Hi Everyone, just looking through some of my collection, those I'm able to get to anyway, and noticed these Yatming Chevy LUV pick-ups I had, so thought I'd take a few pics and post them here. You'll notice I included the Zylmex Datsun pick up (far left 1st pic), don't laugh but I thought the front looked similar at first, because I knew the LUV was an import rebadged as a Chevy, just didn't remember which and was comparing. Well since I got online I was able to find it was an Isuzu that Chevy imported. Either way, it's neat that the toy companies did these little trucks. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Thanks for checking them out! |

Nice. Could I see a pic of that white 65 Mustang in the case behind the trucks? I've not seen that tampo before. |

Sure, when I get home from work I'll get a pic or two for you, I do remember I bought it new just about 7 years ago at a Meijers store up in Michigan, so it's not a very old issue. Edited by Douglas, Oct 4 2013, 09:24 AM.

Hey guys, I posted a new thread with the Mustang pics..... http://swiftysgarage.net/topic/7108896/ I'm not sure I have anything extra special in either of these brands, but I'll try to get some of my other Yatmings and Zylmex posted this weekend. |

I have to say that I like the Zylmex Datsun pickup better than the new HW one. It's stock,not modified, and the only add-on being a camper top. |

Me too. I like stock looks better. While I must say the HW version looks closer to the real thing but the Zylmex one has its toyish charm, and the camper shell is a nice touch!

Ah, I see it's purple like the pirate 260Z. Cool either way with a lot of other nice Zylmex. |

neato trucks yeah GM must have a contract with Isuzu cause I seen Isuzus rebadged as Chevy & GMCs! I just took a pic of a Isuzu Hombre & that is a rebadged S10/Sonoma I was reading a magazine & every few pages was ads for the Chevy trucks, GMC trucks AND Isuzu trucks! all the same exact ad too the old Ford Couriers were Toyotas 1st & Mazdas later same with the later Rangers too |

Nice trucks indeed! All I have is one of the yellow ones. GM owned a major chunk of Isuzu for many years, just as Ford did with Mazda and Chrysler did with Mitsubishi. Remember the Dodge Stealth, a Mitsubishi 3000GT in not much disguise? Thus explains the multiple rebadgings that were done in the States as well as other markets. All three sold off their interests in nearly all foreign makes, which were more than a few, over the past 10 years or so. |
