Our next three from 1971! Believe it or not, we're almost done with the year....but nooooot quite! So, here you go!

First, we have The Heavyweights Snorkel. This car is often hard to find with all the parts of the crane. |

But here it is, in all its glory! Interestingly enough, The Heavyweights mainly used two basic trucks- the all in one model here, and a cab and trailer model. Therefore these two do not have the name of the model on the chassis like all the other cars of this era. Now you know! |

Next, we have the Special Delivery! I'm not sure what the logistics would look like with a supercharged mail truck, but here it is. |

The "special feature" of this car is an opening mail box. It really doesn't work very well, since you just bend the plastic back to open it. |

Finally, we have the Strip Teaser. I'm kind of hot and cold on the complete fantasy designs, but this one is kind of cool. |

The canopy opens so the driver can get in and out. I assume he would bring his own periscope to see over that huge engine. |
So there you go! I hope everyone had a great Christmas and here are hopes for a happy and prosperous 2019! Cheers!
Until next time, keep searching for treasure!
