Now that you mention DARE matchbox cars,
I'm looking for the Whiteside County, Ill Corvette.
That one never made it to the shelves around here, due to the location. Anybody got one extra??

I have close to 100 camaro hotwheels. I have maybe 50 different thirdgen camaros. I got seriously addicted to them for a while there. There are alot out there. You just have to look on ebay. I had photos I took for insurance purposes. I think I deleted them cause they were not very good quality.

I saw the new dare cars. I dont have them yet. they still want 5 bucks a piece for them. I used to hate paying the hig prices for them in the package and then turn around and take them out. I hate leaving them in the package. I dont care if it loses value. I dont plan on selling them.
