The Rolls Royce was too cool to not grab,I plan on repainting it some day. The pickup is one of those old "connectables" vehicles,where it separates in half,I've never seen it,nor have I seen any other connectables in a long time. Does anyone know what kind of truck its based on? I'm guessing its based on the ford stepside,but I could be wrong..

I'd guess Ford stepside too. All the Motorcraft labels on it has me leaning that way.

That Rolls Royce looks like it's one of the old Kenner cars, at least that's what the rims look like.

The matchbox is a ford, look on the base of the rolls and see what is says on it!!!

Indeed - collectors call those, and I quote, "KNOBBLY" wheels!
