AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful and authentic antique American cast-iron race car: an original Hubley Boattail Racer No. 6 from the 1930s.
This model is an icon among pre-war toys. The car is finished in the original yellow paint with an integrated silver-colored driver behind the steering wheel. At the front the silver details of the grille and the exhaust pipes stand out immediately. On the distinctive pointed rear end the number '6' is embossed in the cast iron.
Specifications & State:
• Manufacturer: Hubley Manufacturing Co., Lancaster, PA (USA).
• Material: Heavy cast iron.
• Condition: In 100% original, played-with condition with beautiful old patina and the characteristic paint loss that belongs to toys of almost a century old (see photos). The cast iron is completely intact without cracks. Notably, the four original white rubber tires are still mounted on the red rims. The axles and wheels rotate smoothly.
A splendid collector's item that fits perfectly in a collection of antique toys or automobilia.
