I think it's a VW bug, but not sure. Nothing inside, just a shell body. No mfg marks of any kind.

VW Beetle/Bug for sure. Looks like Lesney/Matchbox to me but I don't have time at the moment to look for a link.

Appears to be a 1960's die cast beetle. In order to tell you more need to see underside.

Good deal. Look a lot like the one in the center and the one at the right.

So far I don't think Tootsie...
Totally different die cast marks.

I've been searching "Lesney" online and see many that are close, but not exact.

Found some dinky toys cars pre 1970 that look very close, but I can't find a picture of the des cast marks...
