The spoils from that massive tat box at Barleylands:

A pair of Chinese made Matchbox 928s

And this Husky Zephyr Estate formerly belonging to Denis, as it still has its tailgate

Further along I picked up this trio for 50p each. Guy was amazed when I mentioned restoring toy cars

Those Porsche 928’s are quite scarce, they’re from an early 90’s Smash and Crash.

Good evening all, I've been delving into boxes of quality tat this evening. Anyone for a Miniature Tat sale once I've finished making dinner?

 

For the last time, I've had to remind myself not to buy any more bloody diecast. I've already got way more than enough and I need to start selling things rather than buy more.

Count me in!

Oh bugger!  I wish I'd known, I'm in need of a Tex Dinoco (I think that's his name); the gold Cadillac.  He's a Coupe deVille, 75 or 76 so slightly younger than Huggy, but I'm sure I could work out a satisfactory conversion.  If anybody sees one at tat-box prices, I want it!

Is this available?  If so, yes please.  Can we start a box to make it worthwhile shipping?

1959 Chevrolet if I'm not mistaken

Yes, the '59 Daytona 500, Bob Welborn car, no less.  Nice in that livery.  Welborn started on pole but engine let go on lap 75.  He had five poles and three wins that year.

Those were the days: GM provided a '59 Impala Sport Coupe from a local dealership, the team stripped it down and built a race car around it.  Then got sponsorship from a plumbing firm!

Apart from that, notice the car in the back is a '58 Ford CONVERTIBLE

Thanks. Those are makes I'd never heard of. I must have been using the wrong search terms. I'll set up some saved searches and see if one crops up for a reasonable budget. 

Any ideas for a 6N? I've seen some rally spec ones on the bay but no normal ones. I think I've seen normal looking 6N models years back in shops but can't recall the manufacturer.

What are they up to?

Is it a blag?

No, it's proof I've been in and out, and in and out, of way too many charity shops recently and gone a bit around the twist.
