| #8410 - U-Haul Maxi-Mover - 1974 |
The last Nylint U-Haul truck appeared in their 1968 catalog. Then in 1974 the truck above suddenly
resurfaces with the 1965-style cab. The next year it was replaced with the new Chevy-style front end.

A new feature is the roll-up rear door. Very

| #9400 - Econoline "U-Haul" Pick-up and Trailer - 1967-68 |
Note that the enclosed trailer does not have any fenders - perhaps a cost cutting measure. This was
Nylint's last U-Haul truck up until 1974. A very nice-looking set!

| #9401 - Econoline "Haul-It" Pick-up & Trailer - 1969-70 |
Virtually identical to the U-Haul set above, this toy displays completely different decals. It is now
referred to as the "Haul-It" set. Perhaps Nylint's long-time agreement with U-Haul expired.

The photos above are included here to try to capture the slight color differences between these two
sets. The Haul-It truck is slightly redder than the U-Haul truck.
