I found this Cat xls in my friends basement, its in perfect condition, it looks like it may have been run maybe once but not much...I asked him how much he wanted for it and he just gave it to me... he said he was going to "throw it out anyway, this basement is a disaster"....I was like ok...let me give you some $ for it....he said no just buy me a beer next time we go out!!!!!!!!!SCORE!!!!!so now i have this mint condition CAT XLS and i also won a CAT XLS NIB on ebay about a year ago for $250 buty it now....the guy must not have know he could have gotten at least 3 time that......oh well here is a pic of the built Cat from my friends basment.

OMG!!!

The stuff of dreams..... have a quick look in your loft - you might find the original copy of the Bible!

Wow, lucky man!

Can you give us a bigger picture of your pegboard arrangement? Looks nice and tidy.

Here are just a few other pics of the stuff i have, the vintage stuff i have is on the wall or in boxes, most of the stuff hanging on the wall or in boxes is new never used or unbuilt...the stuff on the shelves are a mix of some use some new builds...most of the stuff on the shelves is not as vintage as the stuff on the wall.

Is that a good thing, or a bad thing?

Please do me a favor, buy your friend a very large beer and make sure that it is a really good one. Incidentally, congratulations to this beautiful collection. The cat is now living in a very decent society.

In the context that I think it is meant in this case is a good thing Its a kind of exclamation like 'WOW'

you do it all alright!! would love a few planes and chopper's myself. get some more vintage pics up mate!!

Oh my GOD you have a ton of cars. I think my wife would strangle me in my sleep.....

nice stuff - you're a man of taste

May I suggest you don't put all the weight of these cars on their tires, as this piano wire will leave some nasty marks on them rare rubber chunks !

You need to let us know all in detail what you have in there
