I got this set today! I never dreamed of having it because I always found it was very expensive. But yesterday I found this one which was 40% cheaper that the rest I've seen in argentina so I bought it! and I already have it with me.
(im still waiting for my Happy Witch 4550. I lost all hope of getting her for my Halloween photo shooting on saturday)




PROs: reasonably cheap and complete (even has an extra kid)
CONS: the felthiest toy I've ever bought. Disgunting. Full of dirt and stains... like melted ice cream. I don't even want to think of what it was. And had a stench of tobacco smoke that is still present after washing it for an hour.  :(  Oh! one front light was broken... >:(
Anyway..... SUPER HAPPY i have this classic car!!!!!!!!!! :love: :love: :love: :love: :love: Now my countess needs a driver!!

I recommend using Plastruct Plastic Weld glue for a more permanent repair. Super Glue can be used also, but not as good of a repair. I have done repairs to my 3526 fire engines that prior to finding this type of glue I could never have done! It is a miracle! Be sure to use carefully & read directions thoroughly!

Thank you guys!!

@ Dino I use an instant adhesive gel that contains CIANOCRILATE, I guess the equivalent would be super glue. You use only one tiny drop. It is very good. Can't be used on clear parts because it turns them white though. Be carefull. But for colored plastic is great and fast.

Oh, congratulations on getting this car! It's very hard to find one that is affordable. I'm sorry it was such a mess, but hopefully it will clean up ok. And i guess it's better than not having one at all.  ;)

In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

Yesterday this arrived! I LOVE IT. My first 100% steck set and I think I've fallen in love with it. So steck lovers you have a new sidekick!  ;D



But the best part of it ...was this.....



It is Antex.
I didn't know when I bought it.
I couldn't believe it when I saw it! Enough prove that Antex quality was PERFECT back then. This was made in 1984.
Im so happy today!!  :love:
