Here's something I posted back in 2017 and deserves a second look now that we're talking about these small vehicles. It's Pyro's Army ferry boat. Bill Hanlon's "PLASTIC TOYS Dimestore Dreams of the '40s &'50s" says this was made from the late '40s until the early '50s. It has wheels underneath for running on dry land, but I haven't tried putting it in water to see if it floats. I've seen these in bright color schemes as well so they performed civilian as well as military duty! It measures 7 1/2" (19.05cm) L x 2 3/4" (6.98cm) W x 3" (7.62cm) H and includes four tiny U.S. Army staff cars. Enjoy! Opa Fritz

Pyro U.S. Army Ferry Boat - OD HP
Here's a cool little boat from Pyro, the U.S. Army Ferry Boat. Hanlon's "PLASTIC TOYS Dimestore Dreams of the '40s &'50s" says this was made from the late '40s 'til the early '50s. The olive drab hard plastic boat rolls on land and floats on water. I've seen these in multiple, bright color schemes as well so they performed civilian as well as military duty! It measures 7 1/2" (19.05cm) L x 2 3/4" (6.98cm) W x 3" (7.62cm) H and includes four tiny U.S. Army staff cars. Enjoy! Opa Fritz and Oma Bettina
