I've been eBaying Topper Johnny Lightnings my sister found in my moms attic (still on cards!). I did contact a Hot Wheels/Johnny Lightning collector about one I had in a kind of weird magenta color and he asked about what we all have, and he said my mom would be a very rich woman if these would all have been similar era Hot Wheels. The Lightnings are rarer but the Hot Wheels still bring the big money, especially if they are still on cards. For the Johnny Lightnings they have to be the original Topper brand, the Hot Wheels have to be the old redline tires.

My wife came home with $150 worth of old furniture. Some I like, some I'd certainly rather were fifty matchbox cars.
Do they have a lot of antiques at that flea markets? (Since you aren't that far away)

If you ever find yourself with too many toy cars you can do this to them.

That is one hell of a blender! My wife keeps frying cheap blenders, she'd probably have a tough time killing one of those. I don't know that I could get myself to drop $400 on one, but it was impressive!
