Pastor K, you're in trouble now!! LOL. Big thanks though for all those fantastic Muscle Cars!
Love the MMQ Corvette and the 62 Impala Convertible. Fantastic collection.

Who are American?
'62 Impala SS by American. Who they? Scale? Still available? Looks very pretty and crisp.
By the way, I can't rid my mind of the suspicion that the pink lower half of that wondrously tasteless Chevy wagon is a bit of quick colour cloning in Photoshop, rather than the product of a model production line. May the heavens forgive me for my shameful lack of faith.

American was a subline of Motor City (MOC). You probably know the rest of the story from here....

Graeme, that delightful two-tone was the original color of the initial release of that model.
The second issue was a god-awful shade of yellow. I discussed the pink/green with Bernie DuCros recently and she said it was her idea, she thought it was nice.
American along with USA Models, Design Studios, and Motor City Gold was another incarnation of Alan Novak's 1:43 Motor City lines. They had various trim levels but if there was a plan I never figured it out.

A few more to add to the pix mix...
Corgi's Camaro RS/SS & Auto Pilen's '70 Javelin
Western's F-Body '78 Trans Am & '84 Camaro IROC-Z
Since it's that time of year, no discussion of scale models would be complete without mentioning holiday ornaments. This '65 'Vette in Nassau Blue was made by Enesco
(Hallmark's perennial also-ran) exclusively for the 1995 GM Men's Club's fundraising effort.
My guess is that this year the Club is pushing pencils, literally.

I agree Arthur, that '62 Impala is a dream.
But the Pastor's wagon looks like it's on location for the Indie flic, "A Nightmare in Havana!"

Shameless with your wagon, JK...
...good thing you offset it with some great musclecars. That '62 Impala is a stunner!

Nice assortment. Those Western F Bodies are pretty decent models.

Does NASCAR circa 1970 count?
Larger, click once after opening.
Racing Champions' 1970 Plymouth Superbirds in Petty colors were released in 1992 at a very low price. Spain's Auto Pilen Javelin SST is vintage 1970.
