It could, but I don't think so. Suspension and a pneumatic pump on
top does not seem like a very good mix, but who knows?


There could still be a springless tilting suspension, the kind which
always keeps all four wheels on the ground, even with some uneven
surface.  This is the kind you would typically see on the front wheels
of a real vehicle like this.

Yeah, you're right! There seems to be a ball joint towards the chassis which
don't make sence if it don't have suspension.

I don't see any steering mechanism in the images, but I am sure that
this set has front wheel steering.  Do anybody know if it has
rack-and-pinion steering?

The old photo is of no help other then to verify the front wheel steering.
