'53-56 owners, here's a toy you might be interested in

I found this while searching CL, figured you newer truck guys might be interested if you're in the Minnesota area. Looks like a HUGE collection of toys but I think you guys would like this:

That looks cool!

But where would you find a set of wheels to replace those widow makers?

Widowmakers? I thought those were period Alcoa prototypes.

Nice find........but that cab needs a bit of reworking to look right tho. Having said that I'd still be happy to come across it locally.

Wow! What a collection.

If you like automotive type toys, pedal cars, old gas pumps and signs, you should check out the collection before the links go dark. It’s pretty amazing.
