Picked this up at the local thrift store for $3.16. Love those big eyes & bug head? The wheels on the monster truck are nice soft rubber & are going on my Steampunk Toon build that will be posted in the scratch built section soooon. nice finds..what you planning on doing with it I will use parts as the need arises. The bike, probably a Toon bike.

You're very welcome my friend but all I did was keep a secret for a few months . Ward did all of the hard work to make this happen and he deserves all of the thanks ! Thanks, guys! Thanks much! If my fellow Car-Toons forums members haven't already considered it, just know that it's been a lot of fun being able to contribute to the prize pile for our contests! And if a person thinks about it, there's a lot of other ideas that other folks here might be able to contribute, for future Car-Toons contests. Here's some food for thought: Think about custom-made decal sheets, for instance -- some of us can draw things up well, from scratch; or can maybe scan in an existing decal sheet, and "Photo-shop it" to toon it up a bit; or others likely have really nice printing capabilities; and so on. Sounds like a fun way to maybe do a collaborative project? Some folks here might be good at sculpting, say, monster heads from scratch ... or maybe re-sculpting an existing figure, to convert it to something else. Make one, and find a board member here (or even on some other message forums?) who can cast up some resin copies ... and there's another cool prize package addition, waiting to happen. The main idea being: get a few guys here together, brainstorming up some collaborative projects, and who knows what coolness might result?! Just a thought! Something to kick around, in the back of our minds, as we go about our daily routines!

There were banjo keys still in the box, and a pitch pipe, a 1958 baseball trophy, the tank and the 50's plastic car. It was a fun find. Thanks. GB barten
