The two cars's garnered the following from Angelo . . .
"The cars
were made by Politoys in the sixties.
Politoys
made two series of these cars in 1/77 scale.
The
first series was composed by only seven cars and on the bottom reported
"Sistema Dep" the name of the model and "Made in Italy".
These
were:
N. 1 - Cooper (Norton)
N. 2 - Ferrari (500)
N. 3 - Connaught
N. 5 - B.R.M. P25
N. 6 - Ferrari 156
N. 8 - Vanwall
N. 11- Maserati
N. 2 - Ferrari (500)
N. 3 - Connaught
N. 5 - B.R.M. P25
N. 6 - Ferrari 156
N. 8 - Vanwall
N. 11- Maserati
The
second series was composed of 12 cars and on the bottom only "Made in
Italy" and the name of the model.
These
were;
N. 1 - Porsche
N. 2 - Ferrari (500)
N. 3 - Cooper
N. 4 - Connaught
N. 5 - B.R.M. P25
N. 6 - Lotus
N. 7 - Cooper (Norton)
N. 8 - Ferrari 156
N. 9 - B.R.M. (G.P.)
N. 10 - Maserati
N. 11 - Mercedes
N. 12 - Vanwall VW Grand Prix"
N. 2 - Ferrari (500)
N. 3 - Cooper
N. 4 - Connaught
N. 5 - B.R.M. P25
N. 6 - Lotus
N. 7 - Cooper (Norton)
N. 8 - Ferrari 156
N. 9 - B.R.M. (G.P.)
N. 10 - Maserati
N. 11 - Mercedes
N. 12 - Vanwall VW Grand Prix"
For which I thank Angelo profusely, it's
always nice to ID something, but to get the other 18 with pictures takes the
biss'quit!
Now, from the photographs, I think it's
fair to say the main change was to the base section, but obviously some of the
bonnet numbers were changed in the second set/issue, the numbers Angelo has
given which explains the quirky-nature of the first seven's numbering.
Also I'm not sure which-is-which in the
second collage, but it gives a good idea of the colours available, through both
sets
Cheers Angelo!
