I know that Jada made a 1/24 scale blue & white Cheyenne SWB. It will have narrow whitewalls with chrome smoothies,but pretty darn close.

Re: This is what I am wanting in Die Cast

You should build one,or have someone build you one from AMT kits. They'd need the "1972 GMC Stepside" (SWB) and a "1972 Chevy Fleetside" (LWB),as well as one of the short Fleetside beds they sell on Ebay. The only difference will be the door panels. They may even still be the earlier design in the kit.

Good idea Tim,,,for some one younger and good eyes and steady hands.. I am not to bad but bad enough to know It isnt the thing for me to try,,
I will wait and maybe find one in a shop around here or once in awhile I get on ebay,,or even better is if any of you die cast guys want to give me a heads up for what I am looking for ,,that would be really appreciated..

Re: This is what I am wanting in Die Cast

There are guys who build models to your specs. I don't have anyone's info off hand and have no idea what they charge. But,there's a promo dealer I talk to at Carlisle that I've talked to about that with. He has some guy he knows,and he'll make the promos to match your car. Promos only came in a couple colors and with no detail painting. Anyway,just a thought.

You know,Hot wheels now has a casting of the early Toyota 4wd out now,so that one is possible. I'm pretty sure there's a version of all those vehicles mentioned. You just have to become a toy collector to find them. Warning: Don't do it! (just keep casually looking and stay a normal person)

Re: This is what I am wanting in Die Cast

Hot wheels has a similar version of the Toyota. I just picked one up the other day from Target. Here's a link to some really good pics of it.

Here's a link to the Impala. It looks like you will have to get it from ebay or an individual. It's from the 2004 series.

I just picked up that tan Toyota the other day.

They also have that casting in the Retro Entertainment Series for Back to the Future.
