Vintage Andy Gard Army "Rat Patrol" Jeep & Recast Sitters and MG Tank A - MPC

Description

Here for sale is
One Vintage Andy Gard Army
"Rat Patrol"
Jeep
in excellent condition.  This jeep is about six and one-half inches long.  Both axles are free of rust and all wheels turn when the unit is placed on the floor and
"driven"
along.  There are no breaks, cracks, or other defects on this vehicle.  Two Recast Andy Gard Sitters and a Recast MPC Tripod-Mounted Machine Gun are also included with this listing.
Andy Gard sold these army toys during the 1960's that were very similar to the much-better-known MPC army vehicles and Ringhand soldiers.  (Carzol Canada was another toy company that also sold some of these vehicles and Ringhands during that time frame.)  The metal axles used by Andy Gard on their troop trucks, jeeps, and ambulances were far superior to those plastic axles used on similar vehicles made by MPC during the same era.
These items would make an excellent addition to one's collection or diorama.   These jeeps are very hard to find these days.  Perhaps you could use this vehicle to help fill out your own collection, or as a supplement to your MPC Army Vehicles.  R

The item(s) shown in the photos here are the item(s) that you will receive.  Please look at all of the photos, read all of this description, and ask any questions before bidding as there are no returns unless I make a material mistake in this listing.  If there is a tape measure shown in any of the photos, please note that it does
not
come with the listing.
Please consider that shipping costs are typically much more expensive than many of us realize.
I will use first class mail for this sale to help keep costs down.  I use new or occasionally gently-used sturdy boxes that typically have a 200-pounds-per-square-inch bursting test rating.  I ship only to the 50 American States, the District of Columbia, and Canada.
Whenever possible, I will gladly combine shipping costs.  I do this by approximately splitting the savings for shipping on the second and subsequent items and then
issuing a refund
within about two days after a package is shipped.  Please note, however, when a package weighs just over 16 ounces that the shipping cost can be about double of the cost of sending a package that is just under 16 ounces.  Local pickup in the Spokane area is also available at no charge.
For our cousins up North, shipping charges for items delivered in Canada will be substantially more than those listed for delivery to U.S. destinations and start at approximately .00 (USD) for small items weighing less than 16 ounces.
If you need any hard-to-find Vintage Andy Gard,
Auburn, Ideal,
Marx, MPC, Payton, or Timmee Army, Dinosaur, or Space Toys, please email me and I can potentially list these items on eBay with the Buy-It-Now option to help you fill out your own collection.
I will give positive feedback once I have received the same from the buyer.  If there is any issue that comes up upon receiving an item, please contact me so that I can make it right.  Thanks so much for looking.
