    Cool. Made me feel like a kid watching those. Stupid grin on my face the whole time. I think some of those engines need a timing adjustment. :D

    I can remember dismantling the early lithographic Japanese tin toys only to find that they were made of PBR cans.

    Thanks Jive Bomber. I've always liked the tin toys. But the Hot Rods are my favorite. 054.jpg 750.jpg 751.jpg 747.jpg 500.jpg

    I wonder what the stamping dies looked like? Were they crude hand press operated or something more elaborate?
