 Here's a great Texaco piece to add to your collection. If you remember those days, you or your parents could pay less than $4 and get one of these trucks. Two different companies made these, Buddy L and Wen Mac. This is the Buddy L version and includes the ladders and hoses. It looks like one rung on a ladder is broken, but most of the stuff missing on these is here including the box. $150 shipped.

The box is 26" and the truck just fits in it so I'd say 25"

Spare parts for these show up on ebay all the time. Except for the fire hydrant that you hooked your garden hose up to....

Truck went at the Tommy Mack Swap Meet, so I no longer need the bumper. Thanks.
