Hi World -
My neighbor inherited this and was about to toss it. Short story short is that as of today, it's safe At The Red Barn. I'm hoping to learn more about it.
It's essentially a display model. The "frame" is just a rectangle that supports the wheels and mounts the body. No steering, nothing under the body skin.

Are these things collectible? I'm tempted to make it an R/C car or cut a hole in the roof and stick it on a go-kart. But if it's better off going to someone who collects or covets stuff like this, I think I'd rather do that.

Any help appreciated. Thanks -
Chris

That is perfect garage art; I would put it on a wall. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

^ Beat me to it. This is going to be valuable to someone, somewhere, just the way it is.

Would look great hanging on the wall in the meantime—after all, you never know what you'll find At The Red Barn… (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
