I´m happy to get the next GINGELL-policecar. Here the No. * 755 * from the Gingell-list. I have never seen before this old black Buick Le Sabre with Police-Stickers. And I´m happy that the car is in unplayed condition. It is my third GINGELL-policecar. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() (No. 755) --- Here are my two other Gingells : ![]() Ford Mustang GT (No. 753) ![]() Pontiac Fierro (No. 756) Edited by EDeKa, Feb 21 2018, 05:49 AM.

It makes me happy to see another collector who admires the Gingell (and other 'pancake' cars) line. There's just something so....quaint....about them. |

I collect toy cars and no pure model cars just for collectors. I especially like this Gingell brand and other simple brands. But it is often harder to find them than some rare Matchbox or Siku cars! You really have to look for them especially at flea markets and stock exchanges, they are (still) cheap, but more often they have a higher price. They are also available on Internet platforms, but here is the problem that sellers often pack them into bundles and I can not find them. BUT it is a lot of fun to search such models and sometimes to find something completely unknown! But I still have a lot of trouble finding out who sold and made the cars. Since I often search for help and get them here in the forum, THANK YOU for that! If I then know a new manufacturer for me, the search is often easier and I often find completely unknown police cars. In short: The toy car hobby is just beautiful! |

Very nice. Looks like it is "heavily inspired" by the Matchbox Buick Le Sabre Stock Car but it has its own little things. I would like to see a better picture of the front grille as it looks quite detailed. |

I will also keep my eyes open , but I have only seen it once and bought it immediately.But I'm looking this time a lot after GINGELL and other similar small brands, because I may see a second for you. You would also take that in civil, right? (if that exists ?) |

Thank you for sharing this Gingell Buick police car with us. Like you I collect toy cars - especially emergency vehicles - and this is the type of one that would happily find a place in my collection if I ever ran across one. It is interesting that those stickers, or ones similar to them, have shown up on other brands of police cars or maybe I have a Gingell or two in my collection and didn't know it.
