Yes, it is Aerodinamica indeed.
Excellent collection (and ferry too)!


On the trip back home I've noticed, that behind these two lines therere are two more lines Matchbox-cars, all older ones from the early 60ies. But unfortunately it was impossible to take pics of them.

The yellow 1800 Pininfarina is very rare variant (usually described as orange) - most were metallic gold. The "white" Capri with black bonnet behind the caravan is odd - should be pink, unless it's faded. All the others are normal mid-late 60s Matchbox around the transition to Superfast in 69 - I probably had 75% of them at one stage or other of childhood. Someone's very carefully pealed the racing stickers off the Mini and VW Beetle. I don't recognise the blue truck in last thumb - a foreign intruder??

To me it looks rather British because I don`t think it`s a MB.

@Mark99: the name of the car is usually written on the bottom. :wink:

I have the BMC 1800 in gold, with white paint splattered all over it (real paint, no design) and the green Dodge Charger three times - two times in green, one with and one without door and once in metallic magenta.

Four fire trucks of several ages (the first one reminds me a Seagrave). What about the others?

2) Jonckheere unknown


I have one of these since I was a kid, and its origin has puzzled me for a long time, but I don't think it's a Jonckheere. On closer inspection, it appears the Majorette modelmakers have been inspired by the Irizar coaches from Spain, especially the Korosti and Urko models. It's basically an Urko with the front end of a Korosti... but all squeezed into a midi coach format.

Two police cars: the first one is a Fiat Tipo, the second one I think it's something Russian (VAZ?)
