#4300 – U-Haul Rental Fleet – 1961
Rental train! This 3-piece set was very popular (made from 1961-65) as well as versatile. You could haul a lot of stuff with it. But, try to imagine what it would be like to pilota rig like this across country!
The Ford crest was prominently displayed on the nose of these trucks. The rectangular rear quarter decal was apparently used only on the first year (1961) U-Haul pick-ups. They seem to be quite rare.
Another first year feature was the use of "U-Haul" decals across the tailgate and front panel of the trailers. These decals, however, are occasion ally found on later model examples.
#4300 – U-Haul Rental Fleet – 1962-65
This rental fleet is identical to the one above, but it does not have the rear quarter panel decal. Since the trailer tail gate decal is still present, this may be a 1962 production toy.
The exact meanings of the black markings on the box are unknown. Nylint did a nice job with realistic graphics on this box. Note the rear quarter panel decal is still pictured, as it was in all their 1961-65 advertising.
