HPI Savage big block

Boy if I made a list of every car I've owned it would be a crazy length but of course many of them have gone, turned over for parts, projects and general running and tinkering with. I sometimes imagine what my collection would look like if I lined up every car I'd ever had, but it doesn't work that way, many were sold obviously to fund the next one that came along :D I would imagine I have had 300 plus cars or so go through my hands since early 2004... I'd currently have about 80 cars, the wife says I'm allowed a total of 100 (at one time), after that I'm not sure what would happen :P
