1936 FIAT 500C Hot Wheels 1:64









From Fandom:
 This is a highly customized version of the original Fiat 500 (not in fact the later 500C) produced in Italy from 1936 to 1955. It featured a 569 cc four-cylinder engine with the radiator mounted behind, thus enabling the distinctive sloping nose. The car was popularly know as "Topolino", literally "little mouse" but more specifically the Italian name for Disney's Mickey Mouse. The Hot Wheels version has been converted to a dragster complete with high-mounted wing and exposed engine. Like many racing cars, this Fiat has been converted to not right-hand drive, but central drive with the steering wheel in the centre of the car.

1936 Ford Deluxe Cabriolet Welly 1:24











Chevrolet regained the sales lead at the end of 1936, but the Ford still sold well. A new club cabriolet model was introduced with a fully framed windshield and weatherproof top, and the convertible sedan gained the popular integrated trunkback design.

The look was updated with an inverted pentagonal grille with all-vertical bars beneath a prominent hood and three horizontal chrome side strips (on DeLuxe models). The V8 DeLuxe was called Model 68. A concealed horn, long a prominent part of the Ford's design, also brought the car into modern times. The new trucks continued with the old grille. Other major changes for 1936 were the use of pressed steel "artillery" solid wheels instead of wire wheels.
