Here are a couple that I haven't seen mentioned elsewhere. They are listed as 1/25, part # 25-15 '30 Ford Woody (yellowed from age), and part # 25-10 Cobra. If you have any others or ads related to this company, please add.
I just noticed two addresses on the back of the cards. The Cobra came from 2537 N. San Gabriel Blvd, South San Gabriel, Calif., and the Woody came from 119 E. Valley Blvd, also in San Gabriel.

Is Rainbow the company that also used a few colored plastics for some slot car bodies?

That I don't know. Hawk made those tinted clear bodies in blue and yellow, but maybe you didn't mean that.

WOW! I'd love to repop that woody.

That was one of the first vac bodies I ever bought. For years I assumed it had yellowed from the original clear, but thinking about Bill's comment it's possible that they molded it in a yellow tint, hard for me to say for sure.
