Early Christmas for me, found 2 72s
Long
 fleet and short  step.I wish I could drive them!!!!!!! Found these in a local hobby shop. I have not seen any of our truck in model form in a long time, so I decided I needed to get me an early Christmas present.

Krue evidently it is a discontinued model from 1990
It is AMT Model #6081 http://www.modelroundup.com/amt20009.html Did a search and most want more than $45 for it. Guess I got lucky. I'll keep an eye out for one.

I found the GMC Stepside sealed for 10 bucks at a flea market this summer, they're still out there, just not real easy to find. Looks like AMT brought back the 72 long fleet finally....that's cool too, I'll have to pick one up.

yup, the 72 has been reissued by AMT...I have one of the originals from the early 90's??? I also have the stepside, but I haven't seen another one since I was a kid. Hopefully wal-mart will start to carry the new 72...they are much cheaper than hobby shops or e-bay. shouldn't be more than $8.99........

I saw the blue and white 72 in a hobby shop north of Seattle. They wanted $13.00 for it. If anyone wants it I can buy it for you. With taxes and shipping it will cost you about $20.00.

The also had the USA #1 monster truck but unfortunately it was based on a late 80's model. (Maybe I should buy them both and mount the 72 on the monster truck's chasis . . . h'mmm)
