I was at my local Quality Farm and Fleet store this evening and just for grins, I looked in the toy section. Well low and behold on the shelf is a toy Power Wagon! Well I looked around and this was the last one so I got it! I asked the store manager and he said there were no more in stock that they been selling as fast as they come out. Well anyhow the price on the box was $29.95, BUT it was on sale so I got it for $20! Well anyhow the truck is a 1:30 scale model of a 1947 WDX Power Wagon. It has a winch on front, hood that opens and tailgate that opens. It is detailed pretty good and even has the NDT tires on it as well as spare mounted on outside of cargo box. It is red in color and the only thing I noticed that was not correct on the truck was the box looks a bit on the short side for what the truck should be. The model is made by First Gear They have a website at www.firstgearonline.com I have not checked the site out yet. By the way, the truck was made as a Quality Farm and Fleet exclusive. Now QUality Farm and Fleet also owns: County Post Stores and CT Farm and Family, so you may be able to find one of these truck thru them as well...Happy Holidays!
