New 67 Diecast - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Palf70Step** · 02-23-2007, 06:28 PM

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

Longhorn Man · 02-23-2007, 07:14 PM

looks like a 68 to me

Yep - also was there even a Cheyenne trim package in 67?

Longhorn Man · 02-23-2007, 11:44 PM

nope. Not at all.

**special-K** · 02-24-2007, 08:05 AM

Thanks for the heads-up!
Nitpickers rule!blue bowtie?Body color in grille?5-lugs?I guess it`s a mild custom anyway.

Joe67 · 02-24-2007, 09:59 AM

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

Longhorn Man · 02-24-2007, 11:52 AM

well, the proportions are outta whack too, but yeah, I would buy it if it was reasonably priced too.

piecesparts · 02-24-2007, 12:21 PM

Yep the side markers and the large glass, kinda gives it a 68 look.

toms68cst · 02-24-2007, 03:09 PM

Hard to tell but it looks like a later hood too.

FRENCHBLUE72 · 02-25-2007, 10:04 AM

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

Longhorn Man · 02-25-2007, 10:57 AM

ummm... turbinse ARE mags.

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.

Longhorn Man · 02-25-2007, 11:36 AM

Well, I'll agree that those ones look like crap.

67ChevyRedneck · 02-25-2007, 12:03 PM

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.

FRENCHBLUE72 · 02-25-2007, 12:04 PM

slotted mags would make that truck......those turbines belong on the general lee...

piecesparts · 02-25-2007, 12:23 PM

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

That's why everyone says it is a 68

**special-K** · 02-25-2007, 12:30 PM

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.
