A large red travel steamer trunk is loaded onto the rear of the vehicle. The vehicle moves forward and backwards due to the rotating front wheels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs the rear wheels turn, the tin-litho drivers head moves in a circular pattern. The large Louis Marx brand is printed on the back of the driver's seat. The car is in very good condition with very limited scratching or oxidation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tin driver does show some oxidation on his face and upper body but all the driver's features and paint colors are easily discernible. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen we tested the winding mechanism, the wheels and driver's head did move properly but at times we had to manually move the rear power wheel to keep the action going. A new main spring would help the wind-up action of this toy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe black paint on this jalopy is almost a century old and has some dulling resulting from age. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis classic toy belongs in every collection. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Smiles From The Past","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48361643180272,"sku":"02-002068","price":275.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0680\/6605\/0288\/files\/IMG_5980.jpg?v=1768512580","url":"https:\/\/smilesfromthepast.com\/products\/early-1930s-louis-marx-wind-up-tin-litho-joy-rider-jalopy","provider":"Smiles From The Past","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
