Since diecast restocking is way down, I've switched to more HO train collecting. visiting a big indoor Flea/Antique mart yesterday, I found my favorite toy dealer there, he had loads of Marklin stuff. This piece is probably hard to find, so I got it for $15. Car is plastic, but nicely detailed. I also picked up a Rambler Tinplate car made in Japan for $15, the Dinky tinplate Rambler wagons are findable, but the Japanese ones are really hard to find, this one is beat, but oh well. Jerry |

Yeah, those pressed steel "tin" cars are really hard to find anymore in anything like decent shape, and sellers usually want a king's ransom or a choice piece of anatomy even for wrecks. Nice finds. |

Nice find, that Mėrklinf flat car. Not too sure but I believe the car is a Ford 17M. i think you paid a fair price, usually those older wagons are worth quite some money lately. |
