First Coast Hot Wheels Collector's Meeting. head at Mount Carmel Gardens, 5846 Mount Carmel Terrace.
We're very excited that our club has grown so much since we started back in 2000.* Our club is primarily geared for the Hot Wheels collector, but many of our members trade and collect a variety of cars from MB, JL, Ertl & many others. During our meetings we sell/trade cars and race for prizes! There's custom cars available to members too. We are very family oriented and take part in charity causes. Everyone is invited and is encouraged to bring a friend, and by all means, bring the family!* We are primarily an adult club, but children can also come and join as long as they are accompanied by an adult.* Visitors can attend two meetings for free and after that would have to be considered for membership. We meet the second Tuesday of every month at 6pm to discuss what we want to do as a club (charities, toy shows, etc.), then at 7pm the trading and racing begin!
