  2. Hi all, I see a lots of comments on the blue utility truck but no words on the red one. With a close look as it's not very clear I think the red one is a home made or a rebuilt salvage car going by t...
  3. With a good clean and rehome most of the wild life as you won't be able to take it indoors. The only thing wrong with it is the lawn mower wheels but needs must and you fit what you can get ??
  4. Well as no one has commented in 2 years I thought I will have my say. To start with The small one at the back is an adapted Baghera or Great Gizmo 1938 Jalopy Roadster ( You can only tell by the St...
  5. I have just acquired another one of these Jeep's brand new with Summit Racing in the US'A. I think these are just to justify what Dad spends on his car they do four different ones, a Small Roadster i...

  7. Yes it's nice to get original's But here in the 'UK' I have to settle for the GearBox reproductions. I have 4 so far, 3 Roadsters and a Delivery Truck.
  8. You can still get them if you spend a lot of time trawling eBay. Or you can trawl the over 800 entries here to find several. Made in China for the USA and marketed by Airflow Collectables. They w...
  9. And one more thing for anyone with one of these. I have just googled stamped steel productions pedal car catalogue And there is a lot of information on their products and company. Good hunting ?...
  10. Hi yes I am all for that when they are in a good original condition then just tidy them up for show but if they are sun bleached or rusty then there are lots of ways to make them look better or differ...
  11. Tried Linden Trading but Liden Trading Uk went bust. there is a link to facebook. Worth trying if you use facebook.

  13. I would say more like mid 80's as they have Plastic Tyres ??
  14. Hi Sorry but this is the SSP version BRUM was made by Airflow Collectables and is slightly smaller. Airflow also marketed a Roadster in several colours and a Red Fire Truck and all with different Li...
  15. Hi I have one of these here in the Uk but mine is a Fire Truck. The side rails are higher with ladder racks. Marketed by Stamped Steel Productions in Austraila. As for date try around the 1980's.
  16. Hello again, Tyres ?? Yes it's complete wheels from the States, Or I have seen tyres remade from reinforced rubber hose joined with super glue some where within these posts. Just a thought, Maybe Ba...
  17. Hello and welcome to 'CW' nice to see the word is spreading. You will only have one thing to fear like us all and that is the 'men in white coats. It's nice to see some thing slightly different and ...

  19. Definitely a 'repro' Early production run with a visible seam over top front edge of hood
  20. Yes "CW" is for the appreciation of the item. If you want to talk money and values talk to e-Bay. As for a BRUM Pedal Car, Is it a genuine BRUM or a copy like the one in the pictures as any Yellow ...
  21. Interesting !! But it is what it is !! A Flower Pot ?
  22. Fantastic only just found this, Yes the dates are all wrong with the Logo's. Up to the 50's / 60's it would have read Drink Coca-Cola then it went on to read Enjoy Coca-Cola and by the 70's the Dyna...
  23. Nice to see part of your collection. I still have my Dinky Toys I had before I left school 'All well played with' and the Dinky Toys I started buying when I started work back in the mid-sixty's still...
  24. No, nothing found but it's nice to know that there's another one some where in the world. Would be nice to see some pictures one day. So how many other Great Gizmo/Baghera variations have there been...
  25. Hi and just a quick late addition. Just been doing a quick Google for Pedal Car parts. There's a lot out there it just takes some looking. These Cars are sometimes listed as 1922 Ford Model 'T' R...
  26. graumm calling rattletrap, Yes with a Repro you are not destroying something that's getting rare. At least Golden Wheel, Dexton & Kalee along with Great Gizmo & Baghera are still readily available a...
  27. Hi Yes some of you still have that Cross to bare I gave it up early over 10 Years ago after 30 Years in Heavy Goods. The Steering, I put a hollow sleeve in the King Pin to stop the yokes from closing...

  31. Scroll back to the second entry on this site to see details of a US Mail Truck.
  32. Could be "Great Gizmo" Could be "Baghera" Could be any thing. Very common made in China. This is an early example with spoke wheels. "Uk" prices £50 to £100. Been around a long time and still bein...
  33. Yes clean it Coca-Cola trucks were never dirty. Use a good Auto Polish and haze remover but try it on the underside first and don't trust the yellow paint just in case.
  34. May be search "Coca-Cola pedal cars" any where, any listing on line.
  35. Looks very much like a Murray Dip-Side in what was once possibly Coca-Cola Livery.
  36. Hi there again, The best part of having a one-off is saying that you made it your self. And the more you put in the better you feel with the result. It's an expression of your skill's and emaggerna...
  37. Is it British ?? Is Line's Bros or Tri-Ang ?? Is it a Vauxhall as the Radiator Shell and Bonnet (Hood) with the Flutes are reminiscent of Vauxhall's of the early 1900;s
  38. Hi Down there, That wouldn't be a hint for me to get building again would it. But then it would be very expensive and the shipping costs would be horrendous. I was thinking about building a two seat...

  43. The under frame and pedal rods are very similar to another Italian pedal car maker TT Toys-Toys that started in the mid 70's and is still making cars now. Could there be a link ??
  44. Hi I know it's not much to go on but there is a Company in Italy called "TT Toys Toys Search Wikapieda if you have that over there. They started in the ...
  45. Yes but modified with a documented history is another thing, It makes it unique. A rare one-off.
  46. Oooo don't you just hate a showoff. No nice to see your collection, I have only been doing Pedal Car collecting for the last 3 years but I have been Die-cast collecting all my life. Graham.
  47. Hello fortapache, and happy new year to you and all our readers. You are close with Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Part of the idea came from the car but I think what gave me the trigger idea for the car w...
  48. I thought I would bring you this one to end the year with something good.
  49. Yes it's nice to take some thing that's readily available and reasonably priced and create some thing that pleases a lot of people. I would never do this to a rare car even though I could as then I c...
