Not exactly related but I finally got my dad’s old cast iron motorcycle patrol toy together with the one I recently bought at an antique shop. His is on the right. I think Hubley made these.

Vintage toys were so cool. They still are. I grew up in the 90s so I missed that toy by a day or two. Back then you were cool if you got the rug with the roads printed on it.

Very cool. Panel stuff is very hard to get, not much is reproduced, especially for the later '50s / early '60s. That body looks very good from what the pictures show.
