WOW! One of the best you will ever see on eBay or elsewhere. Classic 1950's Structo Pressed Steel Army Missile Launcher GMC Truck with rotating missile launcher.  Not sure this was ever used, but if so, only gently.  Other than some very minor aging to hub cap surface and other very minor imperfections, this looks almost new!  There is a small scuff to decal on one side just above the 2nd S in missile.  We only sat the plastic bolt on launcher on bed for pictures, not sure if it was ever actually mounted as there are no turn marks on bed light you would expect if launcher was in place and turned.  We gently tested spring loaded launcher and it worked, but we did not put any powder caps in them as we did not want to damage toy.  From our research it appears these were made from 1953-1958 and it is listed as model #906.
The box has a good bit of wear and discoloring as do the instructions but they are included as shown in pictures.  Note: The instructions for these are extremely rare and we did not see any other that have sold before on eBay or other.  And, we think these are very early ones as they appear hand typed and a very basic design.  We tried to photograph from all sides for your consideration.   One end of box is missing a flap as shown in pictures.  Please review all pictures taken and use zoom feature if needed.
One of these Structo #906 Models just sold for 2 on eBay in Nov 2020 with a better box (but no instructions), but truck was much the same as ours.  We are pricing accordingly.
