A long, long time ago I snapped up multiples of these toy-like, c.1/64 firetrucks for practically "zero money."  

As I recall, they were part of a Reader's Digest promotion (???)  I would assume they're still worth "zero money,"  but they're kind of cool anyway. With some effort, details (and windows) could be added. Pictured are a 1914 Knox-Martin, a horse drawn pumper, a 1924 Buffalo, 1938 Ward LaFrance, 1948 Task Master and a 1974 Mack, just to name a few.

Anyone else zap these up?

@david-green Yeah, 95% plastic with "a bit"  of metal here & there.  Each model has its own little commemorative box.   Again, collectively... they're not worth much but I like 'em.
