    HAVING HUNDREDS OF MODEL CARS TO CHOOSE FROM, MOSTLY PORSCHE AND CORVETTES, I HAVE DECIDED TO START LISTING SOME OF THESE HERE ON E-BAY. 95% OF THESE ARE ONE-OF-A-KINDS LISTINGS AND I WILL DO MY BEST TO SHOW YOU AN ARRAY OF PICTURES AND DESCRIBE THEM TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY. THIS
    NIEDERMEIER FRICTION DRIVEN SEDAN
    IS NO EXCEPTION TO THIS RULE!
    THIS
    NIEDERMEIER FRICTION DRIVEN SEDAN
    IS MADE OUT OF PRESSED TIN OR METAL. ALL OF THE GRAPHICS YOU SEE HERE ARE DONE VIA TIN LITHOGRAPHY AND ARE HERE TO STAY!
    THIS
    CAR WORKS PERFECTLY AND IS A REALLY COOL CAR TO WATCH IN ACTION!
    THE BODY OF THIS CAR HAS NO DIMPLES, CREASES, RUST OR CORROSION, YOU DO HOWEVER HAVE SOME GOOD WEAR FOUND THROUGHOUT THIS SEDANS BODY AND CHASSIS
    . THIS WEAR OR IMPERFECTIONS ARE ALL FROM PLAY WEAR AND USAGE .. PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT I AM NOT REPRESENTING THIS AS NOS (NEW OLD STOCK), BUT, AS A USED VINTAGE MODEL/TOY! YOU DO HAVE A SECTION OF THIS TIN LITHOGRAPHY WORN THROUGH TO THE METAL ON THE CENTER FRONT OF THE ROOF (AS PICTURED).
    THIS SEDAN HAS A CLEVER THIRD WHEEL ON THE CHASSIS WHICH IS PERPENDICULAR TO THE REAR WHEELS WHICH DRIVE THIS SEDAN. WITH THE UNIQUE DESIGN OF THE CHASSIS (YOU HAVE NO FRONT WHEELS HERE) THE CHASSIS IS DESIGNED TO BOTTOM OUT WHEN A LEDGE IS BREACHED. THIS WILL ALLOW THE CHASSIS TO DROP DOWN ONTO THIS THIRD WHEEL WHICH WILL REDIRECT THE SEDAN FROM FALLING TO IT'S DOOM.
    ONCE IT GAINS IT POSITION BACK FULLY ON THE TABLE TOP (OR IT'S FOOTING), IT WILL START TO GO STRAIGHT ONCE MORE AS THE FRONT END IS DESIGNED TO LIFT THE CHASSIS OFF OF THIS THIRD WHEEL WHEN NOT NEEDED ALLOWING IT TO GO STRAIGHT FORWARD.
    THIS VEHICLE MEASURES OUT AT ABOUT: 5.75 INCHES X 2.5 INCHES X 1.5 INCHES TALL (14.5CM X 6.5CM X 4CM TALL) AND HAS A NICE SOLID FEEL TO IT.
    THE CHASSIS OR BASE IN MADE FULLY OF TIN AND YOU DO HAVE SOME SIGNS OF PLAY~WEAR HERE AS WELL AS A GOOD AMOUNT OF TARNISH. THIS SHOULD BE EXPECTED FROM A TOY THAT HAS BEEN PLAYED WITH. ALL OF THESE SCRATCHES ARE SUPERFICIAL AND VERY LIGHT.
    THE WHEELS ARE MADE OF TIN AND HAVE A NICE RUBBER TREAD. THE FREE SPINNING WHEEL, WHICH IS THE WHITE WHEEL, IS MADE FULLY OUT OF TIN.
    THE FRICTION DRIVE IS 100% ORIGINAL AND STILL WORKS LIKE NEW. IT IS STRONG, POWERFUL AND LONG LASTING. IN ADDITION TO THIS, THE FRICTION DRIVE ALSO OPERATES THE SMALL THIRD WHEEL WHICH WORKS REALLY WELL.
    ALL OF THESE FUNCTIONS WORK AS ORIGINALLY DESIGNED TO WORK. YOU HAVE NO ISSUES OTHER THEN THE FACT THAT THIS IS THE ONLY ONE OF IT'S KIND HERE ON EBAY THAT IS FULLY OPERATIONAL, 100% COMPLETE AND BOXED!
    SPEAKING OF THE BOX, HERE YOU HAVE A VERY NICE EXAMPLE OF THE ORIGINAL BOX THAT HAS NO ADDED TAPE OR GLUE. ALL OF THE SMALLER INNER FLAPS ARE STILL ORIGINALLY ATTACHED. YOU ALSO HAVE ALL OF THE FRAIL LOCKING TABS ON THE END STILL PRESENT AND ORIGINAL.
    I DO ASK THAT YOU INSPECT MY PICTURES THOROUGHLY AS THESE DO BECOME A VERY IMPORTANT PART OF MY DESCRIPTION HERE! IF YOU'D LIKE TO SEE ANY PARTICULAR AREA OR FEATURE CLOSE UP, SIMPLY CONTACT ME AND LET ME KNOW WHAT IT IS YOU'D LIKE TO SEE MORE OF AND I'LL TAKE IT FROM THERE!
    BY MY STANDARDS AND POLICIES, I VERY RARELY DO NOT TEST WHAT IT IS I AM OFFERING HERE ON E-BAY. AFTER ALL JUST HOW DIFFICULT IS IT TO TEST A MODEL? ALL ONE NEED DO IS TO TOSS IN A FEW BATTERIES AND GIVE IT A GO, OR A SIMPLE PUSH TO SEE IF THE FRICTION DRIVE IS WORKING!  I AM NOT ONE OF THOSE SELLERS WHO WILL EVER SAY "THIS MODEL IS UNTESTED AND AS SUCH IT IS SOLD IN AS IS CONDITION" OR , "I HAVE NOT TESTED THE WIND-UP MECHANISM (CLOCK-WORK) AS I DO NOT HAVE A KEY, SO THIS WILL BE SOLD UNTESTED". THIS
    NIEDERMEIER FRICTION DRIVEN SEDAN MODEL NUMBER 320
    IS FULLY TESTED (AND WORKS PERFECTLY) AND WILL BE FULLY TESTED ONCE MORE, JUST PRIOR TO SENDING IT OFF. I DO THIS TWICE, JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT THE FIRST TESTING WAS NOT A FLUKE! I AM SURE WE BOTH DO NOT WANT ANY ISSUES HERE AND THIS IS ONE EASY STEP TO AVOID ANY!
    I TAKE PRIDE IN MY MODELS THAT I OFFER HERE IN THE E-BAY WORLD. I DO HAVE OPTIONS AND I CHOOSE TO OFFER ONLY THE VERY FINEST THAT I HAVE AVAILABLE.
    ALL-IN-ALL YOU WILL BE VERY, VERY HARD PRESSED TO LOCATE ANOTHER
    NIEDERMEIER FRICTION DRIVEN SEDAN
    THAT LOOKS LIKE AND WORKS LIKE THIS ONE DOES! ADD TO THIS THE FACT THAT YOU HAVE THE ORIGINAL BOX
    (IN ACCEPTABLE SHAPE/CONDITION) AND
    NOW YOU HAVE SOMETHING THAT ANY COLLECTOR WOULD BE PLEASED AND PROUD TO ADD TO THEIR PRIVATE COLLECTION!!
    ONCE AGAIN, PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT THESE PICTURES AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR DESIRE ADDITIONAL PICTURES, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME VIA E-BAY MESSAGING AND I WILL DO THE REST!
    THIS FULLY WORKING VINTAGE,
    TIN
    NIEDERMEIER FRICTION DRIVEN SEDAN
    IS AN EXCELLENT EXAMPLE OF A MODEL AND OF AN ERA THAT HAS LONG PASSED US BY.
    THIS IS A RELATIVELY NEW STORE FOR ME HERE ON E-BAY, BUT, I COME WITH A WELL OILED AND POLISHED TRACK RECORD! I AM CURRENTLY (NOT ON THIS ACCOUNT ... YET!!) A GOLD T/RATED P-Seller WITH OVER 7 YEARS OF THIS STATUS BACKING ME. I SPECIALIZE IN PRIMARILY THE AUTOMOTIVE FIELD AND I CONCENTRATE WITH/ON PORSCHE, BENTLEY, AUDI AND "
    PORSCHE DESIGN
    " ITEMS/ACCESSORIES.
    I HAVE A UPS ACCOUNT AND MOST OF MY OFFERINGS HERE SHALL BE SENT THAT WAY. I PACK EACH AND EVERY ITEM MYSELF AND DO SO AS IF I WERE RECEIVING IT. ALL OF MY DOMESTIC SHIPMENTS WILL BE INSURED FOR THE SELLING PRICE. I ENTER THE SHIPPING DATA DAILY INTO BOTH E-BAY AND PAYPAL. THIS
    NIEDERMEIER FRICTION DRIVEN SEDAN/CAR
    WILL BE SENT VIA THE USPS AND WILL BE FULLY INSURED.
    FOR MY INTERNATIONAL SHIPMENTS, THIS WILL BE SENT VIA EBAY'S "GLOBAL SHIPPING PROGRAM" (GSP), AS PROOF OF DELIVERY IS REQUIRED. UTILIZING THIS METHOD TO OBTAIN ONES SIGNATURE IS ADVANTAGEOUS TO "WE THE SELLERS". UNFORTUNATELY, I HAVE HAD MY FARE SHARE OF SCRUPULOUS BUYERS HERE ON EBAY. BY UTILIZING THIS METHOD ELIMINATES SOME OF THE ISSUES WHICH MIGHT ARISE FROM INTERNATIONAL SHIPMENTS.
    PLEASE NOTE
    : THAT I WILL HAVE TO INSURE THIS PARCEL FOR IT'S SELLING PRICE. AS SUCH, IT MUST BE DECLARED FOR IT'S SELLING VALUE. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY TAXES, DUTIES, IMPORT FEES OR ASSESSMENTS WHICH MIGHT BE LEVIED OR ACCESSED FROM ANY FOREIGN GOVERNMENT AT, OR PRIOR TO THE TIME OF DELIVERY. SO PLEASE BE PREPARED FOR THIS ON YOUR END! KEEP IN MIND THAT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO DECLARE AN ITEM FOR .00 AND THEN TURN AROUND AND INSURE IT FOR 0.00.
    IF YOU HAV
    E ANY PROBLEM WITH THIS, I STRONGLY SUGGEST THAT YOU PASS ON THIS AS I DO NOT NEED ANOTHER INTERNATIONAL BUYER WHO DOES NOT TAKE THE TIME TO READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS, BUT, YET TAKES THE TIME TO LEAVE BADLY PLACED FEEDBACK DU
    E TO THEIR IGNORA
    NCE!
    I ALSO ENCOURAGE AND ASK YOU TO TAKE A LOOK AT THE POSTAGE STAMP (IF THE USPS IS USED) ONCE YOU RECEIVE THE PARCEL FROM ME. I MAKE NO MONEY ON THE POSTAGE AND IN FACT, THIS USUALLY ENDS UP COSTING ME MONEY! BUT, IF YOU OVER-PAY ME BY ONE DOLLAR OR MORE THEN THE ACTUAL COST OF POSTAGE, I ALWAYS AND INSTANTLY REFUND 100% OF THE DIFFERENCE WITHOUT EVER HAVING TO BE ASKED! IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEM PAYING WHAT IT COSTS TO RECEIVE THIS BEAUTIFUL AND
    WORKING, VINTAGE
    TIN
    NIEDERMEIER FRICTION DRIVEN SPORTS CAR
    FROM ME IN A TIMELY AND SAFE MANNER, THEN ONCE AGAIN, I STRONGLY SUGGEST AND ASK THAT YOU PASS ON THIS.
    AS MENTIONED ABOVE, THIS IS A NEW AREA FOR ME (HERE ON E-BAY) AND I DO TRY MY BEST TO DO AS GOOD AS I CAN. THIS HAS BECOME A FULL TIME BUSINESS FOR ME AND I REALLY ENJOY DOING IT. I WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO TILL IT BECOMES A BURDEN AND I CAN NO LONGER ENJOY IT.
