Here are my YATMING 1:64's. Condition of some is far from great but they were all .10 to .50. I scavenge yard sales and thrift stores mostly, and made one bulk haul of 250+ cars (all brands) from a junk dealer last year for $100, including many of these Yatmings and about 50 vintage Hot Wheels from the 70's & 80's. Hope you all can find something here you haven't seen before! I can use ID numbers on the 3 trucks, also a brand name for the green truck. I have other angle shots of all these as well. db ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Edited by daisybat, Dec 22 2010, 11:45 AM.

Wow! I see a few color schemes I've never seen before! And I never knew Yat Ming did that Chinook? helicopter, either.Not sure about the brand of the green semi cab though. I wish I could help! |

Support your local demo derby.

Very cool finds. The light blue '53 Caddy convertible is a harder to find casting. The '76 Caddy is a copy of a Tomica casting. The Jag is a copy of a MB model I think - Swifty can clarify that. Great scores for all of them being $0.50 or less. |

Thanks! The copter is a Boeing Vertol CH-46 Sea Knight Helicopter (wikipedia photos!!!) The desert camo pack also included a missile launcher version of the LAV tank; mine's missing the launcher so I didn't post it, the base is the same. Here's a number listing: 80180s Camaro (light & dark yellow) 802Ferrari 328 GTB (blue & red) 803Pontiac Firebird 804BMW 850i 805Toyota Celica 807Mazda RX-7 (blue w/light & dark tampos, purple) 808Nissan 240 SX 810Honda Prelude (orange & met. orange) 812Mercedes-Benz 500 SL 817Lamborghini Miura 818Honda Civic 820Mercedes-Benz 380 SEL 821Mercedes-Benz 190 E (red, white & blue) 836Mercedes-Benz E Class ?

You're 100% correect- the E-Type is not a copy of the Matchbox casting. At that period Yat Ming was definitely known for making scaled down copies of other cars (the #1024 Boss Mustang is a copy of the Matchbox Superfast '73, and that's why it's so tiny!). The E-Type is likely a copy of something in the 1/24, 1/36, or 1/43 scales, or perhaps even a model kit. |

The green truck I am 95% certain is a GMC or possibly Chevy cabover, mid 60's. Compared to Ford cabovers of the era, there's not a lot of them out there. Sweet haulage! I'm loving the military stuff, the Caddy and the Jag. Edited by juantoo3, Dec 28 2010, 12:26 PM.
