Looking for Diecast models 1970 f250

Post by kevs250 »

I've been looking for a MONTH to get my boyfriend the exact diecast model of his truck, a 1970 f250 camper special..
wanted to get it for Christmas, and so far I've had NO LUCK! Does anybody have any ideas...I'm pretty lost. Everybdy seems clueless as to what I want, and I thought this would be the last straw..Thank you Thank you:)

Good luck! So far, nobody has made diecast models of this series of trucks. I think there will be a long line-up of fordification members ready to buy, when they do.

You can find them for the 50's and older, and newer than ours. I haven't found our years. I have looked and can't find a plastic model kit of my 1st car. 1949 Ford 2DR coupe.

I saw this on ebay today:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Rapitoy-Argentina-F ... _500wt_764
It's not very big, but it is a Bump and I've never seen a standard size die cast of one. I would have bought it if I had found a 1:18 or 1:24.

Hey that's not to bad at all, pretty cool blue, too. I like how they made known that it's made in "Argentina" haha. Just can't believe they don't make those years on the trucks. They are the best trucks:) I fell in love with him & his truck, hahah. Thank you guys for replying.
