Die cast model truck
 
I was hoping to buy a die cast model of my 1979 short box and cannot find anything. I was even looking for a plastic model and all I can find is a 4x4 model kit.

Does anyone know if or where I can find anything?

The diecast i think your out of luck,A model you could take 2 or 3 and make yours in the end with the parts.

I built this one for a copy of my truck, mine is a long bed so I had to make the bed longer.

Thanks for the reply everyone. I found the revell kit and if I can't find anything else, I will use it. The blazer is neat though.

And I assume everyone noticed the mirror on the red model is upside down?

Interesting take on mirror installations
