I know of someone that collects Fun Ho toys.
They are quite tough, and even with worn paint or an odd missing wheel they might still be sought after.
If you have any of these, or find any, please do let me know and I can put you in touch with a collector/buyer.

I have a few old fun ho's at home. A couple I've dug, others I've bought at garage sales.
I'll dig them out and put some pic's on here in a week or so.

I've got a few, but I like to keep them for people who are interested when I explain. Then again, they are really munted. One was squashed in by a truck. But looks like you will have luck finding people for that on this forum.
