The Aurora or copies were of a White cab over tractor with box trailer with refrigeration unit and a Ford tractor with tanker trailer. The White and trailer are a shade small compared to Ertle/Winross etc and the Ford and trailer are a tad large compared to same. They show up on Ebay from time to time. A box trailer, no cab, was on recently. Sold for $11 or 12 but complete units usually $20 or more. Stan
