Seize the Opportunity to Stand Out at a Mecum Auction with Die Casts | Carscoops

      Numerous die-cast models are currently available for less than $100.

      Mecum is presenting 113 die-cast models, ranging from sports cars to trucks.

      Bidding begins at just $11 for rare 1:18 and 1:24 scale die-cast vehicles.

      Models from brands such as AUTOart and Hot Wheels are featured as well.

      Writing about rare and expensive cars at auction is enjoyable, but these vehicles are often inaccessible for most of us. Fortunately, Mecum Auctions is currently hosting an online sale where everyone can participate, featuring an impressive assortment of 113 captivating die-cast models from various eras. Whether you're a Ferrari enthusiast or simply interested in having a 1:18 scale model of a 1970s muscle car, there's something for everyone here.

      The models primarily fall within the 1:18 and 1:24 scale categories, with many produced by The Franklin Mint, a collectible manufacturer based in Pennsylvania. Among the items available are a Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa, a 1963 Corvette Sting Ray, a 1935 Mercedes 500 K Special Roadster, and a 1931 Bugatti Royale De Ville. If classic American muscle cars appeal to you, options like a 1970 Plymouth Hemicuda or a 1957 Cadillac Eldorado are also available.

      Don't be concerned about these models being out of reach financially; most are currently priced under $100, with starting bids as low as $11. This is a great way to own a tiny version of a classic luxury car without breaking the bank.

      Additionally, there are many other die-cast models from various manufacturers. One standout is a 1:18 Chevrolet Corvette from AUTOart, still in its original packaging. I own an AUTOart model of a Lamborghini Murcielago SV on my desk and can vouch for their quality. At the time of writing, this model had a current high bid of $46.

      For those interested in large vehicles, the auction includes a variety of commercial trucks as well. From fuel tankers and box trucks to a set of 12 fire trucks, there's something for every niche within the die-cast collecting community.
