Diecast Error Examination |
 |
| |
During our endless hours of internet surfing, we run across error cars - cars that are produced with spelling, labeling, and/or packaging mistakes. Some are commonly known, and a few admittedly catch us off-guard. With the ever-increasing popularity of collecting such cars (many of these are literally 1 of 1 examples that snuck their way past quality control), we are making a concerted effort to document these in the Registry. The purpose of this column is to simply provide a glimpse at some of the errors we have encountered recently. If the market value of a particular error car is significantly greater than it's error-free counterpart, we will elaborate.
Report Diecast Errors - We invite you to e-mail us photos of your diecast error car to place in this column. If your photo is used, we will identify you (or your company) as the source and provide a link to your eBay auctions or website.

Action 2005 Kasey Kahne Autographed Cars - Colorchrome, Richmond Win, & Mountain Dew
|
|
Action Elite 1998 DaleEarnhardt Silver Select
|
|
EliteDiecasts reports that the Kasey Kahne special autographed edition 2005 Dodge Chargers include a COA that says they are 2006 cars. Obviously a COA that lists the wrong model year is not very helpful to authenticate the autograph.
|
|
Cas00 says he is the original owner of this 1:24 Elite received from Action with a Ford Taurus chassis. Has anyone else seen one of these?
