Did a deal for 10 cars from the Strauss collection, and picked them up from Mark and Mike. Could not resist and accidentally bought 2 more.



The white interior open wheelers and Peeping Bomb are from Strauss:



Cool HK white Ford J-car with black painted front grill (Strauss) and an open shock Vicky (patwheels):



Honey gold Cuda



Some pictures from Mark and Mike's room (1830). First, the protos on display, but not yet for sale, including 9 rear-loading Beach Bombs.







The over-chrome Camaro really stands out!



Some more beaters that they brought along:











Black roof VW:



Red Jet Threat and light green Mutt Mobile.



An ocean of loose redlines for sale:



More beaters:









Buy a Hot Wheels Prototypes book in room 902!

A genuine purple 442 can be had in room 616, for the right price.
