Vtg 1970s TONKA Fire Engine Truck W/SWIVEL AERIAL LADDER Pressed Steel
Item History & Price
This TONKA fire and rescue vehicle is shiny red, super clean and works great. It measures 24" long, 8.25" tall and 5.5" wide. Model number 13203 is marked underneath, at the front.
Noteworthy features include a wide range of very detailed decals attached to the truck on all sides and the roll-out, swiveling, extension ladder. The length of the ladder extends to a length of almost 3 feet -most definitely aerial!
CONDITION: Excellen...t played-with condition. All components are original and only one is missing- a ladder which hung on the vehicle's right side. Wheels rotate as they should and truck moves easily. Decals are all fully intact, without marks and firmly attached. The ladder raises easily by turning the rotary wheel and and extends just as easily using the metal crank. The swivel function is very smooth and moves the ladder left and right - on either side of the truck. The red paint on this vehicle really shines. There is very little paint loss -mostly on bumpers- plus a light surface scratch here and there. Note the scratches and cracks on the plexiglass windshield. Finally, there's some sticky residue (on the missing ladder side of the truck) -this should come off very easily with Goo Gone. I had planned to clean if off, but my efficient partner had already boxed up this item. These condition issues are all "cosmetic." None impact the structural integrity or functional capacity of the toy in any way. This truck is strong, substantial, sturdy, clean and completely odor-free. Ready for play and display.
