Hot wheels

Used to have some of the original hot wheels when I was a kid, don't know if I still have 'em. I do have some mint boxed corgi and Dinky cars from the '60's, I really must get around to selling those, bet none of you have got a "Green hornet"!

I do with the satellite dish that flys up, and Kato at the wheel, plus other gadgets....safe and sound

All my Matchbox, Dinky, Hot Wheels cars and stuff went to a church jumble sale as soon as I left home at 19.

At least I saved my plastic model kits because I had taken them with me.

Anyone have a Dinky (I think? That size anyway) "sit up and beg" Ford Popular Gasser with tube front axle and big engine of some sort? Jag straight six?
I think it was yellow with a tinted green plastic see-through roof insert?

I have never seen one like it since that I know of. But I think I have asked this before?

That was an Austin ruby Dave, "Wild Honey" jag engined and based on a real UK car, Matchbox I think. I had one, and might still have it along with the dragsters that were in that range. Must get up in me mum and dads loft and see whats still there....

That must have been it. Funny how you remember things different 35 years later.
