Jeff, first of all Welcome to Swiftys Garage. I love your collection JLs but I think the orange Cuda is a GreenLight but your pics are outstanding. We love pics here on Swiftys. I see in the background there more chances of more pics coming from you! Thank You for sharing!

Welcome aboard!

Some great stuff there!

If you like all kinds of diecast, you found the right place!

From Military Muscle release 1 (2003).
There were two versions of it produced.
The other one was part of Hollywood On Wheels release 4.

Jeff, welcome to "The Garage".
You have taken pictures of some very nice JL castings plus one Greenlight.

Cheers. Cobra

And a question for you, Jeff:
Is the roof on your casting illustratred above spider-webbed?
I have this casting and mine is spider-webbed.
That is quite unusual for JL castings.
I wondered if it appeared on others from this release.
Maybe, mine is a one-of-akind.

Cheers. Cobra

1969 Yenko Nova.
This vehicle is a "wild ride" at the best of times.
Also referred to as "lethal".
Light weight, short wheelbase, and a 427 CID under the hood.
One year wonder, as in how did anyone survive driving one of these absolute monsters on the street.
In 1970, Don Yenko came out with the Yenko Deuce (350 CID LT1 engine) which was a little bit more civilized.

I like this version produced by Playing Mantis.
Thanks for the pictures.

Cheers. Cobra

Support your local demo derby.

Welcome to the Garage Jeff. :wave: You've got good taste in the older issue JLs spread out between GM and the Mopar division.
