Vintage Tonka Tonka Mighty 4×4 #14 (black) “$349 for all or make offer for individual cars/trucks………. There are 44 vehicles, so the price doesn’t seem all that bad. I’d love it if you could post some pics of this Jeep and see if any of the other guys have any info on this thing or anyone has ever seen one like it.” I’ve taken the some of the pics with a few more common Jeeps (Tonka,Marx,and the small JH Millstein Glass candy container Jeep) to show the crazy size comparison. Jeep seems to be a mix of wood and metal fenders, windshield frame, underside, and most of the small parts as well being metal.
