Another Sanitation Truck! Structo never seemed to run out of various cabs to use with the same bed. In 1968 the identification number was changed to 268 and the cab door lettering was changed to red.
#492 Auto Transport – 1967-68
Now this is an Auto Transport Truck! Oddly enough it was offered during the same years as the smaller version (#331 pictured earlier). But, this one looked real! Simply a gorgeous truck.
Just like the big boys, the ramps on this truck could be positioned in a multitude of ways. In terms of realism, this may very well be one of the best (albeit a little fragile) toy auto transports ever made.
I have no information on the date of this truck, but 1969 seems a reasonable guess – it doesn’t show up in the 1968 catalog. It is mechanically operated as shown below. Original price tag: $3.22.
