First edition vintage collectable
In the mid 1960’s, it was still common to have real steel toys made in the USA. This vintage 1965 Tonka Car Truck Carrier Transporter is an American classic. Steel 18 1/4” long toy truck, made in Mound, Minnesota. It’s a two piece design with tractor cab and fleet carrier. Very good condition with only minor scratches. The fifth wheel (a plastic U shaped piece) is missing. Also missing are the original metal ramps. Otherwise it’s in great shape and the painted steel looks very good for being over a half century old.
