Nov For Sale: This car represents an almost unknown part of British tethered car history. In the late 40s and early 50s, importing American mite cars legally was prohibited but a member of the Chiltern Club came up with this alternative. The late and lamented F W Woolworth & Co were marketing a range of clockwork, toy cars. Remove the base plate and mechanism, replace with a plate base and an ED Bee or similar and there was a fun and cobby little car capable of 40mph. This example is an original, British, Marx model with a VCG ED motor and four new Raylite wheels. Again being sold on behalf of the late owners family at £275, although, given the unusual nature of this car, offers will be considered. Contact Paul or John Goodall email john(at)johngoodall.me.uk, or tel 01283 713715 |
