This is a vintage Doepke Model Toys Barber-Greene Wheeled Bucket Loader. I believe it is #2013. It is made of pressed steel with rubber Firestone tires and was manufactured in the 1950s. It measures approximately 22 inches in length and 12.5 inches tall. Please note, shipping may be a little high due to this items weight of nearly 12 pounds.
Condition: The overall condition is very good. The wheels all roll fine. The steering wheel turns the front wheels. The crank properly operates... the buckets and conveyor belt. The paint and decals are good with some wear and rusting. There is wear from the chains carrying the buckets rubbing against the metal body chute. You can't really see it because the chains and buckets hide it. For full information on condition, please see the photographs. I do my best to identify the truck number and time of manufacture, but I cannot guarantee that they are correct.Additionally, I do not have the level of expertise to determine if an item is all original or has been restored/repainted. Please make your own determination based on the description & photographs and feel free to ask questions.This item is from my late father's collection. He had hundreds of these types of old toy trucks. They include manufacturers Structo, Buddy L, NY-LINT, Model Toys, Ertl, Tonka, Hubley, Smith Miller, Wyandotte, and more. Everything from fire trucks to construction trucks to delivery trucks. I'll be selling all of them as time allows.
