    Heres 3 shots of one i picked up at a antique store, says"Nylint toys" "made in USA" on the bottom.
    Looks like the same company as "xix32"'s, but without the bobbed rears.

  4. I started on these about 10 yrs ago and never finished. Both were real rough and missing parts so I decided to wing it.

    Not a Tin Toy, but Hot Rod for sure.

    This one from Tootsie Toy Co. 1959-ish? 5 1/2 inches long.
