My small contribution to this thread: a tin Jeep made in Japan by Nomura. I believe this to be a fifties example but I'm not quite shure. It is battery operated and in full working order (it makes quite a racket). It was fairly complete and in good shape when I got it. Only missing the small antenna on the radio box and some other small additions to the radio box.

Hi Ronnie.

 

Great collection you have, a lot of us Jeepers own various models of Jeeps.  Last year a local friend ran out of full size Jeeps for restoration so he decided to repair and restore his children's pedal cars they used about forty years ago.  I gave him an old incomplete example the one painted orange. He fabricated the missing parts and restored the three of them.

I have one of those Triangs waiting for restoration too 😊

Hi earlymb,

 

will you be leaving the original pressed grille or fitting a slat grille when you rebuild it . . . . . . .

 

another shot of the three pedal cars under restoration, must be mine on the left ( the screens down & and no canvas )

Now that would be an idea to consider 😜

Hi Folks,

I previously posted these first two....    the original ID jeep cast in one piece, and the Dale model jeep.  Now there's a new jeep in town. It's a Dale jeep, but with the original shipping box.  They didn't have display boxes, so this box was usually thrown away. This particular jeep also has the star on the hood. The other Dale jeep does not. 

You don't see the Dale model jeep with the original box too often.

Hi misfit 45,

 

those are very enviable and in un-battered condition, I would love them in my display case.
