Up for sale is a beautiful vintage tinplate friction car manufactured by the highly regarded Japanese brand **Fifties** in the mid-1980s. Known for exceptional craftsmanship, these models were cast from wooden molds hand-carved by legendary master craftsman Masao Sugiyama to faithfully recapture the charm and premium feel of rare post-war Japanese tin toys. This vehicle is a loose item (no original box or registration papers included). However, it remains in fantastic cosmetic condition, making it a stellar shelf display piece and a prime addition to any vintage automotive or tinplate toy collection.
