Re: New NAPA Truck

No, but thanks for the heads-up! I also have the black one and never knew that was being offered when I found it. My store never had any displayed, but one day I was at a friend's when I ride along to his Napa store. While hang around waiting in the store I spotted it on the top of a shelf. I think it was from the prior year at that time. I'm going straight in today and inquiring, to make sure I get one.
First Gear does great replicas. They are the ones who took reasonably priced die-cast trucks to a new level. There were the Ertl banks, with off-springs popping up, and Franklin & Danbury Mint had begun making high priced automotive replicas. 1st gear came out with something in the middle for far less money. I've been looking (off & on) for other '67 Chevy p/u replicas by them, but they sure are few and far between. I want the plain ones, not other promos. I know there was a yellow one and a red one. I like having the Napa ones since they actually use pickups to deliver parts and they are my local preference for parts
