While the present embodimentof the invention only proposes: to use this type or rear mounting in connection with the rear axles W it will of course, be apparent that it is'within the teaching and scope of the invention to apply this feature to theiront'wheels also in event that it is desired to design the toy with aprons or masks for the front-wheels. F
The spare tire or spare wheel simulating member C preferably includes the mounting member 6 carried by a su'pportir-igsectionfi and whose outer surface 6 may be rounded or curved, while the periphery or rim may be grooved thereby to receive an elastic annular member -9 simulating a spare tire. Thus, it Willb'e apparent that the spare tire and the parts 6, 6e, and 6 constitute in effect the simulation of a spare wheel.

constituting a part of the spare tire or spare wheel device, and is also formed as at B to provide a keeper portion adapted for engagement by the spare tire or spare wheel. The-opening or slot is made large enough to afford proper clearance of the member 6 in assembling the body and the chassis, and after these'two parts are in final position, the spare tire simulating member 9 may be readily mounted-0n the support S'thereby to releasably lock the body to the chassis.
From the foregoing it will be apparent that the chassis and body may be readily assembled in the mannerheretofore generally set forth, and indicated in Fig. 4. Whenever it is-desired'tosep arate the parts, it is simply necessaryto remove the elastic ring 9' simulating the sparetire and the body and chassis-will readily'come apart.
