One Medium Tin Truck Restored and Two Small Cast Iron Vehicles. All Three With Great Visual Appeal. Very appealing collection of three trucks. The larger tin pickup truck (favors a 1948 Diamond T201 Dually) was completely restored and very nicely re-finished with antiqued paints including bumpers and grills 6 x 11.5 x 5.5". The smallest 30s style automobile is a vintage original arcade cast iron truck with what appears to be its original paint. A screw that fuses the two halves of the two is possibly a replacement. 3 x 6 x 2" The larger cast iron dump truck may be vintage and not antique and appears to be a Chinese replica of sorts. Still heavy, tow cable and crank on driver's side works and dump bed does lift. 4.5 x 10 x 3". Again, all display beautifully and make for a great decor collection. Estimated Value $150 - 500
