Mystery Car 1010     The Mystery Car 1010 was one of Schuco's early models. Its "No Fall" action was found on many toys including the smaller Mirakocar 1001 and the Mirakobus (not yet in my collection). This toy when wound would drive to the end of the table then turn suddenly, just in time, to avoid falling. It was also designed to turn when hitting A object. To see another example of the 1010 click on the above picture       This blue Mystery Car has been running for about 50 years, but, alas, it center drive wheel has finally deteriorated beyond repair and she now sits retired in my personal collection.
