I like them, especially the all-red version. I have one Imperial, but it's a Micro Machine sized stock car. |

Thanks y'all, I think they might be in line for detampooing, and maybe a wheel swap. The chassis is very much like the High Speed/Grell/Greenlight. The casting has a few variations thought. Thanks for looking!

I've seen the two on the right, but that's the first I've seen the red one on the left. Do you happen to know anything about that one? (How it was issued or anything like that?) Looks to me like it *might* be a custom? |

Wes I bought the red-wheeled truck from a sale here at Swifty's. I tried to research the seller but most of the related pictures have vanished. Looking at the wheels, it doesn't appear to be swapped. It is definitely an Imperial right down to the Ford logo on the windshield. By the way, all can be called "customs" now, they have been detampooed and detailed. To see the final outcome see the pics in my Photo Album in Showroom. |

Micro versions exist of this pickup as well as a few other models they did in 1/64. |

Here are the 3 Imperials all detampooed. I think they look much better. I detailed door handles, fuel cap and badging with silver also.
