I have no idea who made this toy Auto Factory… the box is just marked “Hong Kong” and aside from the slightly 1960’s looking artwork on the packaging, there’s no indication as to its age at all. This is the kind of toy that would have helped make a child into a life long gear head, much in the way similar toys did to me…
Although it’s pretty basic and not particularly interactive, it’s quite cleverly designed, as it assembles the little cars from the three main components, chassis, body and roof, using just a rubber conveyor belt powered but a little motor and a 1.5V battery. It needs some minor tweeking as there’s a bell that should ding as each car rolls off the line and the red light on the front should light up. Regardless, it’s a pretty neat and unique old car toy which I was well pleased to find…
