Old White semi

[junkyardjeff]

I picked it up today at a thrift type store and since it was the oldest toy I grabbed it,its about the same size or slightly larger as the kingsize Matchbox and Corgis. Its made by a company I never heard of,the Winross company of Rochester NY.

Nice find! I've heard of them, they have been making trucks for a long time.

I only paid 10 dollars for the one I have so it looks like I done well,it is missing one of the doors on the trailer but otherwise in really nice shape.

I have a few posted on here. They are 1/64 scale and nice trucks. The market is not as hot as it once waw but I like them. 

$10.00 No shipping is good even with a missing door.  Check the completed auctions for a better feel of what they sell for.

I can not pass up old toy trucks if they are priced right.

There are almost 7000 Winross trucks on ebay and the prices are all over the place so I did not do as good as I thought but I like it and might get more.

My bus is larger than a 1/64th...maybe 1/43rd..?

Id like to find 1/25th scale camping trailers that look 50s-70s era...plastic or resin...been wanting to build one to put behind my 69 Plymouth 4door wagon I made.
