Picked up this one yesterday in St Louis at the local Gordman's (a home accent store). I was glad the wife wanted to stop in there... It's a Johnny Lightning, Working Class Trucks & SUVs, 1965 Chevy Pickup Fleetside 3. Sorry for the pic...

I want one.I love the stock looking ones.

Looky what I won on Ebay,circa 1981...$7.95 w/shipping:

**special-K** · 12-31-2007, 01:57 AM

Dazed & Correct...

**FleetsidePaul** · 01-02-2008, 05:01 PM

Tim you are so right putting slots on the Dazed and Confused truck. I've been saying that since it came out that that is what it should have had (like the movie truck). What were they thinking with those cheesy wheels????
Heres my latest..its a promo for step vans...I thought it was cool ...and a little different.

**special-K** · 01-03-2008, 07:07 AM

That is cool.Where are the back-ups

.Is it pressed steel?.

**FleetsidePaul** · 01-03-2008, 11:03 AM

It is cast... kind of like a big tootsietoy.
No year on it but it must be old because it says "Made in USA"

spudly · 01-03-2008, 06:17 PM

Found these today at Target:

Also picked up the Dazed and Confused '72 at Wal-Mart for $10 on clearance.

**Classic Heartbeat** · 01-04-2008, 09:56 AM

Have you seen these? I have about 12 for $3.50 each. They are Hotwheels 62 Chevy Fleetside trucks. Sorry for the bad pictures, but it is a cool looking truck. WES

Andy4639 · 01-04-2008, 10:23 AM

Well I found these at Wally World this past week in Garden City SC while at the beach. I haven't found a green one yet but...

This was my son's Cub Scout car we built. He found it this week at the beach. I don't know how it ended up there. I know it's not Die cast but it's cool to me & him! We came in second with it.

Just a shot of the cabnet in my bedroom with some opened stuff.

hgs_notes · 01-05-2008, 07:34 AM

Andy, what are those two on the front left in the last picture? Red with tailgate lettering and look a little bigger than 1/64 scale.

That is a Hallmark delcration for the tree I got and repainted. It's only one the cabnet has mirror's in the back side of it.

**special-K** · 01-06-2008, 01:53 AM

The red Fleetside w/upper moulding and tonneau?

Andy4639 · 01-06-2008, 03:38 AM

Yea that's the one. I did a few mods to it also like the bed cover. If I get time I'll take a better picture of it this weekend. I'm in the middle of tearing a golfcart down right now.

**special-K** · 01-06-2008, 04:06 AM

Cool Scout racer.It has a vintage look already.Except for the ESPN decal.

special-K,

Can you tell what year model this truck replicates? It is hard to tell by the picture and I only care about '67-'72. I won one on Ebay last night and have recieved an email from the guy that was outbid.

**special-K** · 01-06-2008, 05:56 AM

That`s the 67-72 style.I only have one other of this casting and it has a GMC grille.I think this one has a Chevy grille.This one came out in`81. There are later style trucks,too.

Hook'em · 01-06-2008, 06:20 AM

Thanks. It was so hard to determine since I could not get a front view.

Also, thanks for the heads-up. After I saw your post, I checked ebay and found one to bid on.

The link below should turn up several different listings.

http://search.ebay.com/search/search...p=1%26fsoo%3D1

I received my two yesterday. They are great looking trucks.

For those who want one, the ebay prices are not out of line as they were 14.99 a piece from Hot Wheels.

90\87Formula · 01-06-2008, 07:36 AM

Yeah, cool color. I finally received my correct one today. The seller sent me a 69 Pontiac GTO the first time. He did send money for shipping it back though. There were only 7,631 of the pickup made. They numbered on the back of the package. Mine is 3477/7631.

Hook'em · 01-06-2008, 08:55 AM

Mine are 7453 & 7455. I didn't even notice that on the back.

72BlckButy · 01-06-2008, 09:31 AM

Looks like I'm going to have to head to Target to see if I can find the 4X4's above...

90\87Formula · 01-06-2008, 10:31 AM

I just got home from Target. I found one each of the High Profile Red 72 Cheyenne and the HP Blue 57 Suburban. They had a lot of the Johnny Lightning diecasts marked down too..

This website needs to produce a custom tampo limited edition.I always wanted to do one,but couldn`t justify the quantity.This sitr has the power,I think.

Does anyone else collect custom imprinted Hot Wheels?I just won a`53 Chevy Pickup:Lime green w/Rt66 logos,made for a Rt66 celebration in Barstow,CA.I have some from rod runs,advertising,clubs,etc.The 1/24th banks are cool,but Hot Wheels are even cooler`cuz they`re so small.

I agree they need to do a custom logo HOTWHEELS. Maybe even a DUB CITY TRUCK 1/24th scale.
I did these logo's off the paint on computer then bought some decal paper at Wally World. Printed them out and placed them on it.

**special-K** · 01-07-2008, 11:07 AM

That`s really cool.I love that stuff.I`d pay good money for a custom imprinted model.
