i used to collect the ertl muscle cars for about 5 years. i regret that i had to sell my collection back around 2003 but it was a fun ride while it lasted. i wonder if anyone here was into them as much as i was.

[starsky]

yeah, i'm into them but i only collect the tv star car ones. they're pretty cool and i'm still hoping someone makes the green hornet black beauty either ertl or mattel!

I have a varied collection. Mostly trying to get all the Chevy Vega diecast models now. Sold off some at a yard sale as my collection outgrew my storage.

yep, i had the american grafitti set,the fast and the furious charger and the hot wheels 1989 batmobile (which i really shouldn't have gotten rid of)

[goldenryan]

it seem to me once the auto-industries were starting to go under many of the collectors who were into muscle cars stop caring cause "bigger things" were on their minds .

[theressa]

Yeah, have quite a few. Mopar of course!
Lotsa hot wheels in the small variety. Some of these are different breeds.

anyone have any for sale? looking for the star car ones.

I've always liked them. I have about 20 model cars that I bult/customized when I was a kid. But the diecast, I just didn't want to open another can of worms. But I always check them out when at flea markets and toy shows. I really like the muscle cars. I like the 50s-60's promo cars too. But then again, yet another can of worms!

I collect 1970 Chevelle cars. That was my favorite car of all time, wish I still had mine. Now that they are way expensive I collect the smaller versions.

muscle cars were a very big part of the late 60's and early 70's. i'm surprized plaid stations haven't done anything with them yet.
