This listing is for a very nice example of a 1950\'s, friction powered ISETTA 588.
DESCRIPTION: Tin Litho. Friction powered which works. Made in Japan. About 6 1/2\" (L) x 4\" (w) x 3 1/2\" (h). Front door opens and closes as it should.
CONDITION: This piece sat on a man\'s shelf for decades. I blew off the dust and wiped it down gently with warm water. It may not be perfect but it sure is in extremely nice condition for its age as you can see by the pics. Very minor wear here and there. Biggest issue is that it is missing a wheel cover (on driver side as shown). It does have slight surface rust, mainly around the front and back windows and on the small back piece above the license plate. Also has surface rust on wheels, mainly on the front passenger.
SHIPPING: I will ship this piece via USPS PRIORITY MEDIUM FLAT RATE box as a discounted ($9) cost to the winning buyer. I will pick up the balance.
I love this car and debated long and hard before listing. Only doing so because I have two. Will make a great display piece in your collection. Feel free to ask any questions you may have. Thanks for looking.
