This is a repainted Pepsi Scrambler Jeep Go Kart. Several of these are shown at the CJ-8 page, including one with the original design.  The Kart should have a windshield.

“For sale is an early 80’s Pepsi Promotional Jeep Go kart. Rare, Runs and drives great. This would be a great project to restore for parades or car shows. The fiberglass has some breaks and cracks in it as you can see in the pictures. It has a 3hp Briggs and Straton motor. The last picture is of one I found on the internet to show what they looked like when new. This is not a picture of mine. My go kart did not come with a windshield or have any indication of ever having one.”

I can’t tell how large/small the vehicles are.

“You are bidding on a vintage U.S. Armed Forces Battle Front Giant Set. This set is in the original box. All the items in the set are plastic and are in very good condition. I am noting items that are broken or things that I see, but I am not an expert on these toys. So, please take a close look at the pictures that I have posted. Manufactured by Multiple Products Corporation, New York, NY. Made in the USA. The set includes tank, weasel, exploding bridge, missile carrier, shooting cannon, personnel carrier, 2 jeeps, one with a canapy, army truck, 3 tents (one says U.S. Army N.Q. 351st Infantry), 5 pieces of barbed wire fences, 5 drivers (blue men that are sitting), 30 soldiers, and accessories.

The bridge does not explode. There is a spring on the bottom, and what appears to be a broken part in the box, so it does not work. There is a white missile with a red base (not pictured), but I don’t know what vehicle it goes with, or even if it goes with the set. It is possible that there is a part missing from one of the vehicles that holds this missile. The cannon has the spring, and it pulls back to shoot something, but I don’t know what. The canapy on the army truck does not appear to sit properly and stay on. One of the tents is missing 2 legs. It is possible that there were more than 5 pieces of barbed wire fence. Accessories: There are 6 rifles, some of the soldiers have helmets which can be removed and put on other soldiers. There are a few belts and bullet proof vests, but there were probably more accessories in the original set. The items are clean except for some dust on some of the vehicles. The vehicles appear to have all their wheels and they do not look broken.”

I know Smokey the Bear, but never heard of Sandy the Bear.  This includes a box in poor condition.

“This is a vintage battery operated Cragstan Jeep with Flexible Smokey Bear and Sandy bendy figures in original box. Made in Hong Kong. Model # 2579-1. About 11″ long. Toy is in C9.5+ shape. I put batteries in and it worked well (the gear lever is the on and off switch) but the battery door can barely close due to poor manufacturing tolerances. Box is in C4 shape, pretty torn up as you can see in the pics.”

This includes the box.

“Here’s another amazing item from my huge collection. This is a near mint example of a Japanese tin searchlight jeep with artillary trailer. Made by TN (Nomura) toys, this one has spent it’s life in it’s box and was rarely played with. There are really no issues to report. Paint is like new on both units. Lithograph on soldiers is excellent. There are no scratches anywhere. No rust. No dents, etc. Battery compartment on Jeep is excellent. I put a battery in and the searchlight and rear wheels worked fine. Artillary trailer rotates as it moves. The only issue is one of the two rivets that hold the searchlight onto it’s base has come loose. I’m sure someone could easily fix it as it just needs to be popped back in.We also have the original box with wonderful graphics. There is a hand-written “$2.00″ on the front and one corner is torn and coming loose. The base does have the carboard divider though! It’s incredible to find one in this condition with it’s box intact. Jeep measures about 7-1/2″ long and the trailer measures about 6″ long.”

This riding radio flyer with a jeep grille is pretty cool.  If only I had known about this when my kids were small.

“This is a well used vintage wood push car from Radio Flyer. The front looks like a jeep. There are some cracks in the wood as well as stains and fading. The steering and horn works and has a squeaker inside. The car measures 24″ long and 14” wide including the tires. This car is very well used and has some issues but still rolls and steers fine. The largest crack is on the left “drivers” side and measures 6″ long.”
