| #406 Timber Toter - 1960 (?) |
The Timber Toter is interesting in that it used the same cast trailer first introduced in the early 1950's
on their cast cab-over line. Structo really got mileage out of some of their toys.

| #407 Hydraulic Dump Truck - 1961-63 |
Looking very much like a Nylint product, the #407 Hydraulic Dump was an exceptionally classy truck.
The dual axles with dual tires gave it that massive look - and the green metallic paint looked great too.

The spring-loaded dump lever activated the smooth, slow rising of the bed. Very impressive.
| #606 Hydraulic Sanitation - 1961-63 |
This Hydraulically Operated Sanitation Truck uses a bed that will have a long successful run in the
Sructo line. The all-white color scheme seems to be one of the harder versions to find. Great truck!
