Together with it's younger Impy brother, when cost cutting was word of the day. No opening features, plastic base and no interior. Hey, sounds like a Maisto...

Nice finds of a great casting. I've never seen any of those in person. Thanks for the pics.

Although Lone Star Impy is an European brand, the Mustang is quite a rare catch over here...

Hi Henri,

VERY NICE Lone Star / Impy Mustangs ! It took me a long time to add a Lone Star and Impy Mustang to my collection. Here they are ....

Here are a few other odd ball / rare 1:64 Mustangs in my collection ....

AMT PUP '68 Mustang and a ELDON '67 Mustang (made in Spain)

And last but not least .... a Barton Magic Toy '66 Mustang Coupe (plastic body/metal base).... note the similar BP design to an original HW RL BP.

The only 1:64 Corgi Mustangs I have are the '79 Mustang hatchback body style. Are there others ?

Scott, that are some nice old die casts! I love the Impy box!! I only have the older style boxes, not this 'new' design.

Regarding Mini Dinky's: I have the three Corvettes ('57, '63 and some early 70-s) who are all originally made by Kidco. All three are MIB but on the back of the blister is no mention of any Mustang...

Hope the pictures are OK.

Hi Andrew,

nice collection. Only 1/64?

Hi tompb001,

Yeah all most all are 1/64 or smaller. They take up less space than the larger ones. althoughit is awful tempting to get some of the larger scale mustangs out there. (wife won't like it very much though if I did - lol)
