1958 Pink Buick Convertible by City Cruiser

This pink Buick is one of four convertibles in this private collection; two are Ford Thunderbirds, and two are Buicks. It would appear that these were all made in the Hong Kong factory for City Cruiser in the earliest years, though I find no indication of their year of production.

I am assuming they are from one of the earliest production runs. Other copies of these models I have seen online come with a nice cardboard box with plastic windows. However, I will ship these older cardboard backings with each model, so you, the new owner, will have the names of the other models in this collection. There are 12 models listed on the card.

They come on a black cardboard hanger with a yellowed and brittle display bubble on each card. That would be one clue that they were made quite a few years ago. These same convertibles can be found for sale now, but in a rectangular box with cellophane windows, and the cars have doors and hoods that open up.

The New Ray company which first made the City Cruiser models still exists and makes a variety of toys and collectors' diecast models in their factory in China. But aside from a few photos it is hard to find anything more about these older vintage models.

I will ship these older cardboard backings with each model, so you, the new owner, will have the names of the other models in this collection.

If you happen to be a long-time collector, you may have more information to share with me.

(I can be persuaded to sell all four of these convertibles for $20 Cdn as a set.)
