i know we were kicking around(by we i maean Keith and the other moderators) The Idea Of having a set custom made.I think the prospect of getting licensed by ford to do it though was going to cost.

I don't want to give em a heart-attack. That is what would happen if I answered the door in the buff. Heck it almost scares me to death when I step out of the shower and look in the mirror.~Mancar1~

re: 1970 F-100 Matchbox
A fleetside was made too,it was green and was the kennel truck that came with a clear topper and four dogs. It was made with dividers in the bed for the dogs but I had a rough one that I ground down the dividers and cut down a piece of plastic to resemble a bed cover along with a repaint and some detailing.

re: 1970 F-100 Matchbox
That's a nice one, dude. I see that 79 on the left, have you seen the walmart red and white version? Sure is amazing what they've got in diecast these days. Picked up 2 johnny lightning 64 Falcons, sedan delivery and ranchero, at the last car show I was at. Now if we could only convince the powers that be at the big diecast companies to make one of our trucks...

re: 1970 F-100 Matchbox
That's funny Mike. It appears our trucks will be the absolute last vehicle to be duplicated in any scale. I did hear from a model maker, but it would take minimum 5 grand for them to make one. Too rich for me at this point.

Well, if any of you boys win a lottery, you know where we expect the first few grand to be spent

I've got a that stepside Matchbox. Very beat up. When I started playing with it it was already in rough shape. Mine is an older version with the skinny black wheels that MB used to use. I think I "painted" it black with a magic marker. I also have the fleetside one. Its yellow. Lost the topper years ago. Mine has a turntable in the bed that rotated with the back wheels. I think it came with a lion that spun around on the turntable. I'll have to go up in the attic and did 'em out know that I've got a real one.
