**special-K** · 12-29-2007, 02:51 AM

I just lost a sealed MPC `69 Chevy/Open Road kit on Ebay.I had a maximum bid at the crazy high price of $126 and some snipe from Japan came along and paid $151.I would never have paid that and really didn`t want to pay what I bid.It was started @$99.00 and had one bid there.I had it at $105 until the last minute.I`m kinda glad he over bid it so much.There must have been quite a few snipes on that one.I know it all comes down to the last minute.But you`re a true snipe if you never even show your face until the end.I will hold off bidding if there`s no action beause I don`t want to draw attention to it as a hot item.But I always place a bid on anything I`m after before the final minute.Oh well...

The blue one with flames probably has not hit the pegs yet. Probably in the next couple months. The trucks and blazers that I can find on the pegs right now are:

red/black/white '67 - 20tis at Wal-mart
'72 Cheyenne High Profile - Wave 5 at Wal-mart, ToysRUs, and Target
Silver '69 Blazer - ToysRUs
Coca Cola '69 Blazer - ToysRUs
'72 Dazed & Confused - Wal-mart
'69 Custom Chevy T-hunt could be on the pegs, but I have never seen a T-hunt on the pegs.

Everything else can be found on e-bay.

**special-K** · 12-29-2007, 04:45 AM

I think the blue one is a Hot Wheels Collector Club exclusive.Not available in stores.

72BlckButy · 12-29-2007, 05:23 PM

Picked up this one yesterday in St Louis at the local Gordman's (a home accent store). I was glad the wife wanted to stop in there... It's a Johnny Lightning, Working Class Trucks & SUVs, 1965 Chevy Pickup Fleetside 3. Sorry for the pic...

special-K,

Can you tell what year model this truck replicates? It is hard to tell by the picture and I only care about '67-'72. I won one on Ebay last night and have recieved an email from the guy that was outbid.

**special-K** · 12-31-2007, 01:57 AM

Dazed & Correct...

**FleetsidePaul** · 01-02-2008, 05:01 PM

Tim you are so right putting slots on the Dazed and Confused truck. I've been saying that since it came out that that is what it should have had (like the movie truck). What were they thinking with those cheesy wheels????
Heres my latest..its a promo for step vans...I thought it was cool ...and a little different.

**special-K** · 01-03-2008, 07:07 AM

That is cool.Where are the back-ups

.Is it pressed steel?.

**FleetsidePaul** · 01-03-2008, 11:03 AM

It is cast... kind of like a big tootsietoy.
No year on it but it must be old because it says "Made in USA"

spudly · 01-03-2008, 06:17 PM

Found these today at Target:

Also picked up the Dazed and Confused '72 at Wal-Mart for $10 on clearance.

**Classic Heartbeat** · 01-04-2008, 09:56 AM

Have you seen these? I have about 12 for $3.50 each. They are Hotwheels 62 Chevy Fleetside trucks. Sorry for the bad pictures, but it is a cool looking truck. WES

Andy4639 · 01-04-2008, 10:23 AM

Well I found these at Wally World this past week in Garden City SC while at the beach. I haven't found a green one yet but...

This was my son's Cub Scout car we built. He found it this week at the beach. I don't know how it ended up there. I know it's not Die cast but it's cool to me & him! We came in second with it.

Just a shot of the cabnet in my bedroom with some opened stuff.

hgs_notes · 01-05-2008, 07:34 AM

Andy, what are those two on the front left in the last picture? Red with tailgate lettering and look a little bigger than 1/64 scale.

That is a Hallmark delcration for the tree I got and repainted. It's only one the cabnet has mirror's in the back side of it.

**special-K** · 01-06-2008, 01:53 AM

The red Fleetside w/upper moulding and tonneau?

Andy4639 · 01-06-2008, 03:38 AM

Yea that's the one. I did a few mods to it also like the bed cover. If I get time I'll take a better picture of it this weekend. I'm in the middle of tearing a golfcart down right now.

**special-K** · 01-06-2008, 04:06 AM

Cool Scout racer.It has a vintage look already.Except for the ESPN decal.

**special-K** · 01-06-2008, 05:56 AM

That`s the 67-72 style.I only have one other of this casting and it has a GMC grille.I think this one has a Chevy grille.This one came out in`81. There are later style trucks,too.

Mine`s the same way...GMC grille and chevy tailgate.The "Pioneers" (Bell Telephone)one I have is like that`too.

Hook'em · 01-06-2008, 06:20 AM

Thanks. It was so hard to determine since I could not get a front view.

Also, thanks for the heads-up. After I saw your post, I checked ebay and found one to bid on.

Hook'em · 01-06-2008, 08:55 AM

Mine are 7453 & 7455. I didn't even notice that on the back.

72BlckButy · 01-06-2008, 09:31 AM

Looks like I'm going to have to head to Target to see if I can find the 4X4's above...
