Heres one for Hgs notes

and a couple more

Paul, you make me jealous every time you post pics of your collection. Nice addition. Do you do the customizing on the Green 69?.

hgs_notes · 09-03-2007, 10:20 PM

Paul, I had no idea those stamped steel ones came in different colors. I'd never seen anything but the blue. Nice collection, very cool. Could you post a picture of those ones to the left of those. You have the Bell Pioneer truck and some hot wheels, but they look custom, I don't recognise them.

Here are some better pics of my recent finds:
These zylmex ones lost their stripes or decals, and the yellow one has a broken rear bumper.

Here are some shots I always wanted to take to show the varied scales. Some just ain't right.

I wish I new how to make it focus through the full depth of the picture.

You could take the picture from further away, so that the distance between the closest and the furthest model is much less than the distance from the camera to the models. Then with your photo editing software, crop around the models and zoom in real tight. If your resolution is high enough, it should turn out OK.

**FleetsidePaul** · 09-03-2007, 10:55 PM

Heres a old pic without the Pioneer truck, but nothing else is different, not really anything too unusual, the Napa truck is the same as the Bell System Pioneer truck.
I have only seen one Red stamped steel KJ truck and thats the one I have ..it is different, it's packed different (you can see in the photo)
I've got two of the Blue factory ones (Fremont, and St. Louis) and am looking for the other two. They are tough to find and pricey when you do find them.

I'd never seen the napa one before. The search is on.

**FleetsidePaul** · 09-03-2007, 11:04 PM

Dang Mike, you got a really sweet collection going...I didn't know the Zlymex trucks came in other colors too

**FleetsidePaul** · 09-03-2007, 11:29 PM

Yeah..well as a matter of fact I do, but I don't think anyone wants to drink it since it's about 30 years old. but hey your welcome to come over and take a snort

90\87Formula · 09-03-2007, 11:41 PM

Thanks. I've got some empty cans stored around here somewhere.

Thanks for the tip. I'll have to try that.

90\87Formula · 09-07-2007, 03:14 PM

Finally got my new Jada High Profile 72 Cheyennes in the mail today. I also got the 57 Suburbans, I collect them too. I think I've got 8 different ones. All 1:64 scale.
Notice in the pic that the base/wheels on the 72's swap-out perfect with the older Jadas 72s. The 57 Suburbans swap-out with the old 57s also, but I didn't have any extra to show.
57s won't swap-out with the 72s though.

Cool. I think the slammed mountain rescue may have some issues getting over the pass in an emergency, though.

Now the just need a set of stock height base/wheels.

90\87Formula · 09-08-2007, 10:53 AM

We'll just send out one of the other high rollers.

Hey robert I have a policy to not bid on items that a board member is bidding on.. So let me know.. You found it you got 1st dibs..

90\87Formula · 09-10-2007, 07:17 PM

Not a problem. 99% of the auctions I go for are Buy It Now. I hate waiting for an auction to end. If I post an auction listing up here, I won't be bidding on it.
