A tour thru “The Vault” my personal collection of kits

Today we take a look into “The Vault” my personal collection of kits.

[@dhurt8955]

Thanks for sharing your collection, as a person born in 1960 as a kid growing up model building was a big thing in my childhood. Now as an adult I can finally afford kits that I couldn’t buy in my youth. I hope to share my passion and joy of model building with my grandchildren. Kids don’t appreciate models like we did.

[@westies1962]

You are so right!

[@geoffhipwell2198]

WOW Louie!! That's got to be the best 'collection' and 'display' I've ever seen!! You've really got some cool stuff there Buddy. I'm very impressed, & Yes I did enjoy the tour. I can't wait to see more of your very, very special stuff. 👌👍👍

[@johndillon8051]

Very nice stash, and the best part is you're a builder and not just a collector!

[@alancyr3100]

Thanks for showing us you collection. Great to see all those kits just waiting to be the subject of your next build.

[@roysradscalemodels9031]

Wow what a nice collection thanks for sharing. Nice work

[@DonBroyles73]

So many memories came racing back while watching this. I have one of the green '77 Novas that I built as a tribute to the '78 I had in high school. You have a great collection.

[@allenrudisill2082]

[@bigchef2112]

Nice tour. Like the way you display with the box.👍👍

[@LarrysModelShop]

You have a great display of your builds and I really like your idea of showcasing the model on top of the box. Very cool stash!

[@JDsHouseofHobbies]

Very cool way of displaying your finished kits. Man, I wish I could find some of the goodies you have! lol

[@PontiacBanker]

Great way to display the model and box art.

I’m so jealous of your Jo Han collection 🤣. That police pursuit wagon is my holy grail kit. Thanks for the tour , that was fun.

[@ruanecrummett9261]

Very impressive that's a cool model collection louie

[@rbaldino]

Really nice collection and display. I especially like the little Scirocco on top of the display case. My dad had a Mk.1 Scirocco when I was a kid and it was really fun to ride around in.

[@johnwwest8407]

Impressive builds and stash Louie!

[@lancerevell5979]

I am deeply envious! A superb collection. Several of them I also have or had - built or still boxed. Many more on my "to get" list! 😎👍

[@redshirtmodels5757]

[@jamiegsscalemodelgarage3823]

Hey Louie great stach of kits you have one of my grail kits MPC Smokey convoy chaser .

[@no.email.please]

That's impressive! I really like the model boxes under each kit, they do take up allot of room though. Nice 😊 (MODEL CAR)(MAN CAVE)

[@Randyshotrods]

Great video. Love the vault.

[@MainahTony]

THANKS for showing it all!! very cool idea to pin up the boxes// dusting all those must take forever

[@TheAutisticModeler]

Yes!!

[@goratgo1970]

Frigin' awesome - just like you Louie. Very well done, no shakey Jake and well arranged vault and displays! Some of my faves are when you build up the box art with it displayed as such. Also nice as a viewer to see where the greatness comes from - I look forward to more postings for sure - cheers!

[@hortonshotrodshop2003]

Man you have a nice stash in the vault like the idea of a box art bases. The dodge vans and warlock are sweet

[@denislandry7577]

You have been buzy ! Lol well done

[@davidparsleyscustomscaleemerge]

FANTASTIC!!! A museum for sure. Thanks so much for the walk through Louie.

[@KarlScaleModeling]

Oh wow, that's amazing Louie! Your vault is huge with all those kits and stuff and your classic items are so cool. Well done 👍🏼👍🏼

[@michaelsullivan1262]

Beautifully kept and displayed treasures! 🖖🏼

[@valleyshaverjohn2821]

Nice collection. Do you have a favorite model or type of model.? I know it took you years to accumulate all of these.

[@TheAutisticModeler]

My favorite kit of all time is the 68 Johan police cars.

[@olafwittig8477]

Cool....

[@TJRohyans]

That's a huge collection! and I'm also impressed by the number of completed kits. Where does your spray booth vent hose go?

[@ScaleModelCarBuilder]

Really nice video! I enjoyed the tour and how creative it is to place the built kit on the box it came in, on the wall. Look forward to all your future work!

[@TheAutisticModeler]

I really want to build that on my program but the decals are shot

[@haroldburch541]

Very awesome video! I think your vault is amazing, and I really like how you display your models on the boxes, what a great idea!!! Would you mind sharing how you secure the boxes to the wall, and do you tape the lids so they won't slide open? You have really got it going on! Thank you for showing us your collection ,vault and work area! Best video I have seen in a long time! 👍👍👍

[@TheAutisticModeler]

I’m glad you enjoyed the tour!! For the boxes, I just use a push pin. The box tops stay on good, the only ones I had problems with were the revell kits that “Flipped” open. Those are clunky boxes.

[@haroldburch541]

Thank you very much, that is one of the best display ideas I have seen! I truly enjoy all of your builds and tips on modeling! Thank you again! 👍👍👍

[@jamesmcansh6393]

Thanks for sharing such an amazing collection ! How long have you been building ? And your wife must be very supportive lol 😂✌🏻🇨🇦✌🏻

[@TheAutisticModeler]

Thank you, I’ve been building since the early eighties, so about 7-8 years old. My wife is EXTREMELY supportive. She is one of the main ones who helped me build my channel.

[@sikorskykid]

Awesome. stuff that was a great tour. Where are the airplane models? Thought I would see some. Loved the vault..

[@TheAutisticModeler]

I have only built maybe 3 aircraft and two were helicopters. Aircraft just doesn’t inspire me. Thanks for watching!!

[@carlclink9993]

Wow 👍

[@sandman_7326]

That's where all the 77 Chevy Nova's are . Lol

[@richardbates2367]

I have the 82 Pontiac Grand Prix Kyle Petty monogram NASCAR stocker came with the 81 Buick Regal stocker Richard Petty actually i think i have that backwards anyway I painted it like a NASCAR being built.

[@JimFlanagan4206]

Nice stash. I wouldn't call those kits brand new. Use the automotive term, New Old Stock😄

[@TheAutisticModeler]

Love it!! I’m stealing that term!!!

[@MainahTony]

lots of vans :) no VISIBLE VAN? i have that one dont see that around much!

[@richardbates2367]

The 76 mpc dodge dart street machine did they re release the kit or are they the original one ive been hunting one for a few parts missing from my dads the grille hood scoop and the hood and radiator i think it needs the front bumper too been hunting it since around 1994

[@docholliday7777]

I'm going to copy you the way you put your cars on the wall thank you

[@davidimrie6916]

Nice collection!! What is your take on the Salvinos kits??

[@TheAutisticModeler]

I really like them!! Great subject matter and really high quality. AND 100% made in USA!!

[@dblducecreations]

Amazing! How are the boxes attached to the wall?

[@TheAutisticModeler]

Just a push pin.

[@dblducecreations]

@@TheAutisticModeler I thought that was the case. Thank you Louie! You have an awesome collection and love your channel! Keep 'em comin'!
