I have two of the red Corvette Stingrays from just after they switched to
blackwalls with the same tampo design but colour-swapped (one I got at
Value Village and one, in better condition, I got as a RAOK), but I am
still looking for the orange one, which was the definitive Corvette
Stingray colour/tampo combination when I was a kid. (I already said I had
the Golden Machines version of the same tampo design but with barely any
paint left, just enough for me to tell what it used to be.)
I got a couple of the Broncos in pretty good condition. The one in best
condition might make my all-time top 10 Value Village finds.
I also did not know about the blue Z-Whiz. Somehow I thought all the
Z-Whiz'es had volour-swapped versions of the giant Z with diagonal DATSUN
on the hood, but I see that's not the case. I like the new Datsun 240Z
casting, but the original Z-Whiz still looks slightly better to me because
of the headlight groove.
+Steve Brandon That's a great comment Steve...and a ton of info too...thanks very much for all of that...sounds like you do get some great deals at value village at times...I have been into a few..but they always seem to have bags full of toys but usually just a bunch of broken stuff lol
lol...Doc...I looked at my collection after you left that comment and your 100% correct...I have old/new/matchbox/hot wheels/jada/maisto/chevy/ford/toyota/nissan/cars/trucks/monster trucks/18 wheelers/motor bikes/planes/helicopters/1/64/1/43/1/87 etc etc etc lol.
I know right. I think it has to do with the new Google+ I just updated my channel. They're always doing something. lol Happy hunting my super friend in da house. PJ
