The rims do look like they are probably off the Classic Gold Chevy School Bus release. The truck looks really sharp with the tampos removed! |

Thank You Harry for taking the time to do some more pics. Looks good and I need to find me one of those trucks. It looks great with the tampos off! |

Agreed. The truck looks MUCH BETTER sans the Coke tampos. Great job, Harry. Have you considered putting a set of black coloured steelies on the casting? Even a set of grey/silver coloured steelies would probably work. The Chevy truck/trailer combo that I sent to Sir Crafty had grey/silver coloured steelies on it. Maybe Zach can post a picture of it here. Cheers. Cobra |

Pic of the Chevy that Gerry sent me as a raok. ![]() I bought several copies of the Carnival of Thrills white chevy vega with white steelies to use on derby cars. They look as good or better than most other wheel choices. |

I wish I had thought of that! There were tons of them when they hit Big Lots several years ago. I did not get a single one. I was trying my best to get all of the Gold Series cars, Lightning Rods and few extra General Lees whenever I could find them. I knew I should have listen to that little voice in my head when I saw them. It kept saying you need a couple of those for the movie car collection but did not listen. |

I love it! I think white steelies would work too on this truck. I need to get one! That is so cool! |

Nice customs. I never detampoed anything before, but some casting have really been improved by taking off the extra decals...and this is one of them. |
