"Ideal" Mechanical toy Boat vintage world war two "Torpedo Boat" wind up gunner. wind up did not move propeller when i tried it today, the propellor is suppose to turn and the gunner has a flint that sparks when it works. I have never had it spark, but it did wind up and turn propeller when I got it years ago in a flea market trade in Tallahassee, FL.
its old, there are many cracked plastic, missing driver and missing something on the roof of the cabin. referencing two other listing to show missing parts and age references, i will pack this is a large enough box with packing material to keep it safe, UPS shipping flat cost and no returns. This is a cool piece for someone who may have NAVY history in their family, for someone who has an emotional attachment to a relative that served in NAVY in WWII.
