That Mustang is sweet. I've never seen one. Is it a main line, or special?

Car Culture Gulf set, pretty cool mix. The mclaren is the best.

It is part of the Gulf Oil line.  The Walmart by me has a bunch if you can’t find it by you.

Dang Chandler, I can't even find the non-TH version of that VW singlecab. The momo Datsun 510 is nowhere to be found either.  That said, full sets of the F&F and Gulf car cultures are EVERYWHERE.  Strange times.

Chase vehicle, 3% of production.

 

edit: kinda like a treasure hunt but if they made 3750 of this model then there are 112 GreenMachine versions out there

Picked up a couple things in the past few days. I blame Javelin's video mentioning the Autoworld website for the Typhoon/Typhoon set.

Want to make your Matchbox Safari Porsche 911 look really good? 

Then watch this week's Miniatures Monday where I showcase detailing the whole car with model paint! 

(Spoiler alert, it looks awesome!)

SWMBO picked up a gallon bucket of cars, mostly matchbox and majorette from an estate sale.  I had some of these as a kid, but they were pretty worn out.  I may have been more excited than The Kid.

This is every version of the late 90’s 917. There is a redline version which is a bit bloated and a modern version that is pretty accurate but this is my favorite. The molds for this were lost during a factory change in 2003 or 2004.

i do have every version of the new casting as well some of which have gone through the roof price wise.

Love Hot Wheels rally cars? Hate the gleaming showroom-fresh look? Want to learn how to weather them easily?

Well you should check out this week's Miniatures Monday because I show you how!

I gifted my Dad an "after the race" die cast model a few years ago.  I thought the 'dirty' effect was pretty cool.  I bet it would be pretty simple to apply to a model for someone with an airbrush and a little practice.

So I've pre-ordered the Tomica Limited Vintage Ferrari F40. I won't see it until May, but I suggest everyone order one. It's beautiful.
