Folks... took it to the repair shop last night and got it fixed ;) Super glue did the trick lol: ... however it jammed the wheel... wheels dont rotate ne more, i can only steer them left or right

Hi all, wonderful thread!!

Good to see so many grown with and living with Automotive lust :)

Just wanted to ask if anyone have the "Matchbox" series of scale model cars, normally made in England during the 1975-'80 times? (before the toy industry moved to China and the cheaper side of EU)

I have a whole lot of them, all still in sort of 'show'able condition. Have managed to keep them safe even after 5 years of rough play during 1980-1985.

Tell me how do I post the pics in this forum before I gain 50 shots on my post meter? I can show them to you all co-kids.

Off-track: And ever heard of the "Mehano" rail sets? Have a few of them too.

hey gbpscars

I have quite a few Matchbox cars even today in my collection. Used to be my playmates when i was a kid . i still have them with me

Matchbox cars arent really scale models . They arent as accurate as scale models. Theyre great fun to play with though. I still have a full box full:D
