View Full Version : INFO needed on this car TycoHobbyMan 03-13-2005, 12:35 PM I have a older looking car it looks to me like a willies coupe of some sort it is red with yellow rips and says BAD TO THE BONE on the trunk any info would help thanks, Chris joez870 03-13-2005, 01:32 PM Sounds like a tyco 40' ford coupe. Chromy engine glued to the hood? It would be an HP7 (can-motor solid bar traction magnet) or a 440x2 wide chassis (motor parts and magnets installed individually) It came in several diferent paints too! What ever the colors and chassis, I LOVE that 5 window coupe! jeauxcwails 03-13-2005, 03:18 PM Probably an old Aurora Willys. Some Aurora cars came with a decal sheet enclosed with cutesy sayings. boss9 03-13-2005, 05:04 PM Hello, That car is a Tyco HP-7 from the Hot Rod series. There were 4 cars offered--The 80's Corvette, the 60 Corvette, the 57 Chev, and the 40 Ford Coupe. There were 2 colour versions of that particular Ford, one blue, the other red. All of the cars in the series had the blowers sticking on the hood. Cheers.. rodco 03-14-2005, 12:37 AM It could be the Willies Aurora Xlerator series, I recall that "Bad to the Bone" as one of the vintage water slide decals? GoodwrenchIntim 03-14-2005, 05:43 PM this one? dlw 03-14-2005, 05:52 PM Boss9 nailed it. It's a Tyco Classic Hot Rods Car. And the chassis is most likely an HP7. Valuewise, it's not much of an amount. TycoHobbyMan 03-14-2005, 08:15 PM Sorry guys it reads The good and the rad red and yellow with blower on the hood A/FX Nut 03-14-2005, 09:14 PM Without looking at the picture it is a TYCO. I had one just like it. As mentioned before it came with the HP7 chassis under it. :) AfxToo 03-14-2005, 10:00 PM It's a Tyco for sure. Some of the cars in this series came with the HP440 chassis, which is basically a pan version of the 440 chassis (single traction magnet). joez870 03-14-2005, 10:38 PM It's a Tyco for sure. Some of the cars in this series came with the HP440 chassis, which is basically a pan version of the 440 chassis (single traction magnet). Yeah....odd lil buggers. They put them under the 2 for 1 tractor-trailers too.
