Reel Rides update.... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

bad_turbo · 06-21-2007, 03:56 PM

I often stop by different Wal-marts when I'm traveling around southern california to pick up any left over Reel Rides trucks laying around or JL's, but when I went by the Wal-mart in Duarte at the Mountain ave exit off the 210 freeway, I didn't have enough money! They had "15", yes I said "15" of the 1/24 scale Dazed and confused trucks. Like I said, I didn't have enough money, so I opted for the DUB city 5-deep package with the 1/64 scale '72 Cheyenne in it. Picked up 2 different ones so I would have the yellow and white truck and the black one with flames. Couldn't fine a pic online of them but maybe someone else, like Wes, could post if anyone is interested. Even the Jada website didn't have a picture. I will have a computer again soon to start posting pics again.

I wish I could find the black one. I haven't seen any of those five deep sets for quite some time.

I just picked-up two of the blue and white '67s. There are less and less of the Dazed and Confused trucks around here.

**FleetsidePaul** · 06-21-2007, 06:05 PM

did they have any more Deep 5's

**Already Gone** · 06-22-2007, 10:58 AM

I've never seen a Reel Rides model here in Western Canada but I found a black Dazed & Confused 72 Chev 1:24 on Ebay a couple of months ago and bought it. I paid 24.95 and I dont know if that is what they sold for in Walmart but I' didnt care cause I'm an avid diecast model collector and just had to have that black Dazed & Confused 72. So try EBay if as a last resort.

**FleetsidePaul** · 06-22-2007, 12:19 PM

They are $19 bucks +tax at Walmart so your Ebay price wasn't bad.

Longhorn Man · 06-22-2007, 05:08 PM

i spent over 70 bucks a few weeks ago on blue blazers, dazed and confused trucks. Walked away from quite a few more there.
I used to have theyellow and white froim the 5 deep, never seen the black one with flames... I'd give my left lug nuts for that!

Here's some pic's (I already had the loose black flamed 72)

Longhorn Man · 06-22-2007, 09:59 PM

70c10 · 06-22-2007, 10:07 PM

Your not kidding, Diecast and Models are my weakness and I blow way too much money on them!

Jim, I got the #8 off Ebay...real cheap..(don't you just love it when nobody bids against you)

They come up from time to time and the guy that does them is real good to deal with
