That Hubley LaSalle is one of if not my favorite toy car.

I don't remember seeing yours before, David, but it is quite similar to one I have done. If I am going to restore a toy, I go all the way. Bare metal on all the chrome trim makes a world of difference. Mine is painted red. Unfortunately it is packed away and not available for photos. I have the standard Cadillac version in a similarly over-restored style which is light green I think.

Long live white tires!

As always David, your collection never disappoints.

I have never seen the Hubley LaSalle. Awesome
