Hi guys,

Hopefully I can get some help here. I've been bit by the model car collecting bug & I'm just new to it all. I've got a couple of models so far from a model shop in Burwood (Model cars of the world). They have been helpful but in my mind a bit pricey.

Could someone steer me in the right direction on where I can pick up mostly Fords (road or race cars) at a reasonable price.

Thanks :) ...

I buy ALL of my Fords from Coffey Ford in Dandenong on the Princess Hwy. The guys there are fantastic, plus they have a lot of V8 Supercar supporters gear from all of the top teams.
As for the other stuff (Subaru's, Monaro's) try sold.com but be weary of the prices. Also, try The Race Place in Seaford on Nepean H'wy (& don't forget the Biante website !!!).
On past expirences I have tried to stay away from Games World as they tend to have over inflated prices for their models.
Hopes this helps,
Cheers.
