Renwal No. 102 Coupe - Red HP (1950-56)

I could've sworn I had posted all my vintage plastic vehicles from the '50s years ago, but as I peruse the dark corners of my computer, more and more unposted photos are showing up. Case in point: this nice Renwal No. 102 Coupe in red HP made back in the day when I was a young'un from 1950 to 1956. It measures 4 1/4" (10.79cm) L x 1 1/2" (3.81cm) W x 1 5/8" (4.12cm)  H. Well heck. Okay, let's post it now. Enjoy! Opa Fritz

Renwal #60 Coupe 1948-49 Bronze HP

We've got a bunch of vintage vehicles to post this year and they'll be comin' just as soon as I can  take and edit photos! Today's vehicle isn't a Nifty '50s toy but a Fab '40's selection, Renwal's #60 Coupe from 1948-49. Classic lines, a beautiful dark bronze color, and a hefty dose of nostalgia makes this a winner for any toy car collector. It measures 4 1/4" (10.8cm) L x 1 3/8" (2.9cm) W x 1/3/8" (2.9cm) H. Enjoy!

Apparently this was modeled after the Buick 1939 Y-Job, "The World's First Concept Car" which was famed auto stylist Harley Earl's personal ride:






















here it is posed with a Bachmann Plasticville Service Station, and as a bonus I've included a scan of the cardboard insert.
