Wow! Great collections guys. My collection is very modest. I used to have a room full of vintage Matchbox toys but sold it all to buy the 58 Plymouth.  When I was a kid my parents would give me 10 bucks for my birthday (starting at age 5). My dad would take me to a big K-Mart store that had a display case full of "Corgi" toys. I loved their transport trucks as they as lots of moving parts and real rubber tires. I had about 6 of them (one from each birthday until age 11) but they all got destroyed. I found an Ebay seller in England that lists them from time to time. I've purchased two of the same trucks I had from him and keep an eye out for the rest:

These are on display in my sons room. A few of the models I built as a kid have survived too(the street rod needs the front wheel glued on!):

Has anyone ever seen a Dealership promo car of any year Beaumont, or for that matter, any Hot Wheels, Johnny Lightning, etc. of a Beaumont ?

Used to work for a friend that had a Diecast Hobby store, Never saw any Beaumonts or Acadians. I can't recall if any of the Resin makers have ever done any either, in any scale.

I have never seen one either I think because of it being a canadian car they didnt produce it Also have never seen a stock meteor There are a couple I would love to find but not produced I beleive it was on the old site that there was a fellow that had taken a 69 chevelle model and made his own parts to replicate a 69 beaumont

There is a company that offers Beaumont conversions for 1/25 scale Chevelles. I'll try to find the website.

Todd i see you liked the Mopar models, i see a couple Monogram and those great JoHan models. I still have the 64 and the Desoto to be built when i get back into doing them. I have a modest collection of Diecasts myself. I stopped buying them to save for grown up stuff...house, wedding...Trans Am. I grew up with Ertl and Buddy L stuff in the early 80's. None of them survived...we used to play smash up...4 of us in corners of a room ramming them at the centre of the room. I had a brown Chev pick up that just wouldn't die. What i have now includes 3 Formula One Corgi's in boxes. Two are cigarette sponsored...John Player Special and Embassy. I also have an Exoto Lotus 49, most i spent on a Diecast but great detail. I also have some Ertl musclecars like the 69 Road Runner that i got for Christmas in 1994 that started the die cast collection. I'm looking for Revell and MPC 82 Trans Am/Firebird 1/25 models with T tops.

I found an 83 Monogram Trans Am model at a toy show locally, i think i paid $5. I already have the Knight Rider car, planning on building it with stock interior and front end. It has the T tops. I paid about 30 plus shipping for a Little Red Wagon, original IMC kit unbuilt, all parts on the plastic trees a few years ago.
