Months after finding the first one, which l kit bashed into a coal dump truck, l found two more Matchbox 1937 Internationals. These trucks were everywhere when l was a kid, and l wanted another for a box milk truck as picked up milk cans at my grandfather's farm gate. John Willy, a local unwashed character not allowed to ride in the cab due to his aroma, will be depicted riding on the tailgate as he used to ride into Louisville, Ky. in the 1940's. Not sure what l will do with the second one, make a stock truck or sugar beet truck.
