Thanks for the offer, Doug. In fact I am looking for virtually Monte Carlo die cast 1:60 scale model from any company, such as Hot Wheels, Matchbox, Racing Champions, etc. I'm a novice at Monte die cast cars, so I have no real idea what's been made. Highest on my list of priorities would be 2nd generation Montes, followed by 4th gen cars. I'm not really interested in cars after the 4th generation. MIBP would be best, but without the box or blister pack is also equally acceptable. I really don't collect other scales, such as 1:18 or 1:24, but if a nice 2nd gen appeared, I might consider it. I don't collect plastic models either, but might consider. The hardest part of my situation is my location and the fact most ebay sellers won't ship overseas, or insist on paypal, which I do not use. I have about 1500 die cast models but only about 6-8 Monte Carlos, so I'm sure there are lots out there I don't have.

Great idea Doug! Swap meets will be starting again soon.

Mike, I grab whatever I see as long as it's a deal. I'm a little crazy, I like all gens of Montes.

I'm like Dave. As long as I can afford it I try to buy whatever I find. ;D

I was searching for a 1:18 scale '03 Pace car. I did a google search and did find one. Just couldn't afford the price.

I did find someone selling the Wells 1:24 '04 SS Montes on ebay. So I bought one of the blue painted ones. Then I added silver to the ground affects to make the car look more like our '03.

Actually, I don't have a good idea of what's been made either, I don't think. I don't have the newer first and fourth gen larger scale die cast models ... partly because I don't want 'em until I can get a "complete" set of larger die cast models, including the 2nd and 3rd gens.

This is a sample of what I have, though:
