    New and correct imformation on the history of the mini tin lizy car. The original manufacturer of this mini car was the CRUE-CUT INC. They made several model mini"s. The fire fighter model t, the tin lizy, and the mini racer along with several others. To see ORIGINAL SALES PAPERS, with photos and their special 1976 model t go to GOOGLE !!! Then google: mini model t sales from this page half -way down the title or topic ;Who manufactured the original shriner mini model t . YOU will then see a web sight to visit that has photos and history of this one time company and the mini"s they produced , and for what they were used for. Great pictures and specs of these cars. I copied this page for my personal use to display with my mini FIRE FIGHTER hose and ladder truck. Good exploring,Tom Grieger ,of STEWARTSTOWN, PA.

    The Six Flags amusement park here in St. Louis has cars like these. I remember as a kid thinking it would be cool to have one.

    ROTROD 37 , Just finished one of my projects, and still have not yet learned to enter my photos yet . I will master this one way, or the other. Am patiently awaiting your mini - cars out come . My biggest regret when finishing a project, as such, is never enough before ,during, and after photos. GOOD LUCK, Tom

    I found a small T today. All I had was a cellphone camera so,,,. It is being used as a sign for a used car lot/flea market place in Kinston, NC. Not for sale just yet I was told. Its been on outdoor display for 12 years I was told. The display was 6 feet off the ground so there are only underside shots. Sorry but Im a short f'r.

    From what's been posted here you would think you could find one just about anywhere. I've been on the lookout for one for years to restore for my grandkids and have not come across even one. Now the grand kids are in college and I'm seriously doubting they would be very excited if they found one under the Christmas tree.
