Got a new toy - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

The local Ace Hardware owner ordered these special a couple years ago. He said there are only 12 like it in the world because it has his store on it and he only ordered 12. Not all Ace Hardware stores got them. It does seem rare to get a 67 die cast though. I like it.

mr402 · 03-05-2005, 11:11 PM

That is cool! If any were available I wouldn't mind getting one as well.

*Randy70C-10* · 03-05-2005, 11:17 PM

You won't find one like mine anymore I don't think, not 100% sure. That one was a gift from board member "Wootdog"

*bisquik65* · 03-05-2005, 11:29 PM

Thats very cool,I have a 69 die-cast one CST/10 396 motor here it is.. And i will have to dig it out of storage,I have an orignal chevy blazer dealer cast-promo..the top even comes off,very cool and don't know how rare it is..

*Randy70C-10* · 03-05-2005, 11:47 PM

Wow, look at the detail inside the cab...that's sweet!!

Rollie396 · 03-06-2005, 03:27 AM

hey that's the one I just bought today!I couldn't believe it when I lifted the hood and saw it had springs on the hood hinges, plug wires,heater hoses,battery cables,brake lines and the whole nine.Even valve stems on the wheels.

69 Short Fleet · 03-06-2005, 04:33 AM

Bisquick65, where did you get that 69 from and do they come in colors?

*bisquik65* · 03-06-2005, 08:54 AM

Yes They do come in different colors,and i got it at a show in knoxville tn not to long ago..The guy that had them makes custom 4x4 ones too.. I will look it up and see where you can get them,Thanks,Erick I will post my blazer one when i find it..

FRENCHBLUE72 · 03-06-2005, 12:24 PM

I just bought one of the 67 ace hardware truck's mine has prior lake mn on the cover...

hgs_notes · 03-07-2005, 12:15 AM

Unfortunately, I can't get any more. He always kept two of each and he sold me his spare. The others were sold years ago. I go through Prior Lake all the time, maybe they have some more. I can stop and check. Mine cost me 39.99 plus tax.

That 69 version is the coolest die cast I've ever seen. I have a Franklin mint 72 with the MN Vikings theme. I don't think it has as much detail. Its in the back of this picture.
