I recently bought a Matchbox item at a local dollar store. I want to buy an additional eleven identical contemporary red farm tractors to serve as flat car loads for my HO scale model trains. Matchbox is unable to help me achieve this goal. Going from store to store and buying one at a time is not a viable option either. The question remains "How do I buy multiple pieces of an identical item at one time?" I would like the price to remain very near the level marked on the front of the original packaging. Yours respectfully, William Rupert willrupe@yahoo.com
Previous owner had 12-volt battery using 6-volt regulator, generator, starter, coil and points. How can I check for damage and how would I know if any 12-volt conversion has been done? Cover on regulator says 6-volt everything else looks original 6-volt. Also, is this a positive or negative ground system? Thanks.
Plastic tires do not have traction. Is there something that I can install myself besides having to buy over the internet?

My prediction is everything now that is used to run of of fuel like farm tractors, our vehicles and such, will be converted to use a nuclear energy to run. Just like were gonna have to do for our power source. But we need to advance on this technology now! Because we rely on the fossil to do so many things. We would not be able to get anything done without it, or after its gone. Think about it. Everything relies on it some how or is directly made from it. No more bagbomb or Carmex or the plastic it came in.
