Not really sure what year these Renwals were made but I have been looking for this yellow and the green one for many months. Finally got them both last week.
I took the axles and wheels off to clean it up a little, so it would roll again. Had some serious rust on the axles. Used my rust eraser and some mild sandpaper
and now it rolls like new. Green one is on it's way still, stay tuned!

RM, I've always thought that the Speed King was a classic design. Here are my 5. The multi-color is 10" and was motorized and non-motorized. The fun with them is there are so many colors.

I like yours Phil! Great collection you have there. I have just started collecting these after looking at them for years.
I did notice the larger one on ebay right now for round 65 bucks I think. I mainly want the ones that are around 4 1/4 inches in length.
Do you or anyone know of a great plastic glue for toys?
Thanks,
Perry

Here's the green one that showed up this week. Number 7 on the hood.
Metallic green with burnt orange wheels.

This one also came in the mail today. Great condition, I really like the metallic versions of the SpeedKing cars.

I really like the look of these; moving while standing still!

Great to see what some "spit & polish" can do to restore them to their former glory.

Here's a little background on their origins:
