    Waiting for the guys in here to post what they got at the shows. Here are a few ancient Matchbox sports cars I got in the 60s.
    First one is a '26 Bugatti Dad got me when I got my tonsils yanked in '67

    next is a Lamborghini Miura

    Ferrari F1

    Ford GT

    Ferrari Berlinetta

    and my favorite-the Iso Grifo which to me was like an Italian Camaro:)

    That's great if these old relics can stir up some good memories I'm all-in:) Here's the Fire Chief's partner

    Me too! I always loved the spoked wheels on these and that one is a nice color-I loved just looking at it when I was a kid. This was how they made them

    that's a cool video. I'm sure they are made different today but I'm still amazed I can buy a cool looking car on a nice colored card for less than a buck

    Early matchboxes by lesney both have a trailer hitch on the back. Have the original box for the white one but not the red.

    Those are excellent Wiliams:) That blue one for sure is an early Lesney-what's it say on the chassis?

    I need to learn all about the Matchbox-Lesney series number thing...like exactly what does your car's series "No 52" designate. I never got that worked out. But I do know that car you have is in great condition for its age.
