Maybe some Cadillac expert could explain the [i]de Ville[/i] // [i]62 Series[/i] difference? It seemed to be trim levels first, and became separate series in 1959? (Edit: passed by Lateef. Next time, I'll refresh the page before posting :) )[/quote]

Anyway, it was intended to be a generic model, nothing more. It's like the upcoming Lolux, a customised pickup with most body panels removed. Because of the pun name, everybody will say it's based on a Toyota Hilux, but it's probably just a generic design.

well.. that takes an unexpected twist...
Thanks Exiv96 :smile:

I'd say it's closer to a Minicab. Meanwhile, the not-Wikia-anymore article mentions a Daihatsu Hijet too.

Thanks opal :smile:

Japanese wiki link doesn't work ( at least to me, gives only japanese writing which leads to more japanese writing on each link i click on ) but its a great start

time to resurrect an oldie...
i bought this a few days ago and i would like to know if its based on a real Kei truck and if so, the year range

thanks :smile:

i might have some of them
red unknown flat bed truck
orange Land Rover pick-up
red Monaco/Fury/LTD ( not sure which one they tried to represent, single headlight might suggest the Mopar twins )

not sure if they are Tomte but they have the same wheels as in Ingo's link
sadly, i can't take a pic of them right now as the camera is dead and i don't have a cell phone

you mean like my Escort or a different toy maker ?

I think, he mean the Norwegian "Tomte"-cars

https://www.google.de/search?q=gummiauto+tomte&biw=1665&bih=916&source=lnms&tbm=- isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwimnM3O14jRAhXYMlAKHc5JAlsQ_AUIBigB

Right now I don' t have the time to check them, but I still own a Mercedes 190 SL, a Rolls Royce Silver Wraith(?) Convertible, a Ford Thunderbird Convertible, a truck, a Renault Caravelle and a tow truck.

But the tow truck and two 1967 Mercury Cougar-rubber cars are looking different. The have different wheels and IIRC they are not made by Tomte, but by a West German company.
