I was bored yesterday and did this. The bases for the display cases I have say "Nascar" on them and it is raised up a little. The cars I have displayed in them aren't race cars so I decided to sand out the "Nascar" name and then painted the bases matte black. I left the cracked road details, I think they look better black.

Okay last pics I promise. The cars are back in their display cases. I like the black base, looks like the Impala is kinda floating there.

Here is something pretty cool that my late Brother-in-law had that my sis gave me. This is the Mattel Batmobile that the 6 inch figures fit into. The box does not open or I would take it out for some really cool pictures, the ends are glued. Anyway, the box was a little dirty so I cleaned it up a little. The box art is really cool!!!

I hate to be that guy, but can you resize the pics ? They are nearly twice the width of my screen.

Oh dang sorry. See if this may be smaller. My bad, I had selected the original size when I posted. Let me know if these are better.

The smaller size looks a little blurry on my end, I selected the small size option.
Here is one that is the medium option. I just realized that the artwork on the ends of the box has a misprint and says "WROOM" instead of "VROOM", I wonder if they are all like that?

On my laptop the pics are nice and clear, the big ones and the small ones. Funny, I did not even see the Wroom until you pointed it out.

Thanks, glad the pics look good and won't be a nuisance by being too large. The last few times I posted pics I had selected the "original" size not realizing that it would make them huge, I normally select "medium" and will go back to that.

I had not noticed the "wroom" on the box ends either, it has to be a misprint but every one that I have seen is like that. I guess they figured no one would really pay attention to it, I just find it funny that it says "wroom" instead of "vroom". Seems that would add to the collectability of the box for sure, kinda like a factory defect Hot Wheels.
