I just bought those a year ago and still live those and I’m in my mid 40s! Love em!

I fantacized that it was a real car. Mine had a "rewound" motor that cost $3, as much as the Car cost. That I imagined as being a Hemi. It would spin those skinny little tires in a corner and slide.

I liked this one better. I'd launch it off the picnic table like it was an aircraft carrier...

My Flexy Flyer circa 1966-67-ish

 

[eldubb440]

rusty metal swing set with sharp rusty bolt ends sticking out (little plastic caps didnt last long)

it would come off the ground if you swung high enough, then we'd jump off

oh, and the sliding board, lol........Karen would never let her kids play on such a thing today

here is an accurate example lol

You’ll shoot your eye out Kid Esoxer too

I loved my Schwinn Pea Picker 5 speed wild dragster, green 'krate'
IIRC it had a wheelie bar of some sort too
ramhorn handelbars, tall sissy bar, slick rear tire, metal-flake bannana seat
worked my butt off mowing lawns to get it, was like $98
took all summer mowing everyone in our courts' lawns
to get/earn the $$

green army men hot wheels and building bunkers in the dirt with popsicle sticks then burning it all down with a can of lighter fluid , riding in cars with no seat belt with steel dashes , you learned to stay seated when dad jacked the brakes and bounced you off the dash , how did we survive, I guess you have to learn common sense with a little practical experience

I did shot my brother Tim & sister Candy every so often,
we'd play Cowboys & Indians

my brother Tim got me back,
he shot me with a target arrow in the calf
barely broke skin, at about 10 y/o-ish

 

[MGKelly]

My favorite toy as a boy.

 

[Budnicks]

my mom would buy
them paddles with a rubber line/string & red ball attached
we'd hit rocks or dirt clods after they broke

I think she got them for US
so she could use them to paddle my butt
when or "if" she could catch me (you wait till dad is home)
when they were no longer useful as a toy
