Whilst sorting through stuff in the attic, I was reminded of my old Matchbox racing cars and the recent purchase of the green Aston Martin, one of the few that I didn’t receive as a boy in the sixties. I only noticed it by accident, when leafing through an old catalogue. Luckily, I was able to find a fair example quite cheaply on EBay, to add to my fold of classic racers. All are looking battered today, having been well played with and badly stored!

Hey, I recognize that van! Forgot I even used to have it. It's those plastic panels on the top that gave it away.
ReplyDeleteI had the Ferrari, and always loved the wire-spoke wheels. I had another racing car, I think the Lotus ?
ReplyDeleteNow that is a VAN! SFZ
ReplyDeleteI had the Lotus, BRM and the Ferrari! I think I may still have the transporter!
