Rennsport Display Cases
I saw these display cases at the Rennsport Reunion last year but have misplaced the contact info. Anybody have a contact for the maker of these? Thanks. -- Curt

When I saw those cases at the event I couldn't help but thinking about how great they'd look in my study. Then I saw the price and realized I wouldn't have one for a long long time. Sorry, but I don't have any vendor info but seem to remember them being in the $750 to $1,000 range.

Curt, I think that the guy must be fairly local to Lime Rock, I see him & the cases every time I go.
If you can hold out till spring I'll get a card from him.

Try here:http://www.clearvuedisplays.com/gas_station_pumps.htm
I used the search, 'Shell gas pump display case.' There are some other sites that don't seem too expensive. As it was suggested before, a blank was purchased and the Porsche was custom added. When in Rome..... The next show the guy probably had Piper Cub on the same case. |

Thanks Milt! I'm pretty sure the ones at Rennsport were in the $800-$1000 range and I seem to recall talking to the guy and he indicated he made them himself. Could be mistaken though.

Curt, I think the company that you're looking for is Showcases Unlimited. They are in E. Haddam, CT and the phone # is 860 873 2243.
They also have a website... showcasesunlimited.com I saw their ad in Forza magazine and they appear to be the same displays that I saw at Lime Rock. Disclaimer: Although it is true that I was looking through Forza, I would like to state for the record that I did not inhale. ![]()
