Just took a big chance on this auction, but that gold car and that red car look an awful lot like 2 Jet Wheels Corvairs along with a Cougar. Can anyone identify the pink AMX? Playart? I think the other bidders were distracted by the Matchbox Pontiac and HW Sizzlers. Closing bid was $88.87. I'll be crossing my fingers until this package arrives. I'm also happy about the Cigarbox T-Bird and Speedy Porsche uh Ferrari.

Wish I could help you on the Corvairs, but I'm not familiar with them enough to ID them, but I spy two gorgeous red Ferrari's, the Matchbox 250 Berlinetta and a Speedy 330 P4! If you are willing to part with either please let me know!

Ben, I need to compare the Matchbox to the one I already have, then I'll send you new pics. The speedy, unfortunately, is MINE!

No problem! I have a different numbered version of the Speedy already, so one will have to do. You will love it though, the base is the best part, with a big Ferrari logo on it.

Who makes the car with the Red Cross? The military trailer?

Is the blue car a slot car body?

It is sad that many were melted with some idiot with a lighter.

That would be a Husky or Corgi Juniors Studebaker ambulance wagon with the sliding roof torn off. The green trailer is also a Corgi Juniors. It goes great with their red farm tractor. If you are referring to the blue car with the black striped hood, I think it's a Mini Lindy Maverick.

Yeah...the purple Poncho is a great find by itself. Are the two wreckers Lindbergh? Even if they aren't what you hope, you got an awesome score. The yellow/tan one sure looks like a Corvair from the angle, not sure about the other. I see the red Corvair now...good eyes!

The two wreckers are Lindberg - the first picture top right is definitely from the AMT/Mego/Jet Wheels family.

That could very well be a Jet Wheel Corvair on the top right in the first pic ... On my wish list!

To the left of that might be the AMX ...

Eric, should I ever kick my diecast addiction, you can buy my drugs off of me. They would look great next to your drugs. :toy:

I will definitely post pics for all of us to enjoy. I've enjoyed your collection many times (Love the Buick!).

That and the blue No.1 car above it are Hot Wheels Sizzlers. The No. 92 car is a Speedy Ferrari.

I didn't even see the blue one! I assume it's a Ford GT40, correct?
