Went by Target tonight and found a few double packs with the grey '65. Next time I'll know what you guys are talking about.

Also found the GL Pinks Boss 429.

Custom Matchbox GT500 Convertible!

I took a Matchbox GT500 convertible and I got the idea to make a hardtop coupe version of MBX's casting. I really like the proportions of it better than the Hotwheels.

I used the plastic roof from the Greenlight 07 Mustang GT from the 5 pk. I cut and glued it on. It's amazing how easy it was.

I hope MBX is listening...do a hardtop!

Or the look they give you when you checkout with a handful.

This high school aged girl checking me out at K-mart had one of those smirks where it looked like she was going to bust up laughing. I wanted to say "yeah go ahead and laugh, you work at K-mart."

Found a Greenlight Mustang 2 pack with a Green Machine in it at Kmart today after work

The green machine is 1/100 produced.
The regular two packs are 4000 made.

After regrettably trading away my first and only Mustang Greenmachine... I vowed that if I ever found one again, I'd hold on to it forever.
