Lines Bros Tri-Ang #2 Minic Sports Car w/ Gear Select Tin Car *SOLD*

Lines Bros Tri-Ang #2 Minic Sports Car w/ Gear Select Tin Car

In comparison to most of their peers, the Tri-Ang cars are some of the more intricately designed clockwork toys. Similar to Schuco toys, they can feature the additions of functional steering, multiple gear selection, and nicely detailed tin.

 

This example meets all of that above criteria. Nicely designed deep red frame with chrome/tin-accented trim. The interior has a functional steering wheel mounted next to a lithographed dashboard.

 

Gear lever selects between Reverse, Neutral, and 4 variable speeds (1-4). There is also a Start/Stop brake lever.

 

Car is in excellent condition, with a few minor spots of paint loss. There is some very light oxidation on the tin trim. The clockwork is strong and functions well at all different gears. The gear shifter is a little stubborn.

 

The original box shows some moderate edge wear and some mild discoloration, but makes a great partner for display.

 

Measures approx. 6-7/8” Long
