Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes

How do you like the lift kit I made to fit the big tires on?Tonka never made the Gladiator with big tires.I have a `58ish (Ford) fullsize Tonka Flareside PU I restored as a Hiway Dept truck that`s lifted with the grader tires on it.I`ll have to dig it out for pictures(and sell...)

It`s hit`n`miss now on Ebay.But,I did peek at old toy trucks the other day and say a mismatched Tootsie Toy low-boy (Matchbox Major trailer/early`60s GMC coe tractor) that was up to over $200!!!I was interested because of the GMC cab.I`m aware of toy values and have a huge collection.But,that made no sense at all!I collected alot in the 80s and into the 90s and have a huge collection.I`m ready to do just what you said and put that money into something I can "use".If they don`t bring good money I`ll keep them.
