 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. A rare car in the series is a 1969 Jensen Interceptor FF. The FF was the 4-wheel drive version and is noted by the twin air vents on the front quarter panals. Windows are clear with a blue interior and the black tires have inset silver wheels. Playart also produced 'in-house' diecast for Woolworths, McCrory and Sears stores. For a full story on Playart, visit the 'Tales of Toy Cars' Webzine.
