Awesome, I hope they make them easier to find than the Datsun 620's were a few years back. I never saw one in a store only later at the swap meet diecast guys booth for $10.

still a sweet little toy

Mineral spirits will remove the stripes without harming the yellow paint but it is slow going. Acetone is faster but will take the yellow off too. This is my first shot at a repaint.

Yep, most want a fortune, I got mine 2 for $9.99 shipped! 8) Once the newness wears off they should go to a couple of bucks.
