I collect Coca-Cola "stuff". Most of my collection is C-C bottles (1910-present). It has been awhile since I have got a bottle since everthing is now plastic.

I also posted to this one in the SLP lounge:
I collect:
*Dr Pepper stuff,
*Anything that Glows in the Dark,
*Chevrolet dealer stuff that pertains to Camaros or Chevelles or Corvettes,
*Die cast cars & models that are Camaro related (and Chevelles, Corvettes),
*Homestead China that matches the pattern of the dishes my Gramps gave me,
*Tins.
Here are a few pics of some of our collections.
It's all stored away right now as we get ready to remodel the house, but when we can display it all again it'll be like Christmas when we unpack!

Dan, do you read the rec.collecting.coins newsgroup? I'm currently in possession of the "RCC Trime."
Teri, oh, my. The collector bug certainly has visited you!
Steve, no I haven't. I am not really a serious collector. I don't even know what the stuff I have is worth. I just hold on to anything that looks interesting. Still looking for that 1943 copper penny!! I have a bunch of stuff in boxes, jars, etc. No organization or catalogue. I just might be one of those people that actually has something valuable and doesn't know it.

F-body cars - so far I have one.

Dan, Hold on to your stuff. Someday, when you're old and grey, you will have a great time organizing it all.

I collect car road tests from the TV shows. I started taping Motorweek back in 1987. I got the first ZR-1 reviews, '89 Turbo T/A,s, Callaway Slegdehammer, Callaway twin turbos, 300ZX twin turbos, 3000GTVR-4, Stealth, Vipers, early Firehawks, Lingenfelter T/A, Cadillac Northstar cars, etc...I taped as many Motor Trend and Car&Driver shows as my schedule allows. Wish I had the money to own all the cars I taped...It'd be quite a collection.
