Mustang Mach 1 in 1/18, Coming Soon from American Muscle!

For the 1969 model year, Ford saw a need to offer a performance-oriented variant of its incredibly popular Mustang. The result was the Mach 1, the crown jewel of all Ford Mustangs, coming this year from American Muscle with factory-authentic Aztec Aqua paint!

#1181 - 1/18 Scale
October - November Arrival
1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1

A matte black hood, spoiler, and window louvers tie front and rear together, with a rocker stripe aiding vertical symmetry. 
 A gorgeous white-on-black interior with simulated teak wood accents make this Mustang just as much of a visual feast from the inside.

Don't let the dreamy looks fool you, though, this is no sleeper! A massive 428 cu in, 7.0L Cobra Jet V8 mated to a 4-barrel carb from Holley put out a bone-shaking 440 lb-ft of torque at 3400 RPM. Ford's brand new Mach 1 was no slouch.


This pony car rules them all, and it's coming next month in 1/18 scale! Pre-order today at 3000toys.com!

NEW Pontiac Grand Prix Coming from American Muscle!

American Muscle is replicating the highly sought after 1969 Pontiac Grand Prix SJ in espresso brown!
#1175 - 1/18 Scale
June - July Arrival
1969 Pontiac Grand Prix in Espresso Brown
The venerable Pontiac Grand Prix received a complete redesign in 1969 under the direction of John DeLorean, who famously later founded DeLorean Motor Company.

 The reworked model included an aggressive grille and sharp linework throughout, alongside several engine options that topped out with the mighty 390 horsepower 428 HO powerplant. These upgrades paid off, with GM selling almost four times as many units as the '68 version.

The particular example this model replicates is owned by Scott Mancini, who bought the vehicle in 2016. It attained a Legend-level rating from the Vintage Certification Program at the 2017 Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals, being judged an astounding 92.6% factory-original condition.

This 1/18 scale model is lovingly rendered in heavy diecast metal and shows incredible attention to detail. In addition to the precise bodywork, opening doors and hood, and authentic interior, the vehicle features:
                                         • true-to-scale detailing
                                         • factory-matched paint scheme
                                         • accurate badging
                                         • steerable front wheels
                                         • detailed motor and undercarriage
                                         • tilting seats

Throwback TV Police Cars from Greenlight!

In the Seventies, patrol cars from Ford, Dodge, Chevrolet, and others were readily found on the streets, as well as on many popular shows on television. Greenlight has recreated some of these familiar cars with true-to-scale detail, real rubber tires, and authentic TV show decoration. The functioning doors on these officially licensed replicas open to reveal the detailed interior.

Speed is an important aspect in a car, even more so if there's any chance of a high-speed car chase. One of the most recognizable cop cars from 70's tv shows like The Dukes of Hazzard and The A-Team is the Plymouth Fury, available now at 3000toys.com. In addition, the Hazzard County Sheriff Fury pairs perfectly with The General Lee (#964) by American Muscle, in stock only while supplies last.

See Greenlight's Smokey and the Bandit (#19044) 1975 Plymouth Fury, also available now.

 Although these patrol cars are harder to find than they once were, there are many 1/18 scale options available to add to collections. Similar to the Plymouth Fury, the Dodge Monaco was another popular choice for police squads. One example of the 1977 Monaco was featured in The Terminator.

100th Anniversary Special Release Coming Soon from American Muscle

 Celebrating 100 Years of Chevrolet Trucks, American Muscle has released a special Anniversary edition of the 1970 Chevrolet El Camino in a beautiful Black Cherry color.

The Chevrolet El Camino, a coupé pickup, was released in 1959 as a direct competitor to Ford's Ranchero. The highly stylized El Camino quickly surpassed its rival in sales during its first year of production, while also taking first place in the hearts of many.

NEW from American Muscle is this 1/18 Scale 1968 Pontiac GTO Hardtop!

Auto World is proud to replicate this 1/18 scale factory Verdoro Green 1968 Pontiac GTO as used by GM in their famous Woodward Avenue print ad.
#1128 - 1/18
1968 Pontiac GTO Hardtop "Class of 68" in Verdero Green

• Opening Doors & Hood
• Detailed Engine
• Steerable Front Wheels
• Accurate Interior and Chassis
• Heavyweight Die-Cast Metal

Pontiac marketing was some of the most clever in the business. By incorporating the well-known Detroit area street scene into this famous ad, they created a hidden message of two young men waiting for a drag race.


Prior to the official launch of their new 1968, Pontiac snuck a Verdoro Green GTO into the famous Royal Pontiac (a dealership that was well known by performance enthusiasts) to get it Bobcat performance tuned; Bobcat tuning was Royal’s standard package of performance upgrades. These upgrades were made ahead of a Key Magazine road test. It ran a consistent 12-second quarter mile.


After the test, Pontiac took the green GTO to the Chicago Auto Show. Decked in Redline tires and Ralleye II wheels, this appealed to Pontiac fans while nodding to the younger, performance-minded customer. 

Capture a replica of this famous GTO for your collection at 3000toys.com TODAY!
