DESCRIPTION The Playart vehicles produced in the 1970's and 1980's, also known as Fast Wheels, are some of most interesting diecast to come out of Hong Kong. Difficult to find today, they are inexpensive and often offer examples of small-scale cars done by no other company. Number 1010 in the series is a 1969 Jaguar 'E' type 2+2. Windows are clear with a ivory interior and the black tires have painted silver mag wheels. Playart also produced 'in-house' diecast for Woolworths, McCrory and Sears stores.
