up situation.

Sometimes there are good diecast cars on www.exoticar.com I have bought stuff from there. Anything under $30 should be skipped.
