The Mustang II is a Mustang too!
Some interesting finds! I believe the Euclid dump truck (that's the brand of dump truck, not the diecast) is actually a Mini-Dinky. Very nice find if indeed it is!

The green Ford GT70 is a Corgi knockoff by Tintoys.

The white with stars & stripes GTO is by Summer.

Dust Devil pickup is a Maisto Ford F-150.

Silver Porsche is a Zylmex.

And a lot of the construction equipment seems to share the same wheels with the Euclid dump truck- might all be the same manufacturer (possibly Mini-Dinky).

The yellow hot rod under 'Unknown Makers' would be a Tootsietoy. Very, very commonly found- every one had 'em back in the day.

It wasn't a copy- Mattel bought Corgi, and the tooling was recycled into the Hot Wheels range when the Corgi name was sold off.
