Hello, new here.

Hello, I just joined FTE. Was wondering if there's any interest in scale Ford trucks? I customize old junk Tonka/Nylint trucks. sorry about the picture size. Everything but the hood, tires and door sides was hand made.
Anyone build scale trucks? -shawn

Pretty nice job you did. I follow a guy on Youtube that takes old items like a Tonka and makes them look new again. I still have some old steel toys at home I played with as a kid shoved away in a closet.

Makes me wish I still had my Structo truck....

Possibly this one. Color scheme and cab seems familiar, pretty sure it was single rear axle, but it had a cylinder in the back with the release lever by the driver's door. Hauled a lot with that truck while my dad was hauling with a '48 F6.
