I too collect Hotwheels, Matchbox and Johnny Lightning cars. I do not have too many original cars though. But the few vintage cars I have, have come from www.thetoypeddler.com . The sellers on this site have great stuff. There is a small fee to join the website ($5 I think) but it is well worth it for the collector!

When hot wheels came out I pretty much abandoned my Matchbox cars...we used to set up the track and dead end it into a wall at the bottom of the stairway !!! The Eldo lasted the longest !!!

NJSteve be prepared for the hotwheels nuts to start e-mailing you! Last time there was a thread like this I got a ton of e-mails and ended up selling a couple of my old redlines for like $500.00!
