This was a Ken Films release, on Super 8. I just sold a complete 16mm scope print in Technicolor on ebay. It's a very cute film!

Hi Gerard,
I indeed have the interest of this title after seeing your auction. I rented the DVD and found this movie was so good.
I wondered why if we could have "Mad, Mad, Mad world" and "Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machine" on color digest and full feature, but although "Jalopies" has the same fun and theme was never released even as a color digest.
In fact I found no full feature ever released on super 8mm.
Was this film not that successful as two films I mentioned earlier?
