I`ve never seen another slot "truck" like that and sure don`t remember them from when they were new,either.It`s packed away for now.So,are my 1/24 Ertls.I dug into my stash to take to a swap meet in April and came across alot,but not those Ertls.I may have some duplicates.I discovered those while collecting several years ago.They are far andl few between.I saw a blue one,like factory medium blue,last year.The guy wanted something like $75 for it and wouldn`t budge,so I walked.There was a time I would have,because I could have,but back then I found mine way cheaper.
Not GM trucks,but I found two boxed(old store stock) Hubleys last week.They were the orange road grader and a red farm tractor...Kiddie Toys series.I would have bought those in a heartbeat if I had money.They were $150 & $100.This was at an antique shop in this historic town and she said the grandson of the family that had a store had them there on consignment.She went to look at what he had and it was a building full.Not just toys,but all old store stock of collectible-type things,such as Christmas decorations,dished,and such.I`m going to be working down the street(see alternate tinkerings)and plan on stopping back in.Maybe i`ll treat myself to one of those peices.What I really want to do is get a shot at seeing that motherload! Even just to look.
