I had forgotten my collection of cars as a kid and just found these in the case in my closet. I wish I could find out how much it is all worth now.
I had these as a kid in the 60's and early 70's and no longer have anyone to pass them on to since kids all play with electronic games now.
Let me know if there is any interest out there. I am in Charleston, sc.

Just message me at bhamredlines at gmail.com

PS - from what I can see there are Playart, Matchbox and Hot Wheels brand cars. I'd be interested in the whole lot if we can work something out.
Cheers
