John-T-53 Posted July 26, 2022 Report Share Posted July 26, 2022 1:87 scale, that's 'hella mini size' (in the parlance of Nor-Cal). - from a non-bookfacer.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plymouthy Adams Posted July 26, 2022 Report Share Posted July 26, 2022 as 1/87 is HO scale for train...then it only goes to say it would be for anything else that would make a scale rail setting/display Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ggdad1951 Posted July 27, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2022 maybe a few other B3/4 owners can chime in with a request to make those years? I dropped them an email inquiry about doing so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Fix Posted July 29, 2022 Report Share Posted July 29, 2022 Did anyone notice the wheels are large 6-lug split rims? Also, the description says "assembled in Los Angeles and Stockton, California and Warren, Michigan." San Leandro is over 62 miles away from Stockton. How dare they get such minor details wrong ?.

billrigsby Posted July 30, 2022 Report Share Posted July 30, 2022 Just got done ordering a few, the hood ornament looks a little oversized compared to the rest of the truck, maybe it's just the way the picture was taken? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
