Vintage Vehicles Suitable for 55n3
#1
You need vehicles to flesh out the model world. I found these vintage vehicles suitable for Scale55 and 55n3.

The 1920 Mack truck is a Matchbox, Models of Yesterday. The other cars and trucks are Lledo, Days Gone By. The steam tractor is unknown and the IHC tractor is an Ertl 1/60. These are vehicles from my S scale days that were really too big for S.

Someday I will paint a figure.

What is 55n3:

That looks like a good start ! Thumbsup
I never have come to an understanding of the manufacturing world, where "scale" is involved. I would think that making cars, trucks etc. in a scale used by other models, would increase the "market". 1:43, 1:52, 1:60, 1:96, 1:144, 1:72,...close, but in many cases, not close enough. I guess "close" is the best we can get, short of scratchbuilding everything.
We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
