I'm not sure. I haven't taken it out of it's "garage" yet.

Blue Beard · 12-16-2004, 08:55 PM

For that price he deserves the squirrel cage under the hood..

Brainchild · 12-17-2004, 01:59 AM

lol I ain't knockin it ,looks better than mine

Rollie396 · 12-17-2004, 02:15 AM

looks a whole lot better than mine too.What scale are those ones?

454_72_4X4 · 12-17-2004, 04:29 AM

I'm not sure of the scale. It's about the same a a HotWheels or matchbox car.

kamikazegmc · 12-18-2004, 06:01 AM

i think hotwheels ant ect. are 1/64 scale

jalopy tz · 12-18-2004, 11:40 PM

I also have both 1/64 scale truck's, these thing's are nice. I think I paid less than $2.00 buck's for them. I'm looking for the larger die cast truck's like 1/24 scale. Does anybody have any pic's in this size preffer 67's if any, or any other year. "jalopy tz"

Rollie396 · 12-19-2004, 04:39 PM

If anyone knows of a 1/18 diecast of our trucks I'd sure be interested too.

MeanGreen · 12-19-2004, 10:44 PM

Looking for a good die cast myself. This one would do if it was not a team logo truck. http://www.danburymintsports.com/xq/...alcategory.htm

454_72_4X4 · 12-20-2004, 12:49 AM

Hey, That second from the last one looks familiar...Hmmm...Have you been in my shop!!!LOL

That's a mighty fine collection. How long you been collecting those?
I'm gonna keep an eye out at Wal-mart for the Johnny Lightning truck. Thanks for the info.

pinkneyss · 12-20-2004, 12:59 AM

I've had the Blazers for 4 or 5 years, ever since I got my real Blazer.. I just recentely started buying the trucks. I usually pick up 1 or 2 whenever I go to a swap meet..

I passed on the blue Johnny Lightning at Wal Mart last night.. I picked it up & my wife yelled at me "PUT IT DOWN!!".. I think she bought it for me for Christmas becuase she never tells me I can't buy something..

454_72_4X4 · 12-20-2004, 01:22 AM

I think they should come out with a Muscle Machines 72. That's be cool!!
I've got a couple of Chevelles and a Vette Muscle Machines.

jalopy tz · 12-21-2004, 11:36 PM

"Pinkeyss" Nice collection you have there. I love the "ACE Hardware Truck" just picture this thing lowered with the white wall's and original cap's that truck would look sweet and also the post office panel. I also like the yellow and white "Old School Truck". But there all nice. I also collect "Road Rat's" they have a couple of old chevy's.

784X4GUY · 12-21-2004, 11:44 PM

Hell I aint knocking them for sure, they got a better paint job then my truck's got. lol
