Pieter, Of course your right about a model A being the same size as a
Peterbuilt, but it's almost a 2:1 ratio in width. I do know that modern
(60's and up) trucks can be very large, so comparing the new to the old
probably has little meaning. My father-in-law, who was a farmer,
replaced his old 50's International pickup with one in 71 and there was
quite a difference in height, but not much in width. I used the PBL
dump truck to make the door opening for the dump/scale area in a grain
elevator I was building (before the Hartoys, Erthl's grain truck, and
the Railmaster stuff) at the time. It's was more than a little tight!
