“1950’s pedal car Nellybelle from Roy Rogers TV show. Bought new tires but not installed. I was debating on restoring but decided to leave as is. Shows value from 2015 auction (not this jeep.) Windshield folds down. Mecum is selling one in September.”
SOLD, according to eBay.
Seems like a lot of money or do they all go for that much?
John,
Yep, its’ more than I’d pay, but for a collector of Roy Rogers items, it might just be the type of thing you can no longer find.

Slightly off topic, with the passing years, I wonder how healthy the Roy Rogers market is?
Heck, his TV show was almost before my time and I’m 60+!
Back in the ’90s before the internet pretty much ended such events, I went to an antique toy sale and recall a guy wearing a sign in his back..”Wanted:Roy Rogers merchandise “.
About the same time I saw a neat documentary on TV about him which prompted me to get an autographed photo from his museum. I still have it.
