I have used "football" display cases in the past. The car fits probably best in these with the big wings. I'm up in Canada but I bought mine at a store up here called "Michaels". Its a craft store. Good luck.

I've been wondering the same I can't seem to find any. The 1/24th are easy. I use testors Model cases fo those they just fit with a C.H to spare on top corner of left side wing board. I am about to go buy some wookworking tools and start making my own for the 1/18th seeing how they are so hard to find, and pretty expensive when you do find one.

I use GP Pioneer cases. They are a little long, but the winged car goes in there nicely.
I purchase mine at Hobby Lobby for $14.99. They are long enough that you can add other items to fill out your display if you choose. Here is one with 2 cars in it. One is a 1/18th R&R and the other is a 1/24th Action car. This is just to show the size of the case. It is 15 1/2 x 7 x 6. They are nice, but the next size down does not fit with the wing. Hope this helps.
