Just back from a local model builders meet. Some nice work and ideas there and lots of stuff for sale.
I resisted buying anything, though the prices were good.
Starting in the late fifties, I and my brothers were seriously into model car building. I kept them, but a decade a go I decided that I would never have display places for them, so sold nearly all of them on eBay.
Corgi Juniors Diecast
1/64 (ish)
Cosmetically restored
Husky Models was re-branded Corgi Juniors in 1970. The name Corgi Juniors was dropped in the mid 1970s and the models were just branded as Corgi.
Sunflower seeds, lotion and duct tape - interesting combination! Funky pattern on the interior seats and doors too.
I can't remember the last time I saw a Pacer out in the wild so to speak. This one looked to be in decent driver shape too.

This was in the yard for some years, whether it eventually got weighed in I don't know. Surprised it didn't get banger raced. It's actually listed under Rambler as a make here, not AMC or American Motors. It was registered new here in the UK, I have seen ad's for these and other AMC's from back then. Looks like it might be RHD?
DVLA says it was last taxed (or SORNed?) in 2002, which seems surprisingly recent.
