There seem to be even fewer HO vehicles for the 1970's and thats the period when open auto racks were very common still. Just sayin...
At not much less then $8.00 and up to $24.00 per vehicle, 10 to 12 vehicals per car on an open bi level auto rack that can come to $80.00-$240.00 per auto rack, thats the cost just for eye candy. I have Dodge A100, Dodge charger, Olds. 442, VW beetles & vans, 1973 Ford F100, Plymouth Barracuda, Chevelles, El camino, Mustang fast backs, Mavericks and now starting to stock up on those Jeep Wagoneers. Time frames can be dated to late '60s PRR to early '70s PC.
The above vehicles are from Atlas, Brekina, Mini Metals, Model Power, Monogram Models, shop wisely to save cost.
