Can anyone help me identify the maker of this toy road grader? It measures 10 1/2'' long. It is made of die-cast/pot-metal. The tires are hard rubber. There are no markings or numbers on it anywhere. It is not a Hubley. I don't think it was made in the USA. The person I bought it from said his father brought his toys to America when he moved.
Thank you for any help.
might be a marx
It may be from New Zealand by FunHo toys. The first link shows an example from an angle similar to your second picture. The second link shows a few mint examples.

I hope you will post back with your opinion.
@ fourpeepsake - once again, you are dead right. Nice job.
Wondering if you can identify two of the three battery-operated toys I've listed on another SHOW & TELL entry?
