  • I got a new truck today

    My wife bought me a new truck for my birthday. It's a little small, but that's ok.
    She found it at Wal-mart.

    I'll have to check my Wal-Mart for that one and add it to the red one and grey one I got from there. The price ain't bad either.

                    Looks like the paint job on that truck owes a lot to Bob Kabchef's rig.

                      This evening, my wife wanted to go to Wal-mart. So...while I was a hostage at Wal-mart, I snuck away to the die-cast display and found one of the trucks. While I was there sorting through the boxes, another adult male hostage, hiding from his wife, asked me what I was looking for. When I told him I was looking for a Studebaker, he told me he had a 46 Truck rusting away in his back yard. He lives about 11 miles from me. Small world. I will check it out next week.

                        I still haven't found one of those. Guess I've been to the wrong Wal-Mart. Next week I'll check some of the other ones.

                          Wal-mart, and others, seem to be downplaying their die-cast displays. The M2 cars are in small boxes stacked about 6 individual boxes to a carton. I found them all jumbled up (imagine that in a kids toy department) on a lower shelf and had to pick through the boxes to find the Studebaker.


                          In the same way that having a little black poodle for a buddy makes it difficult to maintain my macho masculine identity...getting on my knees at a Wal-mart toy display required me to abandon my adult dignity. However, the momentary humiliation was a small price to pay for success!

                            I have one just like yours except mine needs a total restoration.
                            If you will restore it for me I will Fedex it to you.

                              It's an addiction

                              Found a couple of additions to my fleet today at Wal-Mart; a flatbed dually and a green pickup. Still looking for that fancy painted one.
