Yes, the Amt/Ertl 1/32 Trucks are super. I have the Coca-Cola Volvo with trailer, and the hood opens to show the engine. Ertl did that with the 9670 as well . Both rigs are nicely detailed that way Vs the Monogram 1/32 trucks. Also the Ertl, amt/ertl trucks have full rubber tires unlike the Monogram kit's that the tire has no back side wall's on. -

Jim there were two issues of the 4300 eagle as well the Highway and a race truck. Should we also add any 1/32 Model trucks such as Ertl's International 9670 and the Volvo Coca-Cola truck w/trailer, And then there are the Monogram/revell 1/32 trucks as well as the even smaller AMT trucks.. -

On the International's The Transtar F-4270 (4200) was 1973-1977, The Transtar 4300 series ran from 1977/78 . You also missed the S-Series 2575 & 2674 kit's by Ertl which was started in 1977/78 Release's . Note the S-Series was known as the Springfield Special By most other IH truck Factories.... -
Looks very much like a Palmer copy of a '59 Impala....

200 MPG carburetor book
ranma replied to Greg Wann's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
THE Late Tom Ogle invented a device that vaporized the gas before it went into the carb, There is documents online that proved that his product did work. He had a '70 Ford Galaxy that he got 100 MPG on using his invention. -
Lost my car due to an accident. Tore the front end apart, but didn't blow the air bags. Busted the plastic on the raidiator, Pushed the battery to almost touching the Coil packs, But the old beast started right back up, and drove it into the median, And towed from there. The only good thing is I came out unharmed. Let me say those 95-98 Lesabre's are tough car's!

No, They are promo's which are also the same cab,bed, hood, interior,glass, bumpers,grill, and tail lights that came in the full detailed kit. The hood is just pinned shut, but can be pulled off to expose the engine bay. The real only difference between the detailed and promo is the chassis . If you have any of the full detailed kits, just check the cab closely , and you will see the front pin holes for the front hood pins. If you turn the cab over you'll find the chassis screw post, and where the pins were removed for the detailed chassis's front suspension. The AMT Ford F-150 kit's are the same between the promo and detailed kit. In fact I think that many of the 1990's promos that amt produced were also produced as full kit's. These include: Ford Taurus, Chevy Corvettes, Camaros, Pickups, Beretta,Pontiac T/A, Ford F-150, ranger pickup, and Dodge stealth.there were some promo;s never issued as full detailed kit's as well , Two off the top of my head are the Chevy Tahoe, and Dodge Ram pickup's...The Snapfast Plus line was just Promo's that you put together Simular to smp/amt Craftsman kit's that were build your own promo.
