Lets see your Cars and Trucks 3/16th or 1/64th

Back of the local garage in Winfield, Kansas:

The box shows 1:50 but the model is 1 1/2 inches wide which in S gauge is 96".

McDonald offered an REA semi listed a O gauge but is much closer to 1/64.   John

'Sabout time.

I run Marx O-27 3/16 stuff.  That's S scale running on O tracks.  A lot of Plasticville is closer to S than O, too.  As a result I have ended up with more cars than Avis.  Most are 1?64 with some a bit larger or smaller.

I'll start entering pics of what I have, but not will be in a scenery shot because I haven't got much scenery (or tracks....or bases....or much of anything but a vast pile of unbuilt Marx and Little Town, etc. buildings and pieces and a whole herd of cars, trucks, trailers, motor homes, lunch trucks, and such like.) and a lot of it still requires some restoration or modification.

Someday....

One 1/64 truck on my otherwise O gauge layout-a Corgi fire truck. It’s the only one that fits in the Plasticville firehouse.

50's F&F cars from Post cereal boxes are perfectly scaled to 1/64. Nicely detailed, too.

RadoiRoy,

I guess I am not familiar with what you have mentioned in your post. Are these currently available or are these from the distant past?

Any pics?

I saw so many of these on a cross country trip in 1962 I just had to have an example:

They came in post grape nuts flakes (blah!) in the middle fifties through the early sixties. The earlier ones were better, IMO.

I acquired a few of them at a trade show.  I'd forgotten how fragile they are, and the cost is outrageous now, but you are right.  They look great.

Love the Speed Racer Mach 5

I will start off with a new 1/64th acquisition I received yesterday from the Postal Service. The last picture also includes an AHL truck and a M2M car.

There are still a lot o cars I'd like to see, like a '54 Dodge Royal Lancer, a ' 70 1/2 Firebird Formula 400, a decent MGA, a '68 Datsun 1600 Fairlady Roadster, any '49-'60Nash, Packard, Hudson, and Kaiser-Fraser products, M151 "Jeeps", Austin Healy Sprite "frog eye roadsters, Merc Turnpike Cruisers, Chrysler and / or Dodge station wagons,  TR3-3A and a host of others.

I have a couple of new arrivals

Nice vehicles, all!

Here are a few more around the layout.

Very very nice,

Ray

Thanks Ray.
