Three TERRIFIC models! I'm partial to the Chip Foose 'Stang!
Great finds John Napoli. I've always checked the toy departments at any Walmart I've ever visited and I've never found any 1:24/1:25 models at any of them. The only ones they've every had are the little itsy-bitsy M2s that are smaller than Hot Wheels cars. Why anyone would want something that small would be a mystery to me. Thanks for sharing your great pics!

You've done well John. Any plans to 'play around' with them? This is just me of course, but I'd have a go at blackwashing the Mustang grille. Reckon I'd probably leave the others as they are. The Cuda is so distinctive, will really stand out on the shelf.
@georgeschire George: I travel a lot in the southeast and always seem to find my way into a Walmart. I start at the Hot Wheels isle as that is where they are and I see what I can find. This week I found 3 more, which are still in the boxes and I will take pictures when I get them out. I know that items like these are not always at all the Walmarts.
@geoff-jowett Geoff, I did think about that, as they are sitting on my desk currently. I was looking more to do the dashboards. They are kind of plain. As you know I build a lot of plastic kits, and I currently have 25 kits in my office and probably another 100 in my storage building waiting to be built. So taking apart a nice diecast is not on my priority list in model building. But if I do I will post a photo or two.
Great scores John. I especially like the GMC pick 'em up truck. Our Wally World usually has some variety of M2's, Welly's, and JADA 1/24 models. I've gotten a few from our local Walmarts. 😊
