    Memorable 70's and 80's toys

    With the enjoyment of the Music thread I have started this topic

    One thing for us vanners, having time inside with little fella I have pulled out some of my old cars for him,

    I am hunting for a original cab for this car carrier

    If you have any old matchbox cars and think you may the correct cab please let me know other wise will buy these set in for him

    Thanks

    I cant beleave the big bucks they pull, my birth father, buried all mine in the back yard when he was filling it in, I went out after school most days and dug out as much as i could, my whole toy box got buried, rescued as many as i could the arsehole said i was too old for toys so buried the lot - r sole

    Hence why I dug them out and took them to mums place, thank god i saved wht i did love sharing them with the kids now

    My father was the same. He passed a bit of his collection onto me which are sitting up on my shelves beside me in my room. I wouldn't part with them in a thousand years though - too much sentimental value.

    Gave a huge bag load of matchbox cars & trucks (my interest in cars started young) to my cousin when I turned 13. Thought I wouldn't want them any more (priorities changed):errf:. All in mint condition. He then lost, or trashed them all??
    I'd kill to have them now!!


    Best 70' toy for me (other than my cars etc) was my 3 speed dragster bike. GT striped seat, white walled tyres and sissy bar. It was cool.
