New 67 Diecast

One of the places I shop for diecast just sent me a notice for a new release

67 Chevy short fleet

http://www.diecastmuscle.com/store/T...vrolet/HI50561

A little rich for me to preorder now, but it does look sweet

Re: New 67 Diecast

Minor details aside - I'd still buy one, just not for the price they are asking

Re: New 67 Diecast

Seems like for that price you could get some mags on that thing instead of those turbines..

Yeah, I guess they are, BUT they are lousy mags. This thing deserves more, not warmed over pie plates for wheels.

Johnny Lightning has a 68 Chevy SWB out there that looks really good compared to this one. They are hard to find.

Re: New 67 Diecast

Ok, since we're nitpicking, I'll bite too.... a stock truck would have the C-10 badges on the fenders and the turn signals were amber stock, not clear

I like it but I don't like the price, nock it down $30 and I'd consider.

I still stand that the 67 fenders were sans side markers.

Re: New 67 Diecast

People just want to make money.They don`t feel the need to know squat about what they have.They prolly heard the`67s were the hottest,so they call it a`67.
