Matchbox Lesney Series No. 66 Coach, modeled after the iconic Greyhound bus, was released in 1967 as part of the company’s early die-cast lineup. Featuring a sleek silver finish with bold blue side stripes and the classic “Greyhound” logo, the model captures the streamlined look of the real-life American intercity coaches.
Its six-wheel configuration and elongated body give it a substantial presence, making it a standout among other vintage Matchbox vehicles of the time. Built with Lesney’s signature attention to detail, the No. 66 Coach includes finely molded windows, roof vents, and front and rear grilles.
The wheels are black plastic with metal axles, allowing smooth rolling, and the baseplate is marked with “Made in England by Lesney” along with the series and model number. Highly regarded by collectors, the 1967 Greyhound Coach remains a cherished piece for its distinctive branding and association with mid-century American travel. It reflects a period when Matchbox was expanding its range to include internationally recognizable vehicles.
In good condition, especially with its original box, this model holds both sentimental and collectible value in the vintage die-cast community. Pictures are of the actual item. Please feel free to ask for any additional information or questions you may have.
