Diecast collection thread pt 2

[Speedy]

The last of the model/toy cars that were played with as kid



Kept them reasonably scratch free despite many hours of fun with them. Now sitting in a drawer waiting for some space to free up in one of the display cabinets.

The collection is mainly focused on 1/43 scale cars with 370+ race, rally and road cars....with more on the way Have a few 1/76 cars, buses and trucks but they are all on a BMC theme with race and rally Minis, the Competition Department and Special Tuning buses, a BMC dealer service van and a transporter and trailer. In the 1/43 collection the majority are rally cars but there is a steady increase of touring cars of late especially Vauxhalls and in particular cars of John Cleland



Am waiting on the IXO model of Kris Meekes Citroen from this years Monte Carlo Rally to be released so I can get it framed with his gloves from the rally, I know it wasn't his best showing behind the wheel of a rally car but not everyday you get a present of his driving gloves :d

Blast from the past, I think every kid of a certain age had one of these promotional Matchbox Model A vans.
