The 1970 Ford Mustang 428 SCJ (Super Cobra Jet) was a rare, high-performance variant, primarily found in the Mach 1, featuring the powerful 428ci V8 with Drag Pack options like Ram Air and Detroit Locker, built for drag racing dominance with upgrades like staggered rear shocks and reinforced suspension, distinguishing itself from the standard Cobra Jet with internal components like stronger connecting rods, making it an iconic, powerful, and sought-after muscle car of its era, with only about 1,100 total 428 SCJ Mustangs produced that year.

M2 Machines 1:64: 1971 Chevrolet G10
The Chevrolet van or Chevy van (also known as the Chevrolet/GMC G-series vans and GMC Vandura) is a range of vans that was manufactured by General Motors from the 1964 to 1996 model years. Introduced as the successor for the rear-engine Corvair Corvan/Greenbrier, the model line also replaced the panel van configuration of the Chevrolet Suburban. The vehicle was sold both in passenger van and cargo van configurations as well as a cutaway van chassis that served as the basis for a variety of custom applications.
Produced across three generations (1964-1966, 1967-1970, and 1970-1996), the model line was sold under a wide variety of model names under both the Chevrolet and GMC brands. The first two generations were forward control vehicles (with the engine placed between the seats); the third generation adopted a configuration placing the engine forward of the driver. The second and third generations shared powertrain commonality with the C/K pickup truck model line.
After the 1996 model year, GM retired the G-Series vans, replacing them with the GMT600-platform Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana.
Hot Wheels 1:64: Ford Model A Custom '31
The Ford Model A (also colloquially called the A-Model Ford or the A, and A-bone among hot rodders and customizers) is the Ford Motor Company's second market success, replacing the venerable Model T which had been produced for 18 years. It was first produced on October 20, 1927, but not introduced until December 2. This new Model A (a previous model had used the name in 1903-04) was designated a 1928 model and was available in four standard colors.
By February 4, 1929, one million Model As had been sold, and by July 24, two million. The range of body styles ran from the Tudor at US$500 (in grey, green, or black) ($9,156 in 2024 dollars) to the town car with a dual cowl at US$1,200 ($21,974 in 2024 dollars). In March 1930, Model A sales hit three million, and there were nine body styles available.
Model A production ended in March 1932, after 4,858,644 had been made in all body styles. Its successor was the Model B, which featured an updated inline four-cylinder engine, as well as the Model 18, which introduced Ford's new flathead (sidevalve) V8 engine.
Matchbox 1:64: 1995 BMW 318ti
The BMW 3 Series Compact is a car which was produced from 1994 through 2004 by BMW. It is a 3-door hatchback version of the BMW 3 Series through two generations, for the E36 platform in 1993 and E46 platform in 2001. Unlike most hatchback competitors which were transverse engine front-wheel drive, the 3 Series Compact uses the longitudinal engine rear-wheel drive layout.
In 2004, the 3 Series Compact was replaced by the 1 Series which encompassed 3-door and 5-door hatchback, coupé and convertible body styles (the coupé and convertible models have been marketed separately as the 2 Series since 2014) as BMW's entry-level cars; a new nameplate was created since the 1 Series is smaller than the contemporary 3 Series despite sharing mechanical components. The 3 Series GT, introduced in 2013, is not a successor to the 3 Series Compact, despite also using a hatchback rear opening.
Matchbox: 1964 AMC Jeep Wagoneer
The Jeep Wagoneer is a luxury 4x4 produced and marketed under the Jeep brand from the 1963 to 1991 model years. Introduced as the replacement for the Jeep Station Wagon, the Wagoneer was the first Jeep model line completely distinct from the Jeep CJ. Designed as a truck-based station wagon, the model line became a progenitor of the modern sport-utility vehicle (SUV).
Designed by a team led by industrial designer Brooks Stevens, the Wagoneer shared its Jeep SJ chassis with the Jeep Gladiator full-size pickup truck (later renamed the J-Series). Alongside the five-door wagon, the Wagoneer was also marketed as a three-door wagon and a two-door panel truck (effectively giving Jeep its own van). After 1968, the Wagoneer was sold exclusively as the five-door wagon; the three-door wagon was reintroduced as the Jeep Cherokee for 1974.
Along with developing a sport-utility vehicle smaller than the Chevrolet Suburban and International Travelall, Jeep conceived the Wagoneer to balance the capabilities and features of both an off-road vehicle and a premium-brand sedan or station wagon. The higher-content Super Wagoneer was introduced for 1966, upgrading the model line with features from higher-priced sedans. From 1971 to 1991, in line with flagship station wagons, the model line featured (simulated) woodgrain paneling on the exterior body sides. Following the 1984 introduction of the Jeep XJ Cherokee (which received a wood-paneled Wagoneer trim), the SJ Wagoneer became the Grand Wagoneer for the rest of its production.
Under a single generation, the SJ-series Wagoneer was produced for 29 model years (currently the third longest run in U.S. automotive history), as Jeep changed hands from Kaiser Motors to AMC to Chrysler. For its entire production, Jeep manufactured the Wagoneer in its Stickney Plant in Toledo, Ohio. Following a short-lived 1993 revival of the nameplate as a flagship version of the Jeep Grand Cherokee (again using exterior wood trim), the nameplate remained dormant for three decades until the introduction of the largest Jeep SUVs ever designed, the WS-chassis Wagoneer/Grand Wagoneer.
Adventure Force Nano RC 1:64: Ford Bronco
Took a chance on a cheap small scale RC. My smallest one!
Not the greatest as far as RC performance, but the size is neat.
Hex Mod RC 1:28: Night Hawk RC Car
Purchased at about 55% off NIB!! Glad not to pay full price for something that is more toy grade than hobby grade. But, a fun "toy"!
