Jim Beam whiskey decanters...

Before my Dad died 2 years ago, he collected these collectible decanters of Jim Beam whiskey, that are basically toy cars.

Each one is about a foot and a half long, and my Mom has the Model T, Stanley Steamer, and several others.

Anyone else here have them?

(I know many of the DU'ers here would want them just for the whiskey still inside them...)

My wife's uncle gave me a Walleye decanter in the 70's . Still unopened. And it has a Lindy jigs in it's mouth.......

Like, somebody asked me why I wanted this honey/sugar bowl if I don't use sugar. It ain't the contents. I drank Dan AKROYD's vodka but only to get at the bottle:
