Bump models or Diecast?

Post by thrush544 »

Does anybody know of any? I know there were some early Matchbox bumps.

there is a conmmpany that sells them on ebay , one is a resin model adapted from an AMT/ERTL 73-79 f-series model kit, and there is a body made from vaccum formed plastic for the REVVO Max offroad R/C.

also There is a holiday issue Santa's rides from a few years back that included Texas and texas's ride was a candy apple red or arctic ice blue over Wimbledon 4x4 bump.

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~

A look at a glass Ford truck. My late Father had it in his room.

That's a nice '40. Dad's got a blue ceramic '48 that was probably made by the same company, sent to him last summer by a friend in California. Here's a couple of links to threads covering bump plastic and diecast models...
