    I bought this Flexy Racer on Craigslist, the decals top and bottom were both original, but the Racer was in terrible shape, so I stripped it. All the Rivets are original, just replaced a few nuts and bolts, used some steel wool on the Flexy caps.
    Thanks for looking !

      This is way cool! I'm 67 years old but remember my Flexy Racer that I had until 1957. It would really build up speed on any paved hill in Tulsa, Oklahoma where I lived at the time. Good engineering with a low center of gravity, ball-bearing, rubber tired wheels, spring centered steering and even hand operated brakes! Thanks for keeping a bit of the past alive!
