I loved playing with matchbox cars in my much younger days and I had quite a collection. This is the only model left, it seems, I discovered it in a drawer the other day.
Taken for Crazy Tuesday and the theme: Small Toys.
Have a fun day, everyone!
With Colas still experiencing a shortage of traction in the north of the country Freightliner's Class 70 70007 again deputised for one of the French company's own examples on Friday
The nice man driving this car saw me get my camera out in his rear view mirror. He drove slowly in front of us so I could get a few photos of his lovely car.

Both looking very festive ,These classic cars were seen at a Christmas festival street event in Sutton ,
I haven't slept at all in days
It's been so long since we've talked
And I have been here many times
I just don't know what I'm doing wrong
What can I do to make you love me
What can I do to make you care
What can I say to make you feel this
What can I do to get you there

Special:
- It was the new generation smooth Detroit-inspired style German cars, designed by Chuck Jordan, showing first signs of GM rationalisation with Vauxhall (sharing same floor pan and suspension with new generation Vauxhall Victor FE).
- The Rekord D Series (easily mistaken to connote a diesel-powered car), so later renamed ā2ā Series (1971-1977) was already in production before production of the Rekord C was ended (1966-1972).
anyone remember that sinister horror schlock movie from the 70's called "The Car"? Loved that movie (really dumb possessed car story, but hey...) and this car dredged up some of thiose little boy memories. Thankful for that.
Earlier in the spring.
