george 53 Posted September 27, 2008 Posted September 27, 2008 Clay, my Bro, when didja chance yer Name? I wasn't sure if we had 2 Clay's or not. Let me look an hopefully I can find the catalog that I bought my earthmoving eqip. from, an I'll send ya the addy. But they're NOT cheap! I think I paid like 35/ 40.00 bucks just for the BoBCat.
Clay Posted September 27, 2008 Posted September 27, 2008 last night it changed. Thats alot. I am looking for more like a big forklift.
Harry P. Posted September 27, 2008 Posted September 27, 2008 last night it changed. Does this mean you're AWOL now???
RodneyB Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 This one isn't DieCast but I think it semi counts. These are more for the Big Truck guys And And Here's a DieCast Ford F-650 Good size 5th Wheel Hauler
MrObsessive Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 Like Harry, I'm mostly a builder------but when a nice diecast catches my eye, sometimes I can't resist! Here's a 1/24 Shelby GT-350 from Danbury Mint via GMP. VERY nice casting and details, but there are a couple nits I have with it. The door shut lines particularly on the driver's side could stand to be a bit tighter, and also the fuel lines underneath I don't think are quite placed right for this era Mustang. But nevertheless, a very sharp piece that's sitting nice and pretty in my display case. Yeah I could've built this one-----but this will suffice for now! Those wheels BTW, are the best representation of the '67-'68 ten spokes out there I've seen! GMP sells these separately (last I knew) and they're definitely worth the money!
RodneyBad Posted February 21, 2009 Author Posted February 21, 2009 (edited) Hard to tell if that Stang is 1/24. Good looking Car.. Well I finally got my FlatBed. I was hoping to get it first but Lownslow beat me to the punch. Good looking Flatbed. Tool boxes open. Doors and hood open. Bed slides back and tilts. Wheel lift lowers and raises Cab looks a wee bit undersized tho.. I ordered mine through http://www.caseysdiecastcars.com/ It's new and not listed but I've Em the guy and have had fast returns.. I bought a few Mopar Diecast through them too. Spike is working on One Right now.. Edited February 21, 2009 by Zukiholic

Spike Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 41 plymouth truck 46 dodge tow truck (work in progress) 87 chrysler 5th avenue (work in progress) and a diplomat (the th ave started out as the green diplomat)
Jon Cole Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 Let's see if I can at least get this post in line with the rest. Tho I didn't take the pic of the '39 Lincoln "Sunshine Special", it's a beautiful die-cast of FDR's Limousine. I have all 9 Presidential Limos currently available from Yat Ming. The following is my photo of the re-bodied '61 Lincoln X-100 refurbished for LBJ after the Kennedy Assassination. This car was originall painted the same dark blue metallic that Kennedy's car was, but Johnson wouldn't accept it, so it was again repainted black. -Jon-
Jon Cole Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 I guess I'm a sucker for the Ford GT or GT40 in any shape or form. This one is a 2006 GT-R by One Badd Ride. -Jon-
Jon Cole Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 Got to dig those big finned Caddys! And this one... well, if I had a dozen built Monogram '59 Caddys in my display case (but I don't), I would have still bought this one! -Jon-
Spike Posted April 8, 2009 Posted April 8, 2009 87 chrysler 5th avenue (work in progress) FINISHED!!! http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=19383
RodneyBad Posted June 26, 2009 Author Posted June 26, 2009 A cool Die Cast Ford F-350 4x4 Utility Truck It seems a wee bit small but it is 1/25-ish
Harry P. Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 It's made by a company called Unique Replicas. http://www.howardsamusementparkandtrains.c...LK-TRUCK/Detail Here's the full lineup: http://www.phillymint.com/diecast/Unique.htm
FujimiLover Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 (edited) I've only got a small collection of 1/43 scale die-cast models. My dream would be if AutoArt would make 1/18 scale die-cast models of the KS cars in high-detail. I'd be in seventh heaven if I had found a 1/18th full-detail Koenig Competition in brilliant Italian Red! MMMmmmmmm, yummy! So, sorry, all I've got are 1/43's and a couple of Hot-Rod's in 1/64 scale size. So I guess my most interesting would be my 1/43 Smart Four-Two car. Tiny! Another killer 1/18 die-cast model would be my Dad's AEROCAR from the 1950's! Would be sweet if Franklin Mint or Danberry or somebody like that would make one. Edited June 26, 2009 by FujimiLover
Alfa Posted June 27, 2009 Posted June 27, 2009 This is one of my best. http://public.fotki.com/Alfa1972/model-car...as/col-diecast/
RodneyBad Posted July 21, 2009 Author Posted July 21, 2009 (edited) Love the StepVan Dave. Lownslow I take it that you Repainted the Monte Carlo or polished it? Looks good. Hey FujimiLover I'd count your Koysho Mini-Zs. I've had no luck finding any good ones on Ebay that are in the US. I'd like to see yours. I'll even dig out mine. One day A little something for the Portland Oregon folks. Jada Dodge Charger with some Decals I found on Ebay. Awesome decals.. He accidently sent me a larger set of decals but turned around and set 1/24 and let me keep the others. So I mixed them to see which set look better on the Jada Dodge. The Jada Dodge is a little bigger than 1/24 I have No Idea how to paint the light bar yet. 1/24 scale stripe and 1/18 scale Roof # and letters & Rose 1/24 letters& Rose and 1/18 stripe I think the 1/24 decals looks right. I only have enough to do 19 more 1/24 and 11 1/18 scale Cars I have enough Decals to play with Edited July 21, 2009 by Zukiholic
Lownslow Posted July 21, 2009 Posted July 21, 2009 thanks, nah didnt polish or anything just swapped the wheels which i did again today for 22s. im thinking in keeping that car subtle with a dark metallic red. that cop car is looking sweet
Spike Posted July 21, 2009 Posted July 21, 2009 hey zuk, if you take the lightbar off, can you paint the inside of it with some transparent paint? or is it solid?
Guest Mustang3.8 Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 I have the Ford Supercrewzer in black, I also have about 50 Die-cast 1/18 scale cars, includeing two Vipers, a rare Hugger Orange 1970 Chevelle, a '72 Chevelle convertible, Starsky And Hutch Gran Torino, '67 Shelby GT500, and a '36 Mercedes SpecialK Roadster with butterfly hood and opening rumble seat, and that's just to name a few.
RodneyBad Posted July 23, 2009 Author Posted July 23, 2009 hey zuk, if you take the lightbar off, can you paint the inside of it with some transparent paint? or is it solid? It is hollow but thick. Trying to find a 1:1 pic of one What will be blue, Red and were would the clear ones be? Mustang3.8I have the Ford Supercrewzer in black ?? 1/24th? I dumped alot of my 1/18 scale.(had about 30) too big and heavy to keep moving and waay out of scale for 1.24
