fancyvern Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 This is a IHC tractor/trailer set you could buy in the mid to late 50's I believe. The tractor is a CO190 model. You could get it at the IHC truck dealerships. This one was all yellow. They had another one that was all red with just a single axle trailer. I never found any information so i am just repeating what I've been told over the years i have had it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
65806 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 That brings back memories. My grandpa drove for mayflower and had that exact toy truck at his house for us kids to play with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fancyvern Posted Tuesday at 05:55 PM Author Share Posted Tuesday at 05:55 PM Did you play the truck to death? That is what I did to the red tractor trailer when I was a kid. I cut the tabs off where it mounts to the frame so it can tilt like the real ones did! I found the one that is shown here in Missouri about 15 years ago. It sets up on a table collecting dust. This is the only one I have ever seen. If I ever see the red tractor trailer set up I would probably try and get it also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
65806 Posted Tuesday at 10:56 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 10:56 PM I’m sure it was worn down to nothing but I know it was identical to yours. these two survived and my mom has them at her house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barnsfull Posted Wednesday at 12:00 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 12:00 AM I have the red one in very played-with condition. Missing the rear trailer doors. Not near as pretty as the mayflower version. Found it at an estate sale sale maybe 6-8 years ago. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fancyvern Posted Thursday at 04:47 PM Author Share Posted Thursday at 04:47 PM The mayflower tractor trailer looks bigger. The tractor and trailer is square corners and not round. I'm guessing it is newer. The red tractor trailer sure brings back fun times of playing with them. My little brother had one also so we did a lot of trucking! We would go up town and buy a bag of cement and and fill our wagon with sand and go home and make roads to drive our big rigs on. Thanks for the pictures and the feed back.
