Hello from the USAHi all,
My name is John and I am an accountant slogging along in a cubicle in Columbia, SC, USA.
I first became interested in diecast collecting with Hot Wheels and Matchbox Superfast. Soon after, I discovered companies like Corgi and Dinky.
Specifically, I collect American muscle cars and have a few Corgis and Dinkys, along with some obscure stuff like Nacoral and Sabra.
Looking forward to chatting with y'all.

Hello & John, good to have you with us.
I'm a big fan of American Muscle cars too - have you seen the range from Matchbox Collectibles (not the Matchbox Dinky range)? They take some beating! Here's a link to a previous post about these:

Again, thanks for the warm welcome.
Duncan,
About 6 years ago, a local discount store here had some Matchbox cars I bought. They were 1/43 scale and came in a tannish colored box. Since then, two kids have joined my family, so most of my toys have gotten packed away, but I'll try to remember what I got.
Seems like they included a purple Baracuda, a navy blue Chevelle, a brown Road Runner and I know there was a lime green car, maybe a Super Bee.
At the same time, the store had the cars with Coca Cola, Budweiser logos, etc. but I didn't get any of those.
