Fire Chief Vintage Chevrolet Friction tin toy Car by Bandai made in Japan
Fire Chief Vintage Chevrolet Friction tin toy Car by Bandai. This toy was taken out of the box for the first time to be photographed for this listing. The antenna that you attach to the back of its trunk lid.
And original thin tissue paper for protecting the windows from scratches. The car is 11 long.
The car's friction motor works and makes a siren sound from the spinning motor caused by pushing it. This is not a battery operated toy. There are no electric lights. The car is in nice shape yet there are some small tiny spots of rust by the chrome around the top red plastic lens and the chrome trim at the bottom of the back window. There are tiny rust spots on the back deck by the back window, raising the red paint in that area just a bit.
The front and back window are in nice shape. In general the lithos are in good shape yet some of the silver trim around the impala emblems on the back left and right quarter fenders have some wear, most likely from rubbing against the in sides of the box. It appears the box got wet at some point, which warped the box, separating a corner of the box lid, rusting away the staples that held that corner together. Please look at the photos, they are part of the description.
