Re: Die-cast 67-72
Just a heads-up:
Jada is supposed to release Wave 5 of its High Profile diecasts this month. It is to include 2 '72 Cheyennes. ![]()

Re: Die-cast 67-72
Thanks for the heads up,
I'll keep my eye's open for them and my daughter looking since she started working at Wal-Mart.

Re: Die-cast 67-72
I just won a couple auctions for two die casts I never heard of. I did a little checking and found a website that has scanned a catalog from the manufacturer, circa 1979. Here's the website with the catalog:
http://www.zylmex.com/1979pg10.html Heres what I got, was only interested in the black truck in the second pic. I love finding these obscure ones.

Re: Die-cast 67-72
Why limit this to just die cast?What about dealer promos,plastic kits,stamped steel,tin,or any other replicas.Also,why not all the other years of GM trucks or vehicles in general.This is a hot topic but it`s new.I think to broaden it it would have a better chance to become a forum.Once we all show our die cast 67-72s there`s only the occasional,"Hey,a new one`s out" or someone new coming along with their stuff.
I`m just suggesting this to help give a new forum a better chance.Like a "Toy Vehicles" forum.Does anyone know of a good general toy forum site?I used to get magazines and The Toy Shop monthly classified.Surely with the internet there should be such sites. Here are some of my older Hot Wheels.I`ll gather up some 67-72 trucks later when I have more time. ![]() ![]() I love these.Check out the custom flame job(not my work)... ![]() My son took the middle roadster apart and painted it yellow and the interior black.He loved yellow vehicles back then.This one was green with some loud tampo all over it with a red int.He was 8 when he did it.Never got around to gluing it up,though... ![]() 3 more... ![]()

Re: Die-cast 67-72
I found these at Wal-Mart yesterday. Not sure if they've been out for awhile or not, but I've never seen them. They are 1:87 scale. I have 4 of these and 3 of the 1:64 scale, too.

Re: Die-cast 67-72
90/87 Formula, where did you get this one? I can't even find it on ebay. It is a Loc Riderz isn't it?

Re: Die-cast 67-72
Not Loc Riderz, but made by the same company. I found two of them at one of the two local Walmarts. Sold one here withing minutes of posting for sale.
Here's a packaged pic I took from Wes's thread. Here's a link to it. He had some for sale. . http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=250384 I just looked at that thread and there is another 67 also; white with green and black. First time to see that one.

What I typically do is save the images and make a page for a binder I keep with as much info on a toy as I can find. Then when funds are available and I can find the things I'm looking for, I'll bid. That new RLC and the treasure hunts, in the binder. Some Hwy 61's, in the binder. Those stamped tin factory trucks for each of the truck plants, in the binder. Now that we have this thread going, maybe I'll post a couple things I'm looking for. Some people might have extras, especially for some of the more vintage items.

Re: Die-cast 67-72
Ok,
I changed the title to make it OK to list everything. Special-K, I think your right it should be for anything that has to do with wheels on it. I have a bunch of the old NASCAR stuff to get out and put on the wall. Share anything that roll's!!! Great suggestion

Re: Die-cast 67-72
I have a zillion 1/24 scale diecast banks all stashed.Ok,I exaggerated...more than 500,at least.These were real hot then faded away,almost.They`re still made,but nowhere near as popular.I went to Texacos right after Thankgiving every year,got the Daytona and Sturgis ones before the events.I was on the sucker list of alot of the producers.There was Eastwood,oil companies,ag related,automotive,on and on.They were doing matched sets where there was the regular version and then the short run.Had to get both.I tryed to stick to Chevy vehicles,but you had to get the whole series if you were serious and I did.My next house will have a bar/rec room with a museum of all my stuff.I love opening a box and sliding them out to take a peak at the nice paint they had.

Re: Die-cast 67-72
Been working on the wall since the real truck is at the body shop. Got some rare stuff to show you. Well they may not be rare but not everyone will pay the kind of money I did for 4 cars.
These are the Boyd Coddington Collection it took me almost a year to collect the cars that it took to get this collection but I did. These were membership cars and the Brooks & Dunn cars were given to me at a concert. My brother use to work for them.

I thought I would link to the other thread on a new Hot Wheel (mainly so I could find it easier).

Re: Die-cast 67-72
I have a request:Could someone please order an extra RLC`69 for me since I`m without plastic until I`m divorced?I expect to pay over the listed price because they are an exclusive and worth more on the secondary market.And,because it costs to be a member which makes them more than the list price to members.
ps:No comments on my custom painted coupe? SeeTen,got Byway Man? (& Hiway Man?) ![]() ![]()

Re: Die-cast 67-72
As far as I know I have em all! And yes I like your custom painted coupe! Some people claim a nice custom is worth more than a Treasure Hunt car due to it being one of a kind. I also have almost all of the 57 Chevy variations except for about two.

Re: Die-cast 67-72
Somebody say wrecker. This has the wrecker and 4 other models in it.
Remember a model already built with missing parts is like owning a real truck that you have to find all the parts for. http://cgi.ebay.com/5-1960s-Chevrole...QQcmdZViewItem http://cgi.ebay.com/2-Vintage-MPC-Ch...QQcmdZViewItem http://cgi.ebay.com/Resin-grill-and-...QQcmdZViewItem
