I must say, they did a pretty good job with those larger scale toys. Fun to have around but oh boy, do they take up a lot of space!

MARK, where did you find that toy? was it a model, or did it come already built? was the trailer included or separate?

I bought from a guy on ebay, he had 30 or 40 GI joes? I'll have try to find his emails/?He was a in Vietnam in 1972 during the ruckus then.I have more than one,I have also a WW2 jeep with a GI joe Marine in the then combat utilities.He bought already built? , added all the marks of a dirty war jeep.The trailer came with it.The GI joes people have all the stuff (eBay?) to have them look realistic
It all was part of the GI Joe stuff.The 1st GI Joes came out in 1963/1964? The original ones are worth a lot of money.
I have a Sailer GI Joe but he lost his arm or something in the war.The trailer is missing now, so I am wondering what happened to it???
I can send you better close up pictures if you want

I picked up this MUTT during my Great Smoky Mountain Convoy.

I love the details inside

Ken- How does the number match reality?

I know it is missing the steering wheel. I am looking for the part now on ebay.
Thanks

No steering or pedals, must be one of them newfangled self driving models. Needs a windshield to cowl gasket too. Now you know I have to snoop around in any garage I see. :roll: :twisted: What is attach to the big air cleaner next to the tool box?

Mark- I do not know the scale, I was at the end of the rally and went to load up my jeep and in the next field was a vendor of Ford products. As my jeep is a Ford, I had to have it. It was only $20 without the steering wheel.

Rickf- The item next to the air cleaner is a MEP-002. It was included in a M416 trailer that I purchased for $400 from the GSA. It needs some repair but it runs. It will be for sale soon. I need some space in the garage to store another M416 that needs to be restored. I turn over 3-4 trailers a year now that I am retired. Busier now then when I was working full-time.

Thanks

I have two of those generators. One has an unknown issue. I have to swap an injector pump and see if that takes care of it but I just have not felt like going through that whole timing procedure.
