SCHUCO 1/43 VW T2A PORSCHE FACTORY VAN
In 1968, the second generation Volkswagen T2 Minibus was introduced. It was built in Germany until 1979. Models before 1971 are called T2a while models after 1972 are called T2b. This second-generation Minibus was slightly larger and considerably heavier than its predecessor. At 1.6 liter displacement and 48 hp, the engine was also slightly larger. The new model had half-shaft axles fitted with CV joints, which raised ride height. The T2b was introduced by way of gradual change over three years. The first models had unique body features, such as curvaceous bumpers with the front bumper wrapping around to form the step when the door was opened, front doors that opened to 90 degrees from the body and crescent air intakes in the D pillars. They also had unique engine hatches, and up until 1972 front turn signals set low on the nose, giving rise to their German nickname 'Low Lights'. Over its long life, VW made the T2 in a wide variety of configurations including the classic Minibus, delivery van, and the Combi, a useful platform for custom commercial designs. See more

Shelby Cobra 427 S/C Diecast Model Blue 1/18 Die Cast Car By Shelby Collectables
If its muscle you want, Shelby's got plenty. The Shelby Mustang has its genesis in the 1960s and the name of famed Formula One racer Carroll Hall Shelby behind it. About 1,000 of these red, white, blue or green GT350H cars were produced and, today, are much sought after by collectors of running models (and selling for well over $100,000) as well as die cast car enthusiasts.
Beautifully crafted 1965 Blue Shelby Cobra 427 S/C Diecast Model Car. AC Cobras had an extensive racing career. The Cobra was perhaps too successful in the performance department and reputedly contributed to the implementation of national speed limits in the United Kingdom. A fine addition to any collection.
WELLY 1/18 1970 MERCURY COUGAR ELIMINATOR DIECAST MODEL CAR
Mercury was produced by Ford in 1939 as an entry-level luxury car. It was a few rungs on the ladder below the prestigious Lincoln, but far more classy than a standard sedan or coupe. That strategy echoes the parent company's 90-year-old philosophy of making Mercury an entr'e to Lincoln ownership. Alternatively you can make a diecast model car replica a entr'e to actual Mercury ownership.
1970 was the second year for the Cougar Eliminator. The Eliminator package includes special graphics, spoiler, front air-dam and 351 windsor engine. This beautifully crafted 1970 Green Mercury Cougar Eliminator Diecast Model Car would make a fine addition to any collection.
