I collect the, I probably have 15 or 20 plus the 6 Daytona Coupes from Exoto. When I ordered the set they were just producing one a month end if you got the whole set they wold then make a stainless one highly polished for you. I have been offered $500 for the Stainless one and Exoto doesn't make them any more from what I have heard. I got sever from them and their detail is exact and signed by Shelby. But they were expensive even back then. I have had people come over to look at them who were building a Coupe to see how the originals were done.

I also have about 1,200 other die casts in boxes that I have no room to display. Some are just cheapies and others are rare NASCAR cars such as the one that Dale Earnhardt crashed at Talladega, right down to the last bent piece of metal. This was not the car he was killed in. So far as I could find out they never made a model of that one or I would have it.
