Stew, Cool ... that scale is the easiest to display. olds, 1) Agreed, it is a sweet hobby. Wish I had the room for that large of an HO-scale train layout! Those WW2 scenes would be interesting. 2) Aftermarket. It is a 1958 Motorola in a 1957 Ford truck. 3) I much prefer the full-sizers, too! 4) LOL ... interesting plans for each of 'em!

It has been rather interesting watching the votes-comments on this. On the Facebook page, the Buick clearly had the upper hand. But on the boards (so far, anyway), the truck has had the edge. So, it may be more of a tie than I thought it'd be.....sweet. olds ... I cringe b/c I don't have the answers for you. I THOUGHT I (or my cousin) had taken another pic of that entire truck (with that information written on the passenger's side of the windshield), but I'm not finding it. So, I'm thinking neither of us did, thinking the other of us HAD. *rolls eyes* I apologize. BUT, if I do come across an image of it, I'll answer your queries.

Hmmm ... yeah, that might have something to do with it. I hated dirt & mud (still do), tho I don't mind sand. Never used the dump truck in the sandbox, tho ... heck, I don't even really remember ever taking it outside, but ... I'm sure I did. Anyway, it was reminiscing about childhood toys that led me to create the "Monday Night Fun" theme ... to celebrate those toys of childhood.

Interesting. My childhood was similar, mostly HW & MB ... but, I did have some Tonka trucks ... including an orange dump truck which my Nephew plays with now.
