Reply to "Automobiles/ Trucks 1/43-1/50 scale let’s see them"

I have a couple of those Ertl 1937 Ford truck tractors ( what happened to Ertl?), and wonder what it was like trying to move a loaded trailer around with a measly 100hp engine?  (Since writing that l have read about 12 speed Brown-Lipe transmissions.)  With mechanical brakes on Ford cars in 1937, stopping one might have been harder than starting.  A six cylinder Chevie may have been worse starting, but l would like to see some pre-1941 Chevie cabs, AND Macks, Whites, Sterlings, Fageols, and a very long list of other pre-war truck makes.
