Abstract

[Problems to be Solved] The present invention has been made to solve such a problem and has an object to enable a more enhancement in opening/closing stability of left and right doors in reliable abutment of a bottom area provided under the doors of a body formed by a resin on a reinforcing member formed of a metal in an ornamental minicar configured to fix the reinforcing member formed of a metal to the body having the doors configured openably. [Means for Solution] A reinforcing member 20 formed of a metal is fixed to a body 10 formed by a resin to which left and right doors 12 are to be attached openably, and a bottom portion 16 positioned under the doors 12 is fixed to a frame portion 29 of the reinforcing member 20. Consequently, the body 10 is molded by a resin to easily enable processing of a fine part, and at the same time, the body 10 (particularly, a side sill member 13 portion positioned directly under the door 12) is caused to be flexed with difficulty by the reinforcing member 20 formed of a metal. Thus, it is possible to enable opening/closing stability of the door 12 to be exhibited and to enable a massive feeling to be exhibited when a user performs holding in a hand.
