Why would you need to know how to put cars on the track? That's like common sense.

The Mustang looks very familiar to me. I swear I've seen it somewhere on the internet before, I just can't remember what exactly it is.

I went looking for my green body but couldn't find it. Thinking hard of what could this Mustang be that I had as a kid. Took a while to remember. Hotwheels Sizzlers!

well done Buss. Good Job ! Just you need to do something about getting it right side up. Other wise a great post. These could possibly be the smallest photos you have ever posted.

Yeah and it's probably the simplest mechanism in the lot he got although that Sizzler is from the late '60s early 70's while the others seem to be from the mid '70s onwards. If I was to pick a favorite from that lot, it would be that Mustang because it's one of my favorite cars of all time.
