Beauty Snag. Keep on Truckin'!
I'm not seeing it listed in Petretti's. Maybe it's too small for me to see. Are you sure it's not the repro versions from the 1990s?
Thanks Dave just happy to make the occasional addition to the collection.
Ray, it's on page 288 , 12th edition, and yes it is small, but mighty!
Repro, are you kidding me, I have'nt bought a repro since the last time :)
Cool truck, what year was it made?
Nice Bernie! You snuck this by us all!
Thanks Perry, just a little thang, but kinda cool anyway!
