Rick, the beauty of our cars is how easy they are to fix whenever this is a mishap. Just ask Shawn Stafford, he does it all the time with his Anyway, it must be something about the time of year I keep having this issue. Maybe because I just pull it out around this time of the year, so I'm rusty driving it? Anyway, you can help me fix it this weekend if you want

Rob, Indeed, I counted at least 7 "family special" 1982 Weissach's. They all appeared to have the factory original black paint with fine gold metal-flake and 6-speed transmissions.

Waiting on my buddy to send back the permissable pics - I told him this cannot wait beyond today!

Well, I finally received the permitted prints back. They are not all the ones I wanted to show and it is interesting which ones were omitted, but nonetheless, I hope these pictures give you all a good idea of the SCALE of this un-believe-able find!

Amazing to find such a huge collection with no rubbies - hard to tell about sunroofs. What a find!

I can't take all the credit. This one was based on one I read about in a Mopar forum about 20 years ago. They were Chrysler 300 Letter Cars (300A, 300B, etc). Darnit! I forgot to include the part about how they all started right up!

The toy cars idea came from linderpat and WyattsRide's replies. I had no real plans for posting any pictures. When I saw linderpat's wrecked car photo I LMAO and thought it would be hilarious to post a bunch of wrecked 928s as "the photos". I didn't want to detract from their contributions, however, so they became the scaled cars, instead. See? I'm a good person, really! 😁
