What happened to the website?

The "The Super Happy Funtime Virtual Diecast Museum/ The Turnpike Toy Museum" is gone for now.  I enjoyed working on it and the whole collecting experience, but the prices of web hosting kept going up and my advertising revenue kept going down.  So what was once a profitable or break even endeavor lurched consistently into the red.

I still enjoy collecting, but for now, the only public acknowledgment of it will be here and on my youtube channel.  I maintained that site for 16 years and there were over 10,000 photos posted and tons of info dedicated to toy versions of particular makes and models of cars*.  Should I share it again?  Will it be reborn?  Who knows?

But for now I'm thinking I might share these cars via Youtube. Leave a comment if you have an opinion and I guess we'll see.


*(For Example: The Chevy Impala Page that showcased Impalas from 1958 to the present.)

The Turnpike

For those of you in certain parts of the country that don't know, a turnpike is a toll road.  When I had my physical location I was amazed by how many people didn't know that.
