Is there someone other than Jordan making teens or '20's vehicles that are realistic and somewhat affordable? I'd like to build some log trucks from mid '20's up to maybe a '29 Model AA Ford.
1920's Vehicles

Sorry to say there's not near as many as there were in the late 60s/early70s. Scale Structures Ltd. was another big one next to Jordan then but they went under in the early 80s. You can still find their kits---some at quite a premium, others more affordable---from time to time on Ebay. Woodland Scenics has a log truck as well as several other 20s vehicles you might want to look into. Not to toot my horn but you can see some of the modified fire truck and hearse kits I've used from Model Power on my webpage. Maybe that'll help your log truck---I can see the fire truck kit making a great base to work from.

Try getting some modern vehicles. I'm talking cars made in the 90's and today.
Unless I want a town populated by Atlas Ford Taurus and F-150, or make a European based model railroad, its almost impossible.
Though, Boley does make some nice HO scale modern trucks. A little toy like, but with some detailing and a little weathering they look pretty good.

I have all the SSLtd Kleiber kits. At least 5-10 of each. Also some "On Trak" and "Lee Town".

Not really...
But Jordan does make a wide variety, which is good. WS has a few white metal vehicles that are good, but other than that, the pickings are pretty slim...Andrew
