I'm an avid collector of Action Man and do a lot of customs of vehicles and uniforms. In fact I'm putting a book together - more on that later.


Palitoy only produced one Action Man sized racing car - the green one in pictures below. I'm always on the lookout for these large blown plastic Woolworth type toys from 50s and 60s, which more often than not actually resemble a real car. You can see the red one was Mike Hawthorn's Ferrari and the blue one with orange wheels was Stirling Moss' Mercedes. But please guys, any information on the first picture (with yellow wheels). And who may have driven it.  Thanks in advance, Vaughan.

Hi  Sierra1 and welcome

The red raceing car could even be Palitoy  or as it was first called  "cascelloid " as they made toys from 1935 , but anything injection molded or blown molded they could make.

   

I have never seen these before, I just discovered a whole new world.


Your modifications are great, the Ferrari is absolutely stunning.


Thanks for the photos

Wonderful models of racing cars you have, thanks for sharing and welcome to the site.
