Road Champs 1/43 Scale Diecast 1953 Chevy C3100 Goodyear Wrecker

Here's a really nice diecast wrecker /tow truck from Road Champs from I believe 1998. The box for this is long gone and the date on the bottom of the chassis is really small but it looks like 1998, which is about the time I was in my diecast vehicle buying binge.  It measures 5" (12.7cm) L x 1 7/8" (4.76cm) W x 2 1/4" (5.71cm) H and has opening doors and tailgate.

Road Champs 1/43 Scale Diecast Lionelville Chevy C3100 Pick-up Truck

Ummm, remember a few months back when we were posting all those diecast Lionel City / Lionelville vehicles? Seems I forgot one  :-) Okay, well here it is now! The truck was made by Road Champs for Eastwood Automobilia back in 1995. The Chevrolet C-3100 was made from 1947-53 and was Chevy's first major re-design effort after World War II and was part of their Advance Design series. The toy measures 5" (12.7cm) Lx 1 7/8" (4.76cm) W x 1 5/8" (4.12cm) H and has opening doors on the cab and opening tailgate. It comes with three railroad crossbucks and a diecast figure (which I've never taken out of the package). Enjoy! Opa Fritz and Oma Bettina
