    I'd have a room full if I had kept all mine.
    I have a 1972 Land Rover Series III Truck Cab/Pick-Up and a 1962 Land Rover Series 2a Carawagon Camper.

    Highly interesting, all that work compared to what it would be today. I was more into the Dinky range.

    I still have almost all of the Hot Wheels, Matchbox, Yat Ming, Majorette, and so forth from my childhood.Some are well-worn, other still look nearly brand new. I was one of those weird kids who kept their toys clean and organized. I'm not like that now, but I was then.
