Yup I realized that unless they were all Pristine shelf queens, I needed to get the number down to a good mix of completed runners And tidy display cars

Well today marks the end of an era, After the ebay listing ended with no bids I figured I would complete the resto and relist Last night though I got a message from a guy close by who decided he must have So today, service station car park handover and the last of my nitros is gone

Another 2 sold today The shelves are really opening up now Still need to move out a few more, Then I can build the ones in boxes under the bench & have somewhere to display them

Some really nice cars going there man!
Its always a mixed feeling letting then go I find. Years ago I use to build them to sell them, always saving back pieces for one good one for me, but then came a time that I needed to move some of them out for financial reasons . Sometimes like you it's more of a real estate problem as I build and collect other things too ( mostly dust ). However I have also found that my tastes change a bit here and there over the years and I want different things on the shelf. Of course some will never leave, but others could if I am in the right mood . And I always keep in mind that I can find one again if I really miss it, at least with the more popular models.
Thanks for the inspiration, I need to get building some of my back log too.
