Diecast: Auto World 1971 Ford Torino GT

1:18 scale Torino GT oozes 1970s muscle, fastback styling ... Clint Eastwood loves his Gran Torino, both the car and the movie he made that revolved around one. But Torinos were mainstream, a lot of folks owned them in the late 1960s through the mid-1970s. That’s because they were the midsize or intermediate Fords, good... Continue Reading →

Die-cast: Auto World – 1967 Yenko Chevy Camaro SS 427

'67 Yenko Camaro a sexy addition to any 1:18 collection ... To me the first couple generations of Chevy’s Camaro were the most stylish.

Die-cast: Auto World 1968 Nickey Chevy Chevelle

A Nickey-pimped Chevelle was, and is, a thing of beauty ...  Many 1960s car lovers believe the second generation Chevelle and its related GM cousins were the epitome of automotive styling and beauty.

Die-cast: Auto World 1977 Dodge Warlock

Blingy Warlock pickup stirred our love of custom trucks ... I have to admit that when I heard Auto World was releasing the 1977 Dodge Warlock I was confused. I’d never heard of it, and I pride myself in being a pretty heady car guy. Of course, it’s a truck. Still, in 1977 I was... Continue Reading →

Die-cast: Auto World’s 1969 Dodge Charger R/T

1969 Charger R/T  cool in Light Blue Poly ... As a teenager in 1969 I was enthralled with muscle cars for their speed, their rumbling V8s, and their looks. My family was Mopar crazy and so that made me a prime candidate to love Dodge’s Charger. But really, I was more into the Challenger and... Continue Reading →

Die-cast: Auto World’s 1971 Plymouth GTX

A 1971 Plymouth GTX you can afford ... My neighborhood was packed with Road Runners back in the early 1970s, in no small part because we had one of the top-selling Chrysler-Plymouth dealerships in Indiana a few blocks from my house. The wild fruity colors of the late 1960s and early ‘70s lit up the... Continue Reading →

Die-cast Auto World’s 1971 Chevy Monte Carlo SS 454

Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS454 a short-lived muscle car I lived through the 1970s, in fact my first car was an early ‘70s Plymouth, but I can tell you that good-looking and quality cars of that era were few and far between. But for Chevy, the 1971 Monte Carlo was a big seller, a full-size luxury... Continue Reading →

Die-cast: Auto World 1967 Chevelle SS Convertible

Auto World flexes its muscle with drop-top Chevelle SS Chevrolet was in the sales driver’s seat in the 1960s as it churned out hit after hit as we were all busy seeing the U.S.A. in our Chevrolet. But even then its cars were growing in size and stature so quickly that by 1964 Chevy realized... Continue Reading →

Die-cast: Auto World 1970 Chevy Camaro Z28

Auto World creates flashy second-gen Camaro Z28 My Uncle Wink had one of the original Camaros and that’s the car I learned on to drive a stick shift.

Die-cast: AutoWorld Vette, Tang started on Road&Track covers

Muscle cars are here to ‘pump you (your collection) up’ Ahhh, muscle cars, those high-horse brutes of the 1960s and early ’70s that lived the high life until the evil Oil Embargo forced us all to rethink power and gas guzzling, at least for a few years. These babies were stylish and fun, and AutoWorld... Continue Reading →
