Discontinued??? 72 Chevy Fleetside model? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

72chevyLWB · 07-18-2002, 08:28 PM

I went to order one and they said check back next week. So I went back and they said its discontinued because they couldn't get one. Is this true? Does somebody have one they would sell?

*Gee_Emm* · 07-18-2002, 08:36 PM

Like one of these?

Check the net they are out there, or ebay.

It's been out a while now...since 97 or 98...something like that anyways.
I thought it was a rather crappy mold, and gave up on it 1/2 way through.
Not up to there normal standards.

GEE EMM,
Where did you get that 70' model?

Edmond · 07-19-2002, 08:38 AM

I found one at http://www.wellydiecast.com/
The doors look a bit silly, but at least there is one available...

Cya,
Edmond

I've got one of those 72 AMT models. The quality is pretty good IMO. If you watch ebay you'll find one in the $20-$25 range

You can fine them In Wal-mart and K-mart.

I have to agree with longhornmail on this one, the '72 "Fleetside" model wasn't all that great. It must have been a older model, it was not very detailed at all. I think it had about 80 pieces. If you are just getting into the hobby, it is a great beginning model though.
Also, i have been looking for one for quite some time, at Wal-Mart, as well as several hobby stores, and i haven't been able to find one. I haven't seen one for sale in 3 or 4 years.

It is a 69 model, stamped steel
