I had the dump truck and grader as a kid, and loved them.
Had the grader, dump truck, cement mixer, and the clamshell bucket. Also had the wrecker and the snorkel that connected to the garden hose. Still remember Mom screaming when we decided to pump water through the open second floor bathroom window.
I was the good kid.🙂
Those things were tough! You could kill somebody with that dump truck.
Just saw in Costco the other day RC versions of the dump truck and excavator. Going to get grandson set up early. Not all metal like the originals, but some. Pretty good likeness of the equipment. Pretty cool if you can use the excavator to load the dump, then move the dirt somewhere else in the yard.
I had the Dump Truck. Funny that i can still mentally feel that 65 years later.
Dump Trucks must be popular, my favourite toy by far.

I’ve saved my dump truck, bulldozer, and front loader all these years. Now I need to find someone who can restore them for my grandchildren.
