A little about us
We are a chartered Hot Wheels club based in the city of Jacksonville, located in the northeast corner of Florida.  Our club currently encompasses Clay, Duval, and St. John's counties and is continuing to grow.  In April of 2000, two unnamed Jacksonville clubs merged in order to combine resources to develop a fully functional Hot Wheels collector's club.  The northeast Florida area, better known as the "First Coast," is rich in collectors and scalpers as well.  Unfortunately, the scalpers seemed to be getting the upper hand.

We wanted a place where we could enjoy the hobby of selling and trading cars without fear of being taken.  Hence our motto...

"Serious collectors for serious collectors."

With this train of thought, one of our main goals for the club is for everyone help each other by providing resources for harder to find cars as well as tips and tricks of the trade, so to speak.  Our second goal is to build our collections without breaking the bank at the same time.  Therefore we do not gouge on prices, nor do we intentionally buy cars for later resale (scalping).

 

 

Our Charity

We have a really cool charity called "Cars for Kids."  At every meeting, we have a large bin that we throw cars into (in the package of course).  After we acquire a hundred cars or so, we travel around to local hospitals giving cars to the children's ward.  It is very rewarding for us to see the kids light up when they get new Hot Wheels!  Wouldn't you?  We have donated hundreds of cars to a number of local hospitals including the Wolfson Children's Hospital and the Ronald McDonald House.
