randyc Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Kinda interesting to me and when I saw it after getting the NAPA 56 F 100, had to have this one as well. Nothing like a good work truck. The load in this one is fixed, like the 56 F100. I was hoping to have more parts for the diorama. I may pop the head lights and try to do silver or white on the back to make them stand out a bit more. But that will be about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Geiger Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 First Gear did some very nice Internationals. Don’t forget these! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gotta quit lookikng at trucks. I was watching an auction for a First Gear International Scout over the weekend. Came with an Auto Zone/Jada 79 Camaro and an Oreillys M2 57 210, which i do NOT need. Had to talk myself out of it. We are just about completely OUT of storage/display space. I do like the top delivery though. The pickup is interesting as well. I have a Speedway truck too. Thanks for the photos - good to see more fun stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Geiger Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 I hear ya Randy! I only buy diecast trucks in 1/24 or1/25 and only if there is no kit for that vehicle! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredRPG Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 You need this one too.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraman Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Looks good but your right about the headlights they could use a bit of work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randyc Posted September 22, 2020 Author Share Posted September 22, 2020 (edited) I do need that Econoline. My grandfather used a plain white one for a work van and I spent many a summer day in it. Sometimes riding the engine cover when I was the youngest person. THOSE LOOK HARD TO FIND>... Edited September 22, 2020 by randyc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredRPG Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 (edited) First Gear did have a blank white one out last year, I was about to get one ( I think it was around $50-60) when this popped up for an unusually low bid. Hopefully one will pop up on eBay for you. Not to get sidetracked but I got a first gear 60’s (?) International pick up to repaint and add the service bed from the mobius ford to recreate my grandfather’s Burlington Route lineman’s truck.

Just a general Econoline search and I can choose from there. I have not seen a plain white one yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THarrison351 Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Man, must be nice to have a NAPA nearby. We haven't had one in Wichita in about fifteen years or so. These are some impressive looking pieces I must say. I'll have to do some eBay hunting soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

randyc Posted September 24, 2020 Author Share Posted September 24, 2020 I think we have that, Oreillys, advance. And they are each in a cluster on one side of town. Other side has Auto zone and advance. Small town. I haven't been IN the NAPA store in years. I don;t think any of them are doing much in diecast? Oreillys has an M2 57 Chevy, but not sure if the others are even bothering to have diecasts now., Are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
