As seen on TV

I saw this advertised today. A 1941 Flat Bed Truck, and a 1932 "Fire Chief's Coupe", $10.00 plus S&H.

Hi Dan,
I got one. Ordered it a few months ago. It has nice detailing. The coupe's hood opens with the double fold like the real thing. All cast iron too. Very neat model. It did take over 4 weeks for it to arrive.

RG,
I like the way you repainted it. Although it looks much bigger than it did on TV. It sure looks like you could drive away with it!!!!!!

Looking for information here Guy's.....
The amount of models that show up on the mint web site does not compare to the amount of models that appear on ebay now & then. I have a couple bought on ebay USA which do not appear anywhere else with a web search? Yet they have an authenticity certificate.
There are a couple that I'd like to add to the collection that I lost out on, yet I'm unable to find them else where?
1928 coach being one! I have the 1928 Landau. (1/32)

Thanks Muchly
kipper

Thanks I check ebay daily in the US, Au & UK the 1928 coach I've only seen twice & with shipping to the UK both have gone above my limit. It just seems strange that they appear on ebay & nowhere else!

that should have been national motor mint.

I once went to the national motor mint website and contacted them about the chevy collection, I inquired which vehicles were in the collection and if were able to purchase only certain ones - their response was to purchase every one ( they just want your money ) and hopefully you would end up with the one you want, no list as to which was in the collection

I just wait till a different one appears on ebay and if interested I bid on - currently standing at about 15 different chevies

Kipper,

I just typed "national motor mint" in the ebay search thing like 38653 suggested and found quite a number of the "little" cars. 1 :43 as I recall.

I don't specifically remember seeing a 28 Coach, but there were a number of 'older' cars. Many in the $3 - $5 starting bid range. Maybe that's a different way for you to check out ebay, which you say you do daily. Anyway, I just thought I'd let you know. It might be worth your time to check it out.

Bill.
