No clue,... but it's next to the car.

What's with the pinching little kids model cars rocketaroo? :lol:

Funny, I never really grew out of them. In nearly 5 months of detecting, I hadnt found a car, only bits of them. Last 2 weeks I have found 3.

 

[SCROUNGER]

Funny that hey? When i was growing up we all had them, don't see kids with them these days, not that i've noticed anyway. You'd think there'd be plenty around in the old parks, i know as kids we lost lots of them, or dumped them when the wheels etc got broken.

 

[silver]

All in the matchbox car dump now.

 

[SCROUNGER]

Matchbox graveyard, :lol: wonder if they still make them? Probably all plastic now if they do.

My #1 grandson is mad for matchbox cars. He has hundreds.

Rocket it looks like a hinge/vent thingy to me.

Memories, fantastic. I like the old double decker bus there Silver. Hey Ramjet, is it politically correct to nominate one of the grandchildren as #1? Or is that a ranking you're giving according to birth? I've got a #1 granddaughter, well she keeps telling me she is anyway :lol:

When I was a kid I had some great sand to play in(dad was doing a patio) and of course he told me to find my cars and shift them,.... too late,.. steel in(it was already boxed) cement truck arrived and cars no more,... stuck forever more in the dry sand under that cement under that roof,.. never been flooded,... ever,... Ahhhh,... some one someday, on a big machine, picking up lumps of concrete to put in the dump truck will see the top of some old matchbox car in immaculate condition, and proceed to pull out car after car after car all from the sixties and very early seventies,... I hope it happens, and I hope it makes someones day(the lucky lucky B).

I credit the ownership of my first Porsche to the fine hobby of coin shooting.

I'd have a tribe of snot sniffin babbling bawling kids dragging at my legs all the way to the post office RKT(ha).

Thought so

Batman car is worth $$$ - more than a lot of your silver finds - put it on eBay and see what I mean ... Found one at a garage sale and got more than $100 ...

 

[TheSilentBugler]

Was thinking the same thing Paul.

Rocket too, the cheeky treasure hunter he is
