Taking a break from the spacemen posts, here's a cool soft vinyl plastic hot rod made by Auburn in the early '50s. These Hot Rods had the numbers '2', '3', '5', '6', '8', or '9' molded onto the doors and trunk. In addition: they came with and without silver detailing; the wheels were yellow, black, or white; and the bodies were molded in a rainbow of colors. Collecting all of the different color/number variations would keep you busy for a long time! I have several of these hot rods but they all have the number '9' on them and as they weren't really a top collecting priority, it isn't likely I'll get anymore. This blue car is apparently an early version as it has no silver detailing and soft vinyl tires. Enjoy! Opa Fritz
