As some of you may know I run an online store for Z scale model trains and accessories. I've been selling a line of vehicles hand made by a fellow in Portugal. The detail and accuracy are incredible, especially when you take their small size into consideration. Here's a few that I have just received in stock:
1959 Chevy Impala Police Car $10.50
1951 Flxible Bus. My favorite. They come in 4 colors
$25.95 each
1961 Chevy Apache Truck. Also in these colours:
$11.25 each
1974 Cadillac Eldorado Gold or Yellow
$10.65 each
Ford C Series Truck
$17.00 each
I thought I'd post these new arrivals here first before announcing these to my Z scale customers for a change. They usually sell out in about a day so if you want one let me know asap (or order via the store). If you don't see it on the store, that means it's sold out. Most of these are one only.
Here's the link to store page showing all the vehicles I stock:
The buses (especially the blue & white one) look like the ones my grandfather had in Alberta in the 40's and 50's I think. He ran a bus line with a few buses in southern Alberta. Dad had a metal toy model he got when they bought the buses. It disappeared after my father passed away.
It was a tough toy - kids used to ride on it like it was a skate board - it was only about 8 inches long and maybe 2 inches wide/tall.
These ones are incredibly detailed for their size. Do the wheels turn?
Unfortunately the wheels don't turn. I remember Dinky had a cool School Bus in the 1950's. Our public school actually had one mounted on top of a "Safety Patrol" trophy. I wanted that bus so bad!
