This auction is for a vintage tin lithographed 1959 Ford Fairlane Skyliner retractable hardtop battery operated remote toy car made in Japan most likely made by CRAGSTAN Toys. The car itself is in very nice condition. It appears that it was not played with that much since it was put away long ago after the remote lost its red steering wheel. It was put back in and stored for the majority of its life. There are a few scratches on the red paint but they probably cou...ld be buffed out. The graphics of the car are nice. The chrome is nice and the wheels are in good condition. There is a slight warp of the clear plastic windshield at the top (see photos). The remote system it is not working. I tried fresh battery's but I could not get the top to work so I could not find out if the top will go up or down. The remote is clean with no corrosion. The remote would need to be worked on to work and add a replacement steering wheel. It comes with part of its original packaging but not the lid. This is being offered 'as is' with no guarantees. Please look over the photos for condition.
The winning bidder will need to wait until I send an invoice with more accurate shipping cost before paying. I try to get the best cost for shipping available.
