OK fellows, here is a bargain for you. I usually "Christmas Up" the layout in Nov Dec just for fun and I was shopping with the wife the other night at Walmart. The auto pictured below is what I found. It appears (as best I can tell) to be a 1929 Ford Model A with a Christmas Tree on the roof. It is lit with an inside light and headlights. Its cost was just $5.95 . Now it is an external model only and made completely of porcelain or china so does not roll, but it fits perfectly on my layout. What a price! Here are some pictures:

Here is the side view, little shinny but the harsh light to photo by gives off some bad reflections. Could use a little dullcote but not too bad.

Front View note the Christmas wreath on the radiator

Here she is with the interior and headlights on...even has a driver!

Here it is integrated into the traffic on my "highway"

Anyway, could not pass up a bargain like this, especially since after January the Christmas stuff is put away till next year.

Best wishes

Don
