Bought this box of several zip lock bags of tin toy trucks & tractor parts (maybe other stuff too, maybe even stuff to steel toys as well). There is more than it looks like in the picture & I have not gone thru any of it yet but there are some truck bodies, lots of wheels & axels, some celluloid parts & pieces. 1 1980 hotwheel, an Aurora cigar box Indy or F1 car, a piece of a die cast dumptruck & a tin barn or at least part of a tin barn. They had $1 on the box & I gladly paid it! I bet there are some people in need of some of these parts, seems like most of the parts here are the parts that would break the easiest & someone was collecting them up for some reason. I'm not a tin toy person but I sure know there is way more than $1 worth of stuff there!

Can't see exactly what you have but the tin toy buyers surely will. I have been amazed at some prices on those types of items. If it's a vintage tin, it will bring money!

Its all old stuff, 1950's Id say.
 

Any wind ups? I had some that surprised me on final auction sales. They all draw some interest. Let us know if you got some diamonds in the group.
