Re: Die-cast 67-72
Those are cool racing models.The Nascar kits are from the last of the real stock cars,IMO.It`s typical for a collector to have overlooked the truck kits.They were less exciting than hot rods,muscle,and race cars.That and the fact that trucks have become way more popular makes truck kits some of the more expensive collector kits to buy.
This thread has so many pages now it`s an aweful lot to look through.I posted my display earlier,but here it is again:  I`d pay serious money for this kit.It`s a variant of the`69 kit that you never see:  Here`s a more current picture with a couple more 67/72s added:

Re: Die-cast 67-72
I look around in here a bit but seldom post since I have little to add(I know I always hav something to say)just haven't done models in years and have very few die cast compared to most of you.Anyway since I've been laid up I pulled acouple of old model kits out of storage to kind of have something different to do.(you can only read so many new posts a day,read so many books and avoid Okra for so long then ya gotta do something).Anyway I was brousing the web for model tips and ran across this.I thought i would share
http://www.modelroundup.com/mrcategory1032.htm Scroll down to the 70's part of the list.I know many would like o do a Blazer and thought they had discontinued the kit.I haven't ordered one yet and doubt my modeling skills will stand up to the members here,so I'm waiting to see if any of you build a cool cruiser from this kit.

Re: Die-cast 67-72
Right here! You have come to the right place. I would wait until Charlotte. There will be all kinds of die cast there or at least in the past there has been. I'm planning on buying some there I hope.
Look through these pages and I have some stuff for sale or trade. What size do you want? 1:25, 1:64 hotwheels size, 1:18 there are a bunch of sizes you just have to look. E-bay is a good place to search also.
