Amazing collection, stronghold! I hope to one day help you build a private museum, that's how much I appreciate your time and space devoted to these! Well, I wouldn't hold my breath for financial assistance, but a guy can sure dream, can't he?

Between yours and Sixcyl's miniatures, the European toy vehicle market has been well served. Keep it up, and don't let anyone tell you differently! :thumbs:

By the way, I'm really not happy with my idea that #24 was a Dodge, that grille is just plain wrong! But perhaps the export Wayfarer was different into the 1950s? Glad that is off my mind! :wink:

Thanks for looking

Here they come!

51=Cool piece! Thanks for sharing :smile:
9 grille bars means 1950, but convertible could be either Super 56-C or Roadmaster 76-C,
Super 56-C (bumper extensions were optional accessories):
http://www.carsct.com/pics/14982F.jpg
Roadmaster 76-C:
http://www.buicks.net/images/50rmconv.jpg
without portholes or side trim, it's up to you to decide! (4 times as many Super convert's were sold than the Roadmaster ones)

61 =I think is the coolest Buick you've got. :love: The body style is called a Sedanette. Depending on the portholes, it could be anything, but I bet it is a 48 or 49.

52 = 52 Buick Super Riviera 2d ht model 56R (side trim does not continue behind rear wheel opening)

53 = Ford C-Series

55= 39 Chevrolet Master Deluxe Sport Sedan
http://1939chevy.com/images/A3B.jpg
bumper matches, and the 36 Ford has a one-piece windscreen

56=53 Chevrolet Sedan Delivery (The 54 grille is wider and wraps below both headlamps)
http://www.cadvision.com/blanchas/54pontiac/images/frontview.JPG
http://www.cadvision.com/blanchas/54pontiac/images/rearview.jpg
http://www.cadvision.com/blanchas/54pontiac/pix.html

57 "Passion" should be based on a 51 Mercury 2d coupe (I don't know if they were all sold as Monterey)

32=Autocar or some defunct brand?
34=IVECO/SCANIA?

I composed this on MS notepad to save time and some pain :wink: .

Thanks again Dustin and Alex.! Great lot of info :wink: much appreciated.
(Time for me to make lots of notes again.!)
Buick's etc... I'll go with whatever you say, you know much more about these than I ever will (56-C is ok by me.!)
No worry's All info will be used :wink:

Alex:
I had done a google search before & couldn't find anything on those two Jeep names (I'd wondered if they were limited or Special editions?)
From a previous search on E-bay, I did come across this model made by MPC 1/25th scale (which again made me think this could be a real model/edition)
http://img363.imageshack.us/img363/5611/mpcjeepbushwackeris9.th.jpg

The Coyote name is written on the bases of those other Jeeps (by Road champs) again I thought maybe a special edition model name like 'golden eagle', 'wrangler', 'Laredo' etc...
(I wasn't questioning that they weren't CJ-5's :smile: )

Thanks again
Steve

There is always a chance that they are supposed to be CJ-7 and or a licence made version from some other country, e.g. something strange as a Ford-Jeep U50 of Brazilian origin. Chances are not too small that these names were used somewhere at some time, but they are certainly not so commonly known as the 'Tuxedo Park', 'Renegade' or the others you mentioned.

I'll keep my eyes open ... perhaps someday something turns up.

Here is a large collection of Jeep models:
http://kamakura.cool.ne.jp/toshimi3/jeep1.htm

I found your 'Bushwacker'
http://zh1968.hp.infoseek.co.jp/mc285/288CJbushwacker.htm
and 'Coyote'
http://toshimi3.hp.infoseek.co.jp/mc824/824rc_blue.htm
but only with information on the models, not on the possible origin of the names.

Tuxedo Park.? :grin: not heard that one before.!
I had seen that jeep website (lots of detailed info ...but Not info on special editions :ohwell: )
I've recently been checking up on some Corgi Mini's I have (special editions!) These being 'Check Mate' & 'Designer'.
Nothing found in my book of mini's on check mate, but Designer was a ltd edition released in 1988 with fashion icon Mary Quant's colaboration. (other mini specials included ..Picadilly, ritz, mayfair, park lane, advantage, red hot, jet black etc...All with various special trim levels & extras.!) Mind boggling really.!
I try my best to search out clues and details on the www. but often find very sparse/sketchy information, which I like to check with experts (such as your good self) before writing down a load of incorrect info.!
Cheers Alex

I have the hotwheels pickup (with the surfboards) and the yellow Datsun wagon of Zylmex in my collection. My Datsun is a bit more flawed, I guess it's probably more realistic :grin:

The Datsun wagon is a 1977 Violet/Stanza/510 [A10] got it from a flea market in Denmark in 2001.

7 reminds a Toyota (logo too)
10 is a Dodge from what I remember, I do not know the model
13 looks like Unimog indeed
14 looks like a VW LT, it seems that MAN made a chassis for the VW LT cab, cf discussion on http://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_10860-Peterbilt-200-1989.html
I thought we had such MAN-VW vehicle on the site, I could not find it.

Yes, the MAN G90 was known and sold as "MAN-VW". As Antoine has said, a MAN-truck-chassis with a VW-LT cab on it. It was produced in the VW factory Hannover.

I had once known, what a model this Majorette-fire-truck was. Something France of course (the style of the fire-equipment is French, too. I still own this Majorette-model as "Safari-car". I just have checked it, it has no name underneath it, too.

Yes, no.13 is a not very good try of an early Unimog (411, I think).


P.S. The MAN-VW-toy was made by SIKU. At the better times, in the 80ies. There SIKU was made in Germany and not in China. To identify it by the stronger quality, for example due the metal-made bottoms. Nowadays they are plastics - quite shitty, if children using it for playing. My friends, who have small children, are buying used SIKU-toys on flea-markets than new ones in the supermarket. The old ones are cheaper and more solid. An it's good for a healthy childhood, to play with toys of Ford Granada, Opel GT, VW-Porsche, Ford Capri etc. :wink:

A tip for SIKU-fans:
http://www.automodelle-hoeing.de/
An excellent collection - much bigger than his online-shop!

And - @walter :hello: - his Audi-toy-collection is great, too.

If anyone is interested to visit Thomas, he's welcome to say hello to me. I'm living four villages South of him :wink:

:biere: Thanks for your help Guys!
I may not be on the site for a couple of days, as my Mum was rushed into Hospital last night with a possible stroke (I was there with her from 1am till 4.30 am this morning ...got home about 5.30am & have had about 2 hours sleep!) I'm up now checking my mails before heading around to her house, feed her cats & check all is okay before heading up to the hospital again through all of this heavy snow and icy roads we're having here right now!
Hopefully, if all is well ..i'll be back soon.
