This is not a toy, but rather a book, Volksy the Little Yellow Car.

This is a great item if you can find one!

An ad for the Tonka VW in a Canadian catalog. Tonka did have a Canadian factory, and it will be marked on the sticker on the back.

I'll take one in every color!

Great vintage photo of the Taiyo bump-and-go

The hook on the front is to keep it from falling off a table. It will change direction when it reaches the edge.

Taiyos came in many variations. Here you can see the two hubcap styles, early and late.
