Nice finds. those Johnnys are nice. I believe that race car with the yellow wing is kinda rare to find with the wing attached.

None of those cars are common, those early Corgi Juniors NSU and Caddy are short run with those wheels,the Playart Mustang hardtop and Toyota 2000GT are also very desirable castings that make good money on ebay- rare and lovely lot to enjoy or pass on to other collectors to enjoy

I don't know about that... I left about 20 matchbox from the same era :freak:
I almost grabbed the one for a buck, the rare red Mustang (not the turning wheels one, but the later style). It was nice paint, but AS-IS, the base came loose and it was missing the interior.... but for that price I should have grabbed it lol.
Looking through Steve Beckett's Husky/Corgi Jr site reminded by of another toy I bought from the same dealer, a Tipping Trailer, but the one I got I think is from the Corgi line and not the Jr line, but still same vintage.
the toppers are a nice find ,they are hard to find in any cond.

I decided to post them on EvilBay if you didn't already notice.. they are cool, but I have too many other things going on right and my life is still kinda upside down. Maybe after things get back to a normalcy I will find some to keep :drunk:

I am crazy, but I knew that was a good deal :P
