Mine was the 50cc Benelli like this one…
I was 12 and paid $150 cash. I began working at 8. It took me 4 years to save the cash for the mini bike. |

I have lots of mine, but all are packed up from moving. Got pics of a few. A total of maybe fifty h/o scale slot cars and several tracks. The first track is a 1970 Aurora four lone. The Darlington 500 I bought in 1975. Riverside I picked up at a yard sale. I also have a Hot Wheels Sizzlers (around 2000), a Hot Wheels AI and a Carrerra Go! but they aren't that old. The Tyco train set is from Christmas 1975. |

My little pistols. The white handled recolver was my Dad's. The silver one in the holster my Mom got me when I started first grade (1967). It fit onto a belt, and the loop would hold a pencil. I got stabbed a few times in the leg, so quit the pencil carry. |

First pic is model cars I built in the 70's and 80's. Second is cereal and plastic cars from the sixties. Last are a couple I have had since 1968. |
