NEED HELP IDENTIFYING AN ANTIQUE/VINTAGE TOY CAR I FOUND?!?!?
I Found this car metal detecting. I was very dirty and had the original black wheels, but they broke into pieces when my fiance tampered with them.
It is all metal (possibly cast aluminum?)
Can't find any info on this type of car.
If anyone can answer the following questions, I would be grateful.
make
model
year
who possibly made it? (I think I see writing, but it's too faded to tell)
what type of medal it looks like
about what year was it made
is it worth anything in this condition
Refer to the following pics
Thank you

Mind you these are just educated guesses as to your car.
Since it was buried and the metal still looks decent I'm going to agree with you that it is most likely aluminum. The axles look to be steel. The car that it is modeled after looks to be some sort of late 30's model possibly a Bugatti. I wouldn't think it was made before World War II and I'm thinking late 50's early 60's . I think it was made by Tootsie toy which made lots of diecast cars like this in the early 60's. The solid bottom is puzzling however because I haven't seen any like that before.
As to the worth of the toy, it would be worth a lot more with the wheels on it. I'm sure replacements are available. Check for toy shows that come through your area. There are usually dealers that restore old toys who can help. The can also assist you with the value.
In the shape it's in now I would think if would be worth less than ten dollars. Just educated guesses, so actual values may vary.
Good luck and hope this helps
Collecting Star Wars Toys, Figures and Playsets For Fun
If you are collecting, or preparing to start collecting Star Wars toys, figures or other kinds of collectible items, you don't necessarily have to be the utra serious type of collector who hopes to make a fortune one day by selling his unique collection on eBay. There's nothing wrong with collecting your favorite Star Wars or Clone Wars characters, vehicles or scenes just for fun. If you're just starting, here's a couple of tips to help you choose the ideal category of Star Wars collectables to make your experience as enjoyable as possible.
What Star Wars toys / figures to choose?
When collecting for fun, not for money, it's generally a good idea to select a category based on your personal preference, but still follow your common sense in terms of price, size and availability of your chosen category of Star Wars collectibles.
- Price: You will probably want to stay away from rare vintage Star Wars figures, exact lightsaber and blaster replicas and other expensive items. Instead, make an estimate on the size of collection you want to build, and then look for more affordable alternatives which don't exceed your budget.
- Size: Unless you have a separate room reserved for the sole purpose of storing your collection, you'll probably avoid collecting large scale items like the wearable types of Star Wars helmets, blaster rifle replicas etc. Fortunately, most of these items also exist in scaled versions, which doesn't necessarily mean that you have to sacrifice high level of detail, quality material and good workmanship.
- Availability: If you want to continue collecting your favorite Star Wars toys for some time to come, you'd better choose items produced in large numbers, which are easy to find and purchase. It's a good idea to stick with manufacturers like Hasbro. LEGO and other brands, which hold a long-term license for producing Star Wars and Clone Wars official merchandise.
My Personal Tips
Here's my top 3 list of items which comply with the above recommendations, and which I personally find interesting and fun to collect.
-
LEGO mini Star Wars figures
What makes them my top choice is that besides meeting all the mentioned requirements, they are extremely popular both among adult collectors and their children. The line of Star Wars minifigures includes all your favorite characters you can think of, some of them in several different versions. The fact that the parts are interchangeable makes them easily customizable, which adds even more value. -
Star Wars Mighty Muggs figures
This is a very popular line of collectible 6-inch vinyl figures released by Hasbro is recognized by typically large character head and chunky body. It includes an entire suite of Star Wars characters inspired by the original movie saga, the Clone Wars animated series and even the related video games. If you are creative, you can even buy a blank white customizable figure and create your own unique designs. -
Star Wars Titanium Series die-cast vehicles
If you prefer spacecraft and vehicles to the figures, you should consider Hasbro's line of very detailed metal die-cast collectibles called Titanium Series. It replaces the original line of die-cast collectibles produced by Kenner since 1979 and brings back all the quality and detail which makes these toys very popular among collectors.

I wish you a lot of fun building your collection. May the Force be with you!
