Pretty good.

How you doing?

Get this finished.

JJ forward Lotus.

All right.

It's pretty cool.

Just the box.

No, there's a car inside there.

Let's check it out here.

Mine if I had it.

So where'd you get this?

Friend of mine was having a garage sale and we headed on the shelf and I decided tow Grab it because it's kind of rare.

Does it work?

Yes.

That's not annoying.

I'm coming into the pawn shop today to sell my Lotus Ford Formula Race car.

I'm looking to get $650 today.

I got my race car from a grad sale and it's in perfect condition.

It's pretty cool.

The evolution of the toy car.

Now, if you pick something up like this is a Christmas gift for your kid, better have a remote control.

Yeah, the lotus is pretty cool, though.

They've been making cars since the fifties, they still make cars in America.

You're do race cars and they do cars for civilians, but they're pretty beefed up fast.

So what drew you to this?

Well, you know, I'm a toy collector and it's vintage sixties.

And that piece there is always one of the pieces that are always broke.

It is so fragile.

So they have that piece with that car really makes it try to find one of those.

Oh, yeah, definitely broke through its definitely glued.

But like he said, I'm sure these things break all the time.

I mean, it's pretty cool.

What do you have to do with it?

I like to sell it.

And how much are you looking to get?

I'm looking for 6 50 Um, I really need to have someone come down and take a look at this because it's a really nice piece.

But I'm worried about this crack right here, and the box looks like it's in pretty good condition, but it does have some warping.

You could have a nice backs and that a nice toy, though.

Your goal is for collecting to have a nice toy and a nice ball catcher, all original pristine condition.

That's where you get the big, big money.

So you have a few minutes.

I'll call buddy of mine in.

He specializes in antique toys, and he could tell us exactly what you have here and how much he thinks it would go for it.

Sounds cool.

Give me just a minute.

I'll give him a call.

I have no problem having the expert look at this item because I think he's going to appraise it for higher than what I'm asking for.

Pretty good.

How you doing?

Oh, man.

Good.

Steve, this is Gerry's Lotus Ford F one.

What do you think this is a cool car, man.

You know, unlike the mid 19 sixties, the cars were starting to evolve.

We were used to the 10 toys we were used to maybe like a Tonka.

That was just a a stationary vehicle.

And then companies started producing actual functioning cars.

Yeah, I think it's pretty cool.

It seems like it's in good condition, but my biggest concern is like this.

Little looks like it's been cracked and glued back together.

Spoilers on these usually don't exist.

So for you even have one in front of you is really awesome.

Listen, if I have this toy, I think wouldn't have lasted two hours, I would have jumped it off.

It would have been done as far as the box condition goes, Chump, You sound a little concerned on it, and I'll be honest with you.

I think it's actually a pretty nice box.

The writing's good.

The pictures good.

Just wasn't sure.

And you gotta think about how old this is, What kind of value can be put on it.

So overall, it looks like it's in really good shape here.

This is the condition that you look toe find stuff in.

I've seen some of these going like the 808 $150 range.

I would say this one.

I think he'd have no problem getting somewhere between, you know, 625 to $700 for this.

You're gonna have a collector is definitely gonna want this.

I think it's fair.

Fair?

That's what you came in asking for.

I'll let you guys get to your business.

All right.

Thank you.

Beautiful car box, I guess is in really good condition.

He says, Would you take 3 75?

No, I think it's worth a little more.

I think 4 50 Sounds like a good price.

Gives you some room to make some money.

Would you do for 25 now for 50?

You're stuck on 4 50 0 man.

E.

I think that leaves me enough for him.

I could do for you.

Thank you.

All right.

I'll meet you at the counter.

Let's write it up.

Okay.

Thank you.

I paid $15 for it.

So the 4 50 is really good score.

I feel great.
