My lovely wife got me a new Power Wagon! Our local lumber yard is a True Value affiliate. T.V. regularly comes out with comemorative die-cast replica's having to do with the trades. Last X-mas I got the '47 Dodge VD Canopy lunch truckbank. Now they have made a very nice PW delivery truck/bank, comlpete with kegs, tarpaper, bins of hardware, plywood, and tools! These trucks are made by Ertle and are 1:24 scale. They are very accurate with opening doors,hood,wheels that steer and a "working winch"...almost as good as the Danbury trucks. The only real drawback, and I can't believe they blew this, is the are are no "Power Wagon" or "Dodge" badges. This truck is # 21 in a series, and is the clasic Red over Black. If you can't get them in your area, my lumber yard assures me we can order them in...$30.00 plus packing/shipping.
