I recently acquired the turquoise/red flash version, so now I have 'em all. Introduced in 1958 and withdrawn in 1962, at some point, 1959 or 1960, the cast wheels were replaced with spun metal. I think all had white tires with treads, but I could be proven wrong.
In 1961 a fire chief version appeared (sometimes called Canadian Fire Chief).
Also in 1961, the casting was revised to make a 1960 Cross Country wagon. Too bad they didn't use this for the fire chief.

Pretty cool little cars Harv, colors notwithstanding.

Congratulations on your acquisition Harv. Always nice to fill in the gaps.

Nice score Harv. I have all of these in my collection and love them. Just to keep a certain someone "color suppressed" for a change....how about we call the colors turquoise and dark red and the other one pink and blue? No chance of the "Woeful Wagon" appearing yet again that way. Lol.
