 DESCRIPTION

The Penny Cars produced in the late 1960's and early 1970's by Polistil, also known as Politoys are some of most delightful little cars ever produced. Difficult to find and often quite expensive, these toy cars are miniature treasures. Number 0/53 in the series is the combination of 0/32, the Iso Rivolta with a speed boat and trailer. The Rivolta is one of Iso's lesser known models. It is powered, like the better known Grifo, by a Chevrolet V8. Windows are clear with a grey interior, the hood opens and the black tires have silver hubs. The boat is removable and actually floats quite well.
