After fruitless meandering whenever I get dragged out shoping, I finally found a suitable bargain in the toy section at Target. These 1/32 scale Shell trucks in three styles for $4.90. I bought two shown here, and the third is a small petrol tanker, also useful for race tracks.

Had to have the tow truck -

Then I went back and got this one with a canvas cover to make into Farmer Windsor's transport -

They are branded as "40's Ford Motor Truck" by Golden Wheel USA Inc.

cammer - Shellharbour Target, so not too far away from you. They had the servo sets too, but I didn't think it suited my scenic themes. Others may find them useful to kit-bash as an old scrutineering bay for example.

Knoath - if not your Target stores then maybe some other part of the Shell-Coles-Myer empire.
