Nice to see them making the new rams. I saw matchbox made a 2014 silverado but I haven't seen them anywhere for sale. Can't wait for a model of a 2016 f150 now either

Was only able to find one matchbox silverado out of the four stores I checked

Gotcha. I ordered 10 or so at once so shipping was OK. Running out though lol cut a couple and modded a couple. Have plans for a few more.


These Greenlight Rams look good too! Wish theyd do a 14 GM. Matchbox ones are Matchbox quality.

Ram is closer. Kept the stock frame with some hidden mods. Everything seems to dry fit well.

Have a couple more Durastars and dually beds. Trying to make this one sit a lot lower. I think the rear wheels need to tuck up in the bed a little. Bed will have to come down a touch like the white one. Opinions?

I be mirin dat Yukon max.

Did this today.
Gonna go back and lower it more but it rolls like stock now.
Also bought a few 62 c10s on eBay, since I haven't found any locally at all.
Definitely doing one like this..
minus the patina. Gotta try to get my hands on some real riders. Wide white walls in particular. And some nice looking "billets".

If you guys find good models or sources of scale wheels with deep lips, cencal lifted style wheels post them up please because a ton of my builds are on hold since I can't find wheels I like on them

Badass. I can find any good wheels around here because Walmart, target, etc. Don't sell any big time muscle, dub or anything like that anymore and our toys r us closed down several years ago.

I've had the same problem /\ The walmarts and targets have really narrowed down their selection of diecasts as well as the toysrus too. If I want a specific model it's impossible to find usually

Yupp. EBay has everything but the prices are outrageous. Especially after shipping.

Did find these at target today but for $20+ each. No thanks.

Our Toys R Us sucks. I guess kids play with shitty toys now a days. I can remember when I was 6-12 with my dad in the semi we would travel to the US and stop at Targets Walmarts and Toys R Us. The selection was wicked! Then again I was smaller so maybe it seemed bigger

 

[Dakota]

Lol I remember when we had a toys r us and they had a huge selection of diecast. Tons of cool shit. And even our Walmarts and target had good selections. Now all they have is matchbox and hotwheels pretty much. But all they have is shitty hotwheels.

My local walmarts and meijers have a pretty decent selection of some cool diecasts. Im probably going to start playing around with them since winter isnt ending. Lol. And my kids love those trucks

 

[maxh]

I checked our Toys R Us on the way home yesterday, curiousity got me. Never been more disappointed.

 

[Dakota]

Got these in the mail today. Finally found a decent deal on eBay so I bought em.

Blue paint looks cool ^ never seen that color combo

Shortened the Durastar frame and tubbed one side of the bed. Dry fit looks good. It'll be abit of work to make it sit that low on its own.
