the yesteryear kid –
This is a fun lil car! As you can see in the above listing fotos it looks NOTHING like the illustration on the box. This is common with tin toys, both in the past and now. This all part of the charm of tin toys. The left rear wheel on mine had loosened in transit and fell off when i unboxed it. But some CAUTIOUS application of force, and it was soon seated solidly on its axle. As you see in the fotos this is very cute sorta ‘chubby’ lookin car. Nice details all around. To make him go, you pull up on the right side stick, put him down, release, and off he goes! He runs differently, depending on the surface. On my living room area rug (no pile) he goes more or less straight. On my tile floors he scoots off a few feet, does a skidding U turn then comes back (pretty cool) try yours on various terrain to see what happens. The wheels are large and should even handle sidewalk pavement. Tho i dont think the spring is powerful enough for any sorta serious incline. Just a super fun lil car!
